I am saying 38rwhp with a mild cut should be a no brainer with our cars.

I think Dads car has that in it now with a 125 shot. If you combine his traps last time out (before the 10.9 pass with significantly better 60' 1.62 vs 1.82) he's already at 10.5-10.6.

Now if your talking N/A at MIR it's possible with cams.

Combining the two and potentially more spray, we'll just have to wait and see what happens. Though I'm sure we all know the lower you go ET wise the harder it is to drop more time.

Are the cams best with their ported heads? I'm aiming for 10s, but want to keep it NA after I saw the GT500 blow up in front me at the track....I've got their LTs, so I'm thinking once I get the tune, with the cams/heads, maybe I can crack 11.00

Tune and cams are the 2 main things I'm interested in from MHP so that would be great info.

CAM + V3 tune --> 100whp possible?

LHTs are good but with the sound restrcitions at the track it's a no go for me...

I believe this is a test set and then the others will go into production very soon.

If you start with a stock set up I believe you can easily get 100rwhp with the cams and matching tune. However, the exhaust manifolds are really the bottle neck as we all know.

Awesome Keith! You are truly amazing and your dedication should be applauded!!!

I agree with Ahmad, 9's is very unlikely. As most know, gains aren't linear as your car gets faster and quicker. Just think, you've been hanging on breaking 10's for a while now and it's been a hard journey....I know the same exact feeling. All though there's no doubt in my mind that you will be making a run for the all time MB record soon, along with Ahmad. In my mind you guys are the only 2 in the running.

Good luck Keith and be safe!!!!

Nice! Good luck with cams. Can't wait to see the results. It's lonely at the top but comforting to look down at those beneath you

I admire your dedication on your project car. After seen how much just a engine cost for the C63 ($11000 not labor involved) I have stomach pain to think about modding my own car. You are the absolute pioneer on the C63 community as far is modding so I wish you luck.

DadsC63, curious why you chose a MBZ luxury 4-door sedan as your 1/4-mile project car and not something else? Just curious, your results are great.
