What's done to the turbos? Brand?

Fuel system?

When you say built... What do you mean? Just like ARP studs and forged connecting rods and some coated pistons?

GAD does fully built blocks. Crankshaft is more than likely stock, but it definitely has upgraded rods and pistons. Probably has stock heads since redline is still stock.

Just sucks that most people in the AMG world know more or less nothing about their vehicle. All these threads about people doing performance mods, you ask one question like "hey how did you get this out" or "did you modify your fuel system" and it just goes right over their head...

Glad to see someone else is in the game. I know Dime is offering some products but some people seems very upset with them currently. I would imagine on the M177 that forged rods, some coated pistons and ARP studs you'd be good for 1000BHP+

still have my stock rods and crankshaft, pistons are GAD low compression, heads are not stock they are ported and polished, high pressure fuel pump upgraded, no ARP bolts, you can’t go with higher rpm because gearbox is not tunable yet, larger intercoolers, meth spray, my times are with race fuel mix, with pump gas my car does 10.3 on draggy with meth spray, if you care so much about finding out you would have looked into the threads that I have started in the past about my build, anyways hope this answers your Q and if you want to know anything send me a direct msg I will gladly answer you

GAD have there way to squeezing the HP out of there products my block is stock

Why is 100-200 so slow? That doesn't add up at all with a 9 sec. car.

Has the standard M177 in the E63 got any forged internals, ie rods, positions?
