SL55 flatens out...
Hello,
I have not dynoed the car so I am just going by how it feels. SL55 with cam, 180pulley, long tube headers, full 3"exhaust, high flow cats, heat exchanger, intake manifold spacers flatens out above 5k rpm. I just don't think what might be. I am thinking car need 200miles or so for it to used to hardware and software change.
anyone experiened this after big mods?

No, my car ran like a banshee after similar mods.
You don't mention ECU tune in your list; are you still running the stock tune?

That makes sense. A lot of 55K modders were bumping into that same problem 2-3 years ago. You'll want an ECU tune that increases or eliminates the torque limiter.
