Weistec offers a transmission upgrade kit good for 1000 lb ft (~1350 N m)

http://www.weistec.com/7229built.html

I have no experience with this kit so I can't speak to it personally. It appears that you need to send in your original transmission and they rebuild it to their specifications.

Either get a turbo and put in a 1000nm artificial torque limiter ECU tune and up HP to more, or upgrade transmission. The custom tune route is easier and cheaper. Also the torque plateau will be wider & longer, so even though your limit is still 1000nm, it will stay at that torque level for a lot longer

Of course you can limit to 1000nm, he's obviously not an advanced ECU tuner. Contact Jerry @ eurocharged, they can do a custom tune for you from anywhere in the world, all you have to do is just change the number of the stock torque limiter pretty much. It's very simple

I can't wait til my ML is broken in... reading about other modded W166's and watching videos is like torture when I can't do anything... I am dead set on waiting til I hit the 1,000 mile mark before modding.
