.....you know I was joking about the AV mods right?? Like myself you seem to be the last person to spend a dime on AV until your car dose wheelies. Hell, I'd give up my stereo if it would gain a few ponies
Now Malcom's place is in MD correct? Please let me know what he is doing with your heads in terms of porting/polishing/valvetrain etc..you can PM this info also if possible. The only place I've found that I'm comfortable with is in Canada so far. Any info would be a great help.
....I wish you were my neighbor Ted!!

........The stock G55 brakes are huge and work perfectly for the huge mass of the car. Trying to retrofit the SL65 brakes will probably result in less braking power. Brembo brakes will offer better looks but probably no improvement in braking performance.

.....I think a 10sec G55 is impossible. I just want to make the G55 go as fast as it can posibly go.

Just a matter of how far you wish to go, if you believe you can't, you probably won't! There is a tractor that runs low 6's @256 mph in the 1/4.

............I understand your point. That is one hell of a truck. I drive my G55 daily and am attracted to the comfort and the power. I want it to be as fast as it can possibly be but retain its daily driven form.

...............Funny you ask. I was to get it back this tuesday, but it is now going to be end of next week. I have to say, it has been a pleasant experience so far. I have received regular updates on the status of the car.

I'm trying to stay a year behind Ted on all upgrades so as I copy him, I can avoid any that blow his engine up. My G55, also black, comes back on Friday from C2 Design in Tampa with kind of a Kleemann stage 3 but Chris @ C2 is using a different brand pulley, going with a larger throttle body that is normally part of stage 4, doing full headers and high-flow cats, high-flow cooling system, new thermostat and I'm not doing the cams since they don't really help in the areas I want improvement in. Won't be like Ted's but I hope to get into the mid 12's.
