OK, I'll bite...
Dyno sheet please?
And at least for me, this brings up a good point, what's with all the engine numbers as opposed to rear-wheel numbers numbers being posted here on the forum? I don't get it, and it doesn't make sense, at least to me, to work backwards from the rear wheel numbers that people get, throw in some correction factor for driveline loss, and then say their motor is making XXX HP. On all the other car forums that I frequent, rear wheel (corrected) is the standard, the only way I know of to get the motor's numbers directly (and more importantly, accurately) from the crank, is to pull the motor and dyno it on an engine dyno (which is how the manufacturers rate them)...

I agree.
A lot of the tuners use to do that a lot more on this forum, some have seen the light and only post dyno sheets.

Nice wide body. The hood is pretty ummm.....ugly
I wonder what the mods are. And I agree with everyone, I need to see dynos to believe the claimed HP at the crank. I just want to see power at the wheels.

Amg really need to make a scoop type hood, or something blend will with the Benz body. B/c we really need some cooling on Hwy driving. Not feeling the Hood on this E55.

Info on the car...
Here is the link:
http://cars.auto.ru/cars/used/sale/628148.html
As far as mods go, the description is vague:
- Custom Sport Exhaust
- Throttle Bodies
- Custom ECU
- Pulley
- Further increase of the boost
- Fully Upgraded Intercooler system
- Custom Differential (?!)
- Upgraded gearbox
- No speed limit - states that it can top 362 km/h
Cosmetics:
- Widebody (obviously)
- 275/30 tires in front, 305/30 tires in the back on 20" rims
- Custom interior.
Thats about it... yours for 139,000 Euro, or 198,000 USD
I really like this one though Carlsson E55 (680 hp)
