DTM - E55 Power differences...

DTM Cab has 582 hp and 800nm torque, and only diff I note is that it has a 10.5:1 compression ratio compared to the E55 unit which has 9:1.

What else am I missing, besides some clever mapping etc ...

probably headers, camshaft, exhaust, pulley. Like the SLR engine, basis 55K engine, and then tuned by AMG to provide decent power.
