Can you list a side by side comparison of what mods each car has.

That E55 is pretty damn fast.

This Attila guy is changing the E55 cyber world Jezz I´m sure every owner will start to look in different way to is own E55 after seeing this videos...One word, RESPECT ...

But I don´t believe that this turbo has 600HP, because if it had, it would smoke the E55.
A 600Hp Turbo is making round about 11,5 sec to 200Kph. Stock E55 makes 14,1 sec. So in order to a E55 run like that from a 600HP Turbo, it would have to run a 11,0 sec to 200Kph which is almost Carrera GT territory

Anyway, Atilla is making new rules for the German autoban high end cruisers

Rolling starts I used to smoke 996 TT 510-520 HP in my E55 with just headers around 530-535 HP...4wd takes a lot of power away at higher sppeds but great from a dig on regular road...

Some I beleive 620 HP will run at least side but side against 600 996 TT...

I have documented experience with a 996 TT (628 HP at the wheels).

1/4 mile in 11.03 @ 135 MPH.

As a note, his car does 60-130 MPH in about 6.4 Seconds with only 1-shift...

Ran it at a track (great guy) and a drive with him and some other cars (Supercharged 10.85 Second Viper, 911 GT2, C6 Z06, and a Stage IV 911 TT that has about 550HP @ the Wheels).

As a note a 911 GT2 with a Speed Gallery 650 Package and some other goodies will run in the mid-10's...

I am embarrased to say but I had no idea what a stock GT2 could do not to mention a modified one! Awesome cars.

So, to answer everyones question it is no match for a stock E55 (12.16 1/4) to run with the GT2, 628 HP, TT and Viper.

However, the E gives the Z06 and Stage IV 911 all they can handle from lower speeds up to 90-95 MPH. After 90-95 MPH both cars pull hard on the E.

And he is an idiot for not wearing a seatbelt, and passing cars on the wrong side.

200mph for about 23 seconds.. damn. at night.. hot damn.

Anyone who was scared about the engine out of warranty, this one is getting close to 70k miles and sounds like its just broke in.

I didn't notice any heat soak either..

Is the original poster the guy in the video?? If so I got a few questions for ya.

Oh no Mr. Perfect just called out Atilla...

Anyone got time to go to M boards or You Tube and call out all the Bimmer weenies doing the same exact thing?

Didn't think so, I don't either.

Ugghhh...

Isn't it time for another auto-fellating session on your own boards?
