Was cool following your story. Got pretty dramatic when the shop backed up into your car AND the tire flying at you on the freeway. Glad everything is fixed now, can't wait to see more updates and mods to your ride!

C55
Haven't posted in ages but I think that power steering issue is not common, but happens every once in a while with our C55s. I did the exact same thing; did some donuts and after I was done my PS pump felt like it died. I put in new fluid but didn't do anything and had to take it to the shop.

GL with breaking into the 12's! I hit 13.1 on 19" street tires with a tune and now I have 18" tires, slicks + kleemann headers/tune but haven't gone back to the strip. I'm thinking maybe 12.8 or?

This is a common problem with the C32. At full lock it puts too much pressure on the systems.

Yeah my brother explained that to me, it's not meant to have much load under full lock. Also to update, just finished reflashing my ECU with a Eurocharged tune. Going to run the track this coming Wednesday on drag slicks.

How do you like the tune? Was it a big noticeable difference or was it kinda hard to tell?

The throttle response is very noticeable and also the MPG.
Sadly due to recent unfortunate events I'm forced to sell the car. So if anyone is looking for a clean 06 C55 with low miles please let me know. I'm very reasonable with the price, since i'm forced to sell the car. Will come with drag slicks/spacers setup and H&R lowering springs. txt me at 916-529-3400 Thank you.
