Think again before you modify your E55 and give it even more torque... :p

DUDE! You need a bigger dog!


How about Newfoundlander or a German Sheppard.

TOO MUCH TQ is never enough!

How do you think we keep our front seats spotless?

We could always use some more torque. Its what our 55K engines are famous for. Im thinking of getting the CLS modded by Kleeman or Evosport. Leaning towards Kleeman though.

I know, they work for smaller entities.

When you are 6'3'', 275 lbs, 40'' waist and XXXL shoulders they only offer ....................................... parachutes.

Oh, well.................

That's not a W211 back seat. Since the dog managed to hold on, it appearently not have enough torque just yet. :v

My dog eats Newfoundlanders, rips the legs of German Shepherds and hits them on the head with the soggy end! He is a 200lbs Great Dane and this is his ride

Give him some polished up wheels are low profile tires.
Then you can swap out his collar for a shiny bling bling one with a tag saying... "the real snoop dog"

Rafal,

Come on.. You can't be serious? Too much torque????

If you can't spin the tires on the highway at 160mph then there is room for MORE TORQUE!!

In all seriousness... You are right though.. My car makes just shy of 500lb/ft from 2,500 - 4,500 RPM.. If I could keep that curve nice and flat all the way to redline I would say that is enough torque.. My car spins its tires effortlessly.. Any more than that and I think it would be futile trying to launch this car on the street without DR on there all the time.

I would like to keep the torque where it is and just bump the HP up another 100hp or so.
