Murtaza - You have the same issues with gearing that we do. When you start at 60 you are at the extreme low end of your power band. Have you tried starting in the next lower gear and allowing it to run through the shift? Then, if you can get some taller tires and stay in whatever gear you are in until 130 you will have some great 60-130 times. Your car is very fast and 8,000rpm's is nuts!!! WOW, now I can see why Josh's car has issues keeping up. Maybe we need to make some 70-170 runs and that might be better for both of us with respect to gearing and power band.

The SMG III also has 7 forward gears, no overdrive gear so it's all for speed... it's why stock M5/M6's hit 200 stock.

Well guys, its official and all posted up. Don't underestimate the power of the "little C".
60-130 is 9.37!! Not bad for a four door.

Sick times! I don't see how I can beat a 9.6 so based off your 60-130 you definitely have the faster car. As for Josh... :dunno:
I also took a video of my 60-130, not that it can be counted as accurate...

Put the taller tires on to eliminate the 4th-5th shift along with being cooler weather and we ran 8.88 60-130. YEEHAW!! Are we having fun yet?

I haven't visited this thread since page 2. I have been wondering the same thing as well. The manifold is larger, but I wondered if we left the stock manifold and replaced with some 200 cell cats, how much less HP would that combo make vs K2; provided that KLEEMANN will still offer the K2 tune for existing K1 owners?

Boost Gomez - "Great runs! Your updates keep inching me toward MHP over the other tuning packages."
Trust me, you'll be glad you go with MHP if thats the decision you make. They have excellent tunes and hardware and will continue to find new upgrades. They are the only ones with L/T headers that have provenly built power and now have a 3" catback system in the works. I have the race ported heads(only ones with that) and the cams will be available by the end of the year. No one else is taking this package that far. Go with MHP and don't turn back.
God Bless,
Keith Brantley

WOWOW this thread is at well over 100 comments.
I can imagine when mthis gets tires and we match up 1 of the members here with a LET tune/pulley E55 vs mthis modded C63. It's going to get fun

An E55 will need to be heavily modded to hang with Mthis. My friend has a stage 5 Renntech and we run side by side now. He's run low 11's in cold air so the E55 better be ready. Good luck!

FYI - I meant no disrespect to the E55. They are great cars. All I was saying is that it will be a good run and everyone better be on their best game because it can go either way. If they run more than twice back to back the E55 will get heat soaked. For it to be fair the E55 will require a cool down between runs or at least thats been my experience. Good luck and be safe!

Hey Guys,
Got some runs in this morning with the new MHP Cat back race version(X-pipe) and straight through mufflers and got a verified 8.46 60-130 run. Already posted on sixspeedonline!! I am stoked because that was with the regular tires and pump(93) octane fuel. Can't wait for some cold weather with the skinnies and 100 octane! YEEHAW!!
