He ran 12.040 @ 118.92.

Thanks for the video along with the dyno figures. I am always excited to see another bi-turbos dyno figures, and yours are some of the highest I have seen. Absolutely impressive. I expect big thing to come from your car as far as numbers.

You're welcome Jay and thanks for the comments. Hopefully we'll get the computer from pulling so much power during 1/4 mile and get a 10 second run soon.

Thanks Shaun and Godspeed. RENNtech ECU and Airbox only for now. The car makes massive power with these minor mods. Night and day difference from stock. Believe it or not, the 11.18 @ 125 pass is not representative of the car's current potential. The computer was pulling power all night due to torque management intervening. With 40 less wheel horse power, the car trapped 126 mph. The guys at RENNtech have done a great job and are going to address the computer intervention issue this week.

Much different power delivery. E55 was instant power delivery. CL is more subtle, but pulls violently once on full boost. CL appears to have a looser converter. Ride much quieter in CL. No comparison relative to highway pulls and top end. CL would have destroyed my E55. Cars that were equal to my E55, I walk from.

Jay is your car as loud as this cl65? His exhaust, turbos, blow off valves seem very loud. Any exhaust work done to your cl65? Maybe that is the difference from sea level to 6000ft?

hey jude, good to see you again man. I did notice thay his turbos could be heard fairly well,i think this may be due to his intake as opposed to his exhaust which i think is stock. Yes you can hear my BOV, but my car doesnt sound quite as distinct as his

Exhaust is stock. However, the prior owner wanted to change the exhaust tips. Took it to a shop that didn't know what the hell they were doing and botched the weld where the tips and resonators come together. That might be what you are hearing. Actually pisses me off and needs to be taken care of.
