What mods does this E55 have?

Check out this video. Looks like this guys E55 is spinning wheels from a rolling start. He claims to be putting out 620hp. What type of mods do you guys think he has? I was considering putting the Kleemann K1 kit on my car. Will it make my E55 spin wheels from a rolling start...

620hp is the amount of output claimed by MKB (see the title of the video) and the person probably has that kit.

your wheels will spin from a rolling start if you turn off the esp and are going slow enough for the car to kickdown into first. It may also spin in second (esp off) depending on the road surface. I don't think a K1 kit will give you enough extra juice to make a big difference, for that you'll need a k2.

Easy..... easy......

Look: (from mkb-power.de)
MKB 113 35
Increase in performance to 456 KW (620HP) at 5800 rpm, 800 Nm at 4190 rpm
modification:
high performance camshafts, exhaust headers s/s, kompressor pulley, bigger throttle body with optimized air intake duct, adaptation of ECU incl. Vmax delimiter, Limited slip differential 45%, shorter transmission ratio (I = 2.82), modified transmission, control unit for EGS

That graph they have is a load of crap. They say the max torque 800Nm occurs at 4190rpm... but the torque starts to drop off after 4000rpm...

Thanks. Does this MKB Kit make the E55 run quicker than the Kleeman K2.

Looks very similar to the Kleemann K3?

So does any have any idea of what this car has done exactly to make it sound and perform like that. I just want the sound!

BUT I'm kind of weary if that's real because you can still hear as though he is still on the throttle towards the end of the video but yet you see him applying the brakes...?

The car belongs to Salman Al Qubaisy in the United Arab Emirates,

I know him very well and this car i fully modified by MKB germany it was one of those model cars in the showroom of MKB germany, even the interior is different, i might see him soon and get details about what exactly was modified in that e55. unfortunatly he crashed it at 260KPH (162.5 mph) he was in the hospital for some time. he is fine now and got himself a silver e55 and installed the MKB engine that he had. i saw him race with an SLR. first 100meters they where side by side, then the e55 slowly got ahead at 300 KPH (187.5MPH) the SLR was about 300 feet behind.
