Hi, i get the car back next Thurs or Friday and then take it to my wheel guy who is waiting with the wheels to put them own so hopefully i will have a dry day on saturday to clean the car and go do a photoshoot for you.

I got the Brabus B63S kit which bumps the 6.2-liter V8 from 457 HP to 530 HP, sends torque from 442 to 479 lb-ft. They reckon it takes 0-100kph time down to 4 secs and top speed to almost 200mph. I am not getting the brakes or suspension changes (will never use the top speed in Australia and did not really need the speed delimiter but had to pay for it anyway) just the engine mods which involves an ECU remap, hi flow cats and new air filters. Very looking forward to how it sounds!

Got a bunch of stuff from Revozport too and ordered the interior CF from MAcarbon and depending on how they price it up, a couple of custom interior pieces as well.

So it uses the stock exhaust manifold and not "shorty" headers.

Patrick1975: hehe the upgrade sounds promising! anything from Brabus is awesome! very true that you won't be able to use the full potential of the top speed in oz but hey.. you'll be loving every single added bhp from Brabus.

Let us know how it goes

are your M40 inner barrels painted black or is that just the lighting?
