Big Thanks To SPEEDRIVEN
Well picked up my car and all I can say is OMG!!!!!
I have to relearn how to drive this beast. Just have to 93 tune now, but will put the 101 file in next week. It was worth the wait and all the work that was done is top notch. Will get some pics up soon just running around getting ready for the Texas mile. Still have to put 200 mile and bed the brake hehe. 
Again thanks for all the hard work and there is more to come.
Here is a taste of the car on their website. Car will get a complete buff then photoshoot soon. Also the car was lowered a bit more after this picture was taken too.

Wheels seem to be ADV1 Concave wheels.
It seems OP's car is Featuring the new Custom Turbochargers From Speedriven, wich are not the same setup as the one used by Soulsearcher in His SL600.
I think OP's car Turbos retain the OEM design, but with a much improved Exhaust manifold and bigger Wheels (Kompressor and/or Turbine)
Those are my personal conclusion after seeing Speedriven'website and FB page.
Anyway, OP Will tell what is the exact nature of the Mods.

I am stuck on my thoughts for turbo upgrade, is it worth it...I'm sure it makes these things a monster, but for the price to do some other upgrades and the turbos, I could find a 65. I am curious though, does that pricing use stock exhaust mani? and does that price include installation?

Is that the stock mani coated in black and fitted with a bigger compressor Wheel
OR
A brand new casted mani a la Brabus.
Is marcin a member here ? I really like his work.

Thanks everyone it was a blast at the mile. JC a pleasure to meet you and your wife. 98aggie and shardul was nice talking with you as well. I know there were others too sorry for missing your names.
As for me my top run was 174.9 and that was with the 93 octane tune. Marcin did not want to turn it up until we can datalog the car. It will have that for the next Texas run in March, then we can turn it up. I am stoked at what the car did and I know there is more in her.
Yes I will get pics up shortly and a photo shoot is this weekend weather permitting. Also have to download the the pics and movies as well.
Once again thanks to the Speedriven crew!!!!
