Some Pics of My E55

Here are a few pics that I took a few months ago. Sice then I have purchased the Renntech Pully and am waiting to send my ecu down to florida for the renntech flash. Sorry for my lack of photography skills.

VERY NICE!

how does the Evo compare to the 55? I have had the pleasure of driving a 305AWHP Evo 8 MR but not a 55.

Thanks. The evo is a fully built street rocket that is run every day on race gas and 30 psi of boost. She also has a fully setup racing suspension for handling and cornering. In raw performance there is no comparrison. But the more important issue(atleast to me) is the comfort, respect, and performance combination that the E55 gives me! Absolutly the best performance sedan or car that I have owned. Perfect balance of class with that musclecar torque when needed. I have driven my E to NYC and back to Michigan without having the usual sore *** that a ride like that gives you when driven non-stop. The best times for the Evo were: 10.98 @ 129.11 at Norwalk Raceway in Ohio last year. And for the E55: 12.27 @115.87 the same day. I cannot wait to see how the E does after the Renntech mods. Plus I am in the process of selling my evo to get a 996 or 997 Porche Turbo.

that is a very high trap speed for an evo, they are usually fast but dont trap as fast as they should b/c the 4wd traction makes them look (time wise) faster than they really are.

my friend had an evo with 500+hp, that thing was hilarious, it would pin your head to the headrest through the top of 3rd.

get a 996 if your going to mod, they are much more mod friendly

Thanks, yeah because you can cut a 1.60 60ft, the times are good but the MPH is weak. You can see with my dyno post the car makes great power all the way to 9000rpms. I have raced a new Z06 from a 45 roll to 130mph and I win by almost 2 cars, only when I have to shift into 5th is when the Z reels me in and passes me. Yeah, I am leaning toward a 996 for sure cause those Porsches need alot more power than they are offered with stock.
