Where are the sound clips????

Forgive me for sounding rude but you guys at Fluid Motor Union promised sound clips so where are they. At least update the post and say you are still working on it if indeed you are? Not a great way to introduce yourselves to the board IMO.

Hang in there guys! I couldn't get it done before the weekend so I am out of town. I heard it on speakers though and the quality is perfect. I am on it as soon as I can get back to it!

We also custom tuned the car so the dyno graphs will be posted as soon as a customers car is off of the dyno.

Did you have the opportunity to dyno the car before and after the exhaust? If so, did you see any gains and could you post the graphs? I would also like to know how much it would cost to do the exhaust on an 06 CL65.

Here is a small video guys! Never got the chance to take a rolling video of it under load which is when it really sounded amazing but hopefully this helps everyone get an idea!

OMG! That is epic in sound! Sounds so mean, violent and yet so crisp, I'm sure this will definitely get some WTF looks once people see hear this sound from an S Class. I hope you can get a video with it under load. Simply amazing.

We did dyno before and after but the after was with the tune. This car was next to impossible to dyno because it kept spinning the wheels so there really wasn't an accurate dyno graph. PM if you want more details and I will help out the best I can!

I saw this on my phone last night and I had the aux input on in the car and heard this car full volume....... very nasty.

Does it seem like the throttle response was better? From the looks of it the revs went high very quickly.

Love how you can clearly hear the turbos spooling! Bravo for a job well done!

Thanks and glad you liked the sound! I wish I could have caught video of this thing under load. We were delivering the car to the customer and when I was following next to him the sound it made was absolutely amazing. There are a few interested customers with S65's in the area so if we end up booking them in I will definitely work on better footage!

It was extremely hard to get an accurate graph but the smoothest one was around 485-490 to the wheels and torque was coming down at over 800-850. Keep in mind these numbers on our dyno dynamics digital dyno which generally is the "heart breaker"

Wow! Torque galore, was that on pump gas or race? I expected rwhp to be down vs. a dynojet but geez that torque is insane for the dyno dynamics, I wonder what it will strap on the dynojet.

My understanding is dyno dynamics reads 18-20% lower than dyno jet...that brings you roughly to 580rwhp...that is very good. Torque readings seems very high. Even if we take the 800 at 18% increase ...we are looking at 944 rwtq....that could be, who knows...Definitely very strong numbers.

It's the torque reading on a dyno dynamics that so shocking, the rwhp seems to be fine after you taken into it's reading difference of 18-20% in comparison to the dynojet. I'm guessing the car dynoed on 100 octane, I hope Fluid Motor Union drops back in with a reply. The exhaust note is plain nuts and by far the best S65 AMG I've ever heard.

The torque really was incredible guys, absolute monster of a car. The car was dyno'd with what ever the owner dropped it off with in the tank. I believe he said he runs just 93 octane, not sure on the specifics of what company or anything.

This guy really just said he wanted more noise behind his car, not too into performance or anything so we gave him the option of a full custom exhaust with a tune for an extremely low price. We really only plan on doing a few more of these at such a low cost to really show people the quality of work you will get from our company.

If anyone else is interested in complete custom systems like this let me know and we can get you in here for an estimate!

Thanks again for all of the kind words guys we greatly appreciate it!
