First startup with new build.

Installed a 8" Android head unit to monitor my Intercooler Temps, Engine Coolant, Trans Temp, Fuel Pressure, Voltage, ect. with AMG Performance media style gauges.



Fabbed some custom aluminum intake pipes to go in the factory intake scoops location. Dropped my air intake temps about 20F*.




Installed a Blackboost Thermostat, dropped my engine coolant and oil temps by 20F*.




Had some custom Beadlock wheels made to match my HRE wheels so I can run some 305 MT ET Street R's.

Your car is what I dreamt my 507 would evolve into.

Thank you for sharing!!!!!

Alex at Legitstreetcars is building a similar setup on his 507, pretty cool build series to watch!

You should be very proud of your build. It's exceptional in every aspect. As to the cams, if that's the factory cam on the right, no wonder they chew up lifters. That is a really sharp profile with a fast ramp to it! Are yours a similar total lift but with more duration? Less lift but more duration? I don't know which way these guys rotate, but if your spec cam is on the left, is the gentle ramp on the right side of the cam opening the intake? I am totally guessing here, but is the idea, with your blower, start opening sooner and longer because we are coming to the party early? Merry Christmas

Looking like a great build, nice work!

The cams have a bit more lift with more duration than the factory cams, the valves stay open longer for maximum airflow.
Thanks man, would be cool to see your ML with the 3L Whipple.

Ha, not gonna lie, the thought has crossed my mind! I’ve already got one 3.0L Gen5 Whipple in my stable…another one would rock! Although then the wife would want one on her Mustang too haha. Here’s the one on my Camaro:

Clean setup! Love the white Whipple!

Thank you! Runners are getting sent off this winter to be drilled for port injection… 8 injectors can’t give me enough fuel so I’m hoping 16 does the trick!

Whats next for your rig? Dyno time? Drag strip runs? Or just enjoy the hell out of it?

Nice to see you came to your senses about the hot air intakes you originally had on there. Still no filters though? 🤔

Built trans from SHR is next on the list, then maybe more boost. Going to enjoy it this winter and take it to car meets and put some miles on it!

No filters really needed on a nice sunny weekend driver, I did add turbo mesh screens to keep large debris out tho.

You're slowly sanding the **** out of that sweet supercharger. It really needs high-flow filters of some kind. 👍

If it was my daily driver I'd look into adding air filters, it only gets driven once a week. I'll pull the lid off after 5-10k miles and inspect the rotors. 👍

one of the cleanest if not the cleanest builds on MBWorld!

I agree no filters is silly. You are going to run into some added wear on multiple components for almost no benefit. But to each there own

Thanks Barry.

It'll be fine.

Filter protection aside, those intake pipes are gorgeous. Along with the SC (of course) they really clean up and transform the look engine bay.

Yeah. what Barry said. I have to tip my hat as well. Just Wow! Enjoy!

They complete the look for sure!




Got the new meats for the beadlocks delivered today.

Crazy tires 👌
definitely need to get a wide body on mine those look way too good

I love this build. Absolutely bonkers and made the E63 into something wild.

Do you have any numbers on this setup?

Got the beadlocks installed, they got the specs dialed in perfectly.

Awesome build photo dump. Looks like everything came together very nicely. Are you local to Dallas area - Top Speed license plate frame.
Wheel fitment and tire choice are spot on. Let us know how it does on the dyno.
