After being sent to Stuttgart, Germany with the U.S military I fell in love with German culture. Played a lot of fussball with the Germans and drank beer. When I visited the Mercedes Benz Museum I fell in love with Mercedes Benz. Truly remarkable if anyone gets a chance to visit the museum. I've always wanted a Benz. But already having a fully built Evolution I could not convince myself of a daily C63 so I opted for a W212, Mercedes backbone.
As a side hobby I began doing drag racing videos and that has taken off in a crazy way. I've had the privilege to shoot for events and companies like Microtech EMS from Australia, FuelTech from Brazil, and private teams and events, mainly Imports in U.S and Latin America. I hope to do something with the Benz once I add some pieces. You guys are welcome to visit my channels.
Thanks for your service man, saw your other thread and that's a beautiful E350! That evo is crazy though. Even though I've never been as much of a fan of the tuner scene, a properly built engine with that fab work is a thing of beauty. How much are you putting down to the wheels?
Anyway, I'd love to see some Benz media come up on your Vimeo, keep us posted.

Because of the video work I've been able to build relationships that has helped me build the Evo. In some instances I have exchanged work for work. Is a very unique build, not a truly drag racing set up nor road course either. Is in between and street legal.
Built 2.0 with Carrillo 1000hp rods, wiseco pistons, Ferrera valves, GSC cams, 6466mm Precision turbo, 2100cc injectors, FuelTech FT500 EMS, plus all the supporting pieces such as studs, springs, double pumps etc. Runs on E85 with Methanol Injection and we have dynoed it at 38psi 780whp. In the streets we have raised to 47psi and have spiked to 52psi. The car in the street runs in the 800s whp but I keep the psi in the 38psi range. The FuelTech computer is touch screen interface that allows for map selection so I can also choose my 93 pump map if I need to switch fuels but I avoid it. It is the 1st Evo in the US with FuelTech, many cars in NHRA are running it, including JEGS corvette last years ProMod champion. I'm good friends with the ownership after a few years of media coverage.
As far as shooting the E350 I'm waiting to install the suspension drop, doing 19" wheels with some aggressive tires. Maybe a grill upgrade, just tasteful stuff.
Definitely, please post pictures when you do on the E350. That's a badass build though, 52psi is insane I can't fathom what that even feels like when you spool up.
