Thanks for all the compliments... Well i got my eyes on a roof spoiler not sure if i want to shell out the loot for the Lorenser one or get a no name one. I need to get my front bumper fixed as its cracked on the botton side from endless curbing getting in and out of my driveway. Lowering springs with some swaybars is on the list. The carbon Fiber driveshaft should be out soon from evosport, so that is up there on the list. I need to get into the 12's in the 1/4mile so I'm not sure if i should get more horsepower or an LSD. I want BIG FATTY INTAKE TUBES! kinda like that VRP has for the E55. I was even debating spending some weekends making them out of Carbon fiber, Even if i cant do it an accomplish nothing it would be fun to mess around with. Cams would be cool if I new the mod would have no adverse affects on everyday drive ability and reliability. The lady has nixed the SC so I'm trying to work about that. I'm open to thoughts and ideas so if you got any let me know.

a bottle of 
cheap, easy, big HP, keep the same gas mi when not using it, instant a$s kicking at the track. I would feel a lot more safe adding nitrous to an AMG V8 than adding it to my AMG V6k. I'd say play around with a 50 shot first and see how you like it, then move to the 75, then 100 shot! To be on the safe side make sure to get the wet kit so you don't lean out unsafely.

nothing should "go wrong" if the system is correctly tuned at the dyno and all proper safety equipment is installed, to insure that every parameter is monitored and the system be disengaged in the event that there is a breach in threshold. The reason that people fear nitrous is that they believe their engine will blow if something goes wrong, correct! And this is commonly conceived from what they have heard or seen. This may be a generalization, however it is a valid one. Many younger inexperienced tuners who have used nitrous for a cost effective means of adding large HP gains, have done it for just that, a budget oriented $ per HP gain. And often forgot once the neck snapping HP is achieved, is the additional cost of safety equipment to go with the kit. this can all add up to well over a grand in extras, such as dyno time, wide band o2 sensor(s), air fuel controllers, ecu tuning, etc. Thus the open risk of a failed component in the kit, that has gone unmonitored, allowing for unsafe and dangerous operating conditions to arise.
I'm not saying there is no risk however. Things can go wrong, electrical faults or incorrect readings, mechanical issues with jets, lines etc and you can also get a flat tire and run into a wall, another car, you can get crabs from sitting on a nasty toilet....With risky behavior comes its consequences. Be safe and wear a condom, I mean er umm, with the proper tools you can be safe.

Nice wheels. Will be out there in about 2 weeks on friday night. The track runs on fridays through October, then its held on Sunday during the day. Don't miss November 1st as the new show from PINKS is going to be there filiming. The cold weather should be coming soon, I hope. Still 100 degrees today though. Keep the mods coming. Take your stock rears and spend the cash on some hoosier drag radials, that may be what you need to get in the 12's. Those nice looking wheels will have you spinning past the 60' mark.
