the chips along add almost 30-35HP, Exhaust would do wonders as well. V12 tuning is unlike anything most modders have seen. You can easily add 50HP/tq to a V12 with minimal modding. You could turn a S600 into quite a beast.

I went back to the dealership last week after being out of town and it had sold just a day or two before I got back into town. So I guess this one wasnt meant to be. I was just too busy to take any action on the car immediatly so there was nothing I could really do.
I decided to spend the money I would have spent on the SEL600 on some Techart 22" wheels and some Pirelli tires for the Cayenne... So everybody is happy in the end.

50 hp/tq with minimal modding? What types of modifications are you talking about? Chip and Exhaust?
