SL600 RT beats on a '05 911 Turbo S

Getting on to an on ramp today in the SL. There's a guy next to me in a black 996 turbo S with black wheels, eyeing my RennTech badges. The light changes, he hits it I hit it, about 15 seconds later, I'm 10 car lengths ahead. That's it, sorry for the short, boring story, just figured I'd share.

444bhp from 414bhp on non-S
457lb/ft from 413lb/ft on non-S
350mm ceramic brakes from 330mm steel brakes on non-S

They reworked the 3.6l engine significantly to get these gains, it isn't just a boost bar job. As a result the spread of tq is more even giving immediate in-gear push.
official 0-62 is 4.2 and top speed 191mph but they test quicker.
However, no match in a straightline for a Renntech SL600 ramped up to 675hp.

Hey Renntech, you know ole Lou Fishgold better than any of us. Any other mods planned for the world's fastest street Benz?

Still can't believe he pulled 10.8.

Incredible.

They used larger compressors and turbines and enhanced the intercoolers. They also empolyed advanced cross-flow water cooling (developed for F1) which allocates a seperate circuit for each cylinder and head to help with engine cooling. Tq is an almost flat max line from 3000-5000rpm on the S/X50 variant of the engine.
