Not really, it was bone stock going up against some heavy hitters. Will be interesting to see the new videos once he's got the mods done. That should give a good indication of how well the 55 responds to the upgrades.

The E55 clearly has bad IC pump. The CTS-V is a faster car but not as show in this video. You should check the IC pump before making more runs......

Its actually my E55 in the video . That particular Cts-v made 550 to the wheels . And the Zo6 is heavily modded . The vette runs mid 11s @ 123mph . My biggest issue was from a dead ic pump. After changing the pump and adding a supercharger pulley the both pull me by roughly 2 cars and from a dig its door to door till 110mph . With a tune and a lower underdrive pulley it should get intesting . Both these guys I ran are good friends of mine and its all in fun .
