SPEEDRIVEN, Is this add confused w/JC's SL? or actually NEW results on Outkasts rig?
2007 SL600 Mercedes-Benz roadster, which – after nearly a year of research and development work by Chicago-based tuning firm Speedriven – now develops over 800 horsepower and over one-thousand pound-feet of torque from its biturbo V12. Good enough for 10-second quarter mile runs and a top speed well in excess of 200mph
As I believe both SL's in Q are pre 07'
& only JC-Soulsearchers SL600 has made close to 800 HP etc.. Please elaborate guys
What happened to Dyno graphs w/NEW larger Turbo wheels etc???Thank you..

Hi - not sure if this has been addressed, but the car not being an 07 is my fault. I wrote it up and nobody caught the typo.
As for 800, that's 800 crank, not whp. at 20% loss, that's 640 whp - which is not far from what these cars were making on race BEFORE the upgrade turbos.

there anyone that can verify if the fuel system is compatible with e85 or do you have to change all seals/lines first?

Even changing all the seals/lines and building a stainless fuel rail (plus bigger injectors, probably a bigger pump, etc.) would be wroth doing, I think, to be able to run 30+ pounds of boost.

You think ECU would let you run 30 pounds of Boost? If I recall correctly I used to see spikes of 29 PSI on the 65, I think marcin said it used to go into Limp mode in our 65 cars if it saw anything 29+ psi. Did they fix this issue? that would be nice.
