Thanks to Bruce@TTM and Jeremy...........

I just want to thank Bruce of course for all the work and guidance on the transformation of my SL. Not only is he good at what he does but he is a great guy for those who don't know him personally. Also to Jeremy for the tune/file he was able to provide. I was able to get my car Dyno'd on Monday and even though a Dyno is just a Dyno it's nice to see the gains you receive when you do all the work to your car. I'm glad you both were able to fit me into the two days set aside for this.

I'm now working on getting the cooling mod completed so we can complete one more flash for maximum gains and relief to the heat these engines produce.

My Evosport lower rear contol arms were shipped yesterday also so hopefully it will reduce the amount of rear toe out on heavy acceleration which gives the SL that side to side chattering feel. I'll let you know how it feels when she's all done!!

Nice meeting all the guys that were there for their own Dyno's, including Jeremy and Jay. (Nice BMW Jay)

Thanks again Bruce!

Toe Links

The toe links are a win-win.........the chatter is gone, the rear is planted much more than before. I am very happy with the mod. Had the alignment done at MB and they loved how easy it was to set the toe in the back.
