Hoping we can get something like that going. I don't know about the cars and coffee 7am is really early on Saturday. Maybe we can all meet up and ride out to dinner one evening...


Let me know if anyone is interested we can figure out some details.
7am is pretty early, especially if you're hungover lol, BUT this is the kind of stuff you will see:

I was out til 5am that Friday and woke up at 6am to go, hungover as f*** but totally worth it. It was my first time going and my buddy (black Corvette) got my *** up after going out and was like "dude, we are not missing this, we gotta go man." Glad I listened

There are a couple of shops in Rockville I know about. Certified Auto Repair, the owner has an E55, I met him at the drag strip one night. I always bring my car to him because he is very knowledgeable on AMG's and for all maintenance. I'm sure he is more than willing to install things for you. He doesn't do tunes as far as I know but his E55 is tuned so he may be able to give you recommendations.

MB Automotive Services is also in Rockville. Owner's name is Patrick. He does good work, but is pretty expensive to go to. I have seen some pretty sick hooked up 911's, M3's, Benz, etc. hanging around in his shop though. He has a E500 that he swapped out the engine with the 5.5L AMG engine, ran full exhaust, and tuned it.

Otherwise, as far as install, DIY is my preferred method unless it's something I physically can't do. I'd be more than willing to lend a helping hand if you need it, I love working on cars.

No tuning experience with Frank but he did my last dyno when he was still located up in Brooklyn Park. Seems like a solid guy and the local ///M crowd speaks very highly of him.
