RADO Twin Turbo SLS Built By World Motorsports

The RADO SLS Twin Turbo built by World Motorsports has been out on the roads of Los Angeles for the last few months tearing it up. We have been on a couple of canyons runs, been doing a lot of city driving, drag strip testing and quite a few runs on the dyne. We have made some great endurance high speed runs on some highways in Mexico too.

We are about to start on our head development package that is going to start with modified camshafts with all stock valve train and then we will be doing a complete valve train retrofit.


This car is very docile on the street and easy to drive-


Our low boost kit at 3.8lbs. of boost is already the highest horsepower SLS on the Dyno (we call this our SLS850TT)-


Car at Irwindale Drag Strip for Test & Tune-


We will have camshaft and complete valvetrain upgrades available in 2014 along with internal transmission upgrades and clutch options. We will continue to do some serious R&D with our car so that we can offer upgrades to help everyone take their SLS's to the next level. We make 850 horsepower at less than 4 lbs. of boost and we have had our car pushing over 10 lbs. of boost already. The M156/159 engine has really proven to be quite an adequate platform to take to the next few levels.

With a few easy to install upgrades that we will have available for sale in 2014 reaching high horsepower levels will be easier for anyone with an SLS, no matter what type of power adders you decide to use.

We were going to NFZ on Saturday but we ended up taking delivery of 2 new cars on Saturday so we had to be around for that.

boost kit at 3.8lbs. of boost is already the highest horsepower SLS on the Dyno (we call this our SLS850TT)-
Very impressive!
I have been looking for a turbo kit for my car.
If this will be available for the CLS63, send me some info.
Thanks

E63, SL 550 Sport,C63 Coupe On the Way!!
No dyno sheets and no timeslips from the drag, yet you want us to believe you are making 850hp. Good luck with that.

Rumor has it that you were dead even with a white Tune/Header SLS in LA :-)

Good luck with that 850hp claim

Not only am I saying that we made 850 horsepower, I AM SAYING that we make 850 horsepower at less than 4lbs. of boost on a engine where we have already safely run more than twice that.

You can believe anything you want, I don't care. You obviously believe some story about a white SLS that has headers that is just as fast, that's what sounds unbelievable. I would love to hear from the person that raced with us or compared cars with us. The only thing I would be asking them is why they're car is not in our shop getting some modifications?

You are more than welcome to believe what you want but I would seriously love to hear from the guy with the white SLS. Whoever the person is they are more than welcome to come down to our shop as I would love to show you around and give you a ride if you want. Our doors are open to all Mercedes owners, please stop in anytime you want, you will always be welcome.
