I was not expecting to see that under the hood.

Sweet build, it takes a lot to impress me but I am impressed, can not wait to see some numbers and hear how it drives.

Thumbs up to Weistec for having the turbo upgrades in the market, but I have had the turbo upgrades with the real down pipes from GAD-Motors since last April and they will have there hands dirty with a turbo upgrade for sure

Phew. Glad to see there aren't 2 belt driven wastes of energy under the hood there and instead 2 nice efficient exhaust-driven power-adders

My hat is off to you! Your Brabus Bullit will seem lame in comparison.
I wish you would post more videos of the old Bullit

Thanks, the Bullit is also being upgraded in Germany by GAD she will be ready soon I will make a thread about that separately soon, and trust me the Bullit is going to be a record breaker when she is done

All I can say is WOW!!

I sure hope you have someone that can work out all the electronics so it will run someday.

The physical installation can be the easy part sometimes. New tranny also?

Keith the first question I had for GAD is will it work cuz I know what kind of a hassle it is with all the coding for those cars with all the high tech going through them, and that was the least of there worries

I wouldn't even attempt doing this without knowing they are up to it and can pull it off, and she should be running hopefully mid March that's about the estimated time of completion.
