I am really confused on what is going on here. One minute you posted on www.thedirty.com about your experiance with VRP / Vadim. Then all of a sudden you hire him to install the new bullet transmission. Which includes rods, valves and other goodies mention.
2nd-Why don't you get a independant dyno before? What is the big deal with track time.

Don't you mean Dec. 6? And if you can muster a 9-second time slip in a C55, I'll buy you lunch.

You honestly sound VERY immature. How old are you? Annoying little pest aren't you? I see you don't have a single mod on your car so don't comment about these topics unless you are an envious little kid.
Vadim warned me that little *****s like you would be wasting members time by reading any of your shallow nonsense. You are a TRUE LOSER!
To all, I'll post pics of the completed project and invite any doubters to show up at the track when the car is ready.

I decided to come on this forum to get advice before I mod my ML55. I'm looking at supercharger, wheels, ecu tuning, stero system, brakes, and more. I have to do it before December 31st because of tax purposes.
I was looking a VRP since its a few miles from my house. I told a buddy and he sent me www.thedirty.com website where you wrote about him. I read you hate HPS and stay away from them too. I guess I am trying to gather as much facts as possible before I make a decision. I am not sure if you are creditable. I find you very interesting on why you decided to go to the extreme of mods. IMOP, no dis respect you sound crazy or obessed with the car. Maybe you can tell other.

Yes, I do. I am interest if the transmission is going to make a differance. I'm not a fan of the ML55 transmission. If amgsc is getting a bullet proof transmission and it works. I might consider it before I go ***** out on mods for my ml55. I dont want to buy a supercharger, ecu computer, headers and the transmission blows costing me 30k

Gonna Quit Posting about my car from now on.
Let's not get into silly flame wars.
I just wanted to share my experiences with fellow forum members but most of the feedback has been so negative, non-constructive and non-appreciated so I'm no longer going to post anything more about my "projects". I thought my positive or negative experiences would be helpful for other modding enthusiasts but maybe not so much.
To those mbworld members who know me in So. Cal. We'll see each other at the meets or at the track.
Have fun everybody.

Ok, that was a crappy representation, but I can't think of anything better.

I think you might be the person that forged my posts on that sight. You better run for your life if Vadim ever sees you. He would pop your little pea brain like a peanut.

Come on AMGSC why would I do something so childish. I did read www.thedirty.com and notice alot of people don't like you. Especially C32 owners. Instead of attacking me why don't you go to the C32 room and ask.
I have too much on my plate. But if you like me to write a comment on there about you I could. I have a better idea, why don't you go on the C32 board and ask if anyone wrote this about you.

Koru_Kinshi,
Is it possible to take a ML55 on the track?

The track actually requires a DOT approved helmet for anybody running 14s and under.
The street legal drag day is Dec 6th, Saturday 7am-5pm $20 all day and you get get 6 runs max unless it gets slow near the end of the day. I managed to get in 12 runs on Nov 2nd when the cars were thinning out. It's a pure adrenaline rush for those who haven't tried it.
There is a comprehensive tutorial/primer on how to drag on the W211 section. Wish I had read that before I went last month.
