Wow, looks like we got a little rivalry going on here 
The whole point in an AMG is ridiculous power in a completely drivable and luxurious package. When the car gets to the level you can't drive it anymore, it kind of becomes pointless. Havoc, if your only goal is street domination, you should go with a twin turbo Viper! 2,000hp and sub 8 second 1/4 miles

But I'm all about the V8 and I will mod it all that I can. Oh, and my car will not only be streetable, but completely drivable!

Any updates Vadim/Vrus? Price, torque, when these kits will be ready to ship?
That is the only way I will be able to make sure that the VR700 Power Upgrade for 65s delivers.

SL65 AMG
I am working on getting pricing on components and availability. Although install is fairly simple, I going to make this an in-house upgrade only with dyno before and after, and custom tuning.

Damn it Vadim now I have to get my car out to Cali? How about I just pay for your flight and room and you come here
The kit will include:
1. Intercoolers
2. Air Boxes
3. CF cover - I am working on a design
4. Larger heat exchanger with CM30 pump
5. Powerchip software.
On a stock car we should see 65-75 RWHP and 100-120 RWTQ.

I thought he said quad GT40 turbos on the SL65. Thats by no means a small turbo. I have no idea how he plans on fitting them under the hood.

Better yet, I can't wait for you to start the Turbo Installation on my 55 Kompressor. After my "VRSecret Weapon" (Havoc Stage 2) my 55 should be at 850-900 Horses. Adding Turbos after that should give me well over 1,000… “VR1200?”
I think some of you guys need to reread Vadim's original post on this thread, just under the picture. VRP knows where the Real AMG Power is and they're saving the Best for Last!

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that, was so excited about the current stuff. Damn! quad gt40s, this thing will be able to spin the earth backwards. There will be a bit of lag, though, no? Worth it though for the insane power.

SL65 VRP1000 and 20" Monolites
Ask Vadim
But, I don't think my 65 is going to be a Quad GT40 setup.
I'm pretty sure that we are keeping the stock turbos, and adding the twin GT40s in the back by the rear tires.
Lots of plumbing, and pressure losses to deal with, but, that way we can add the monster GT40s without cutting up the car too badly.
But hey, what do I know??
Definately a fun project.

What do you mean? If you want to be right behind me in line, then you should join me right now, because after it all happens, I'll be well pasted the finish line! You will need the 5.7 bottom and Victor just ask for a small deposit. Don't worry, by the time your 5.7 Kompressor is ready for TTs, my 5.7 Kompressor TT will have been perfected. Game?

BTW- If I do get it done my car would still be faster because it will be in a W208 body which is about 1000lbs lighter than your car

Your worst nightmare...
I dont like to spend money on things that arent proven. I dont have pockets down to my knees like you. I have considered sending my car to several shops who promised twin GT35R setups running 600whp on pump gas with a stock block but couldnt pull the trigger since it wasnt proven.

As Paul Walker said in the sequal..."pockets ain't empty cuz."
Havoc and everyone, I really respect your decision to push the SL's to the limits. If you have the money and the desire...then why not! Modding is one of the best parts of car ownership anyway. And it seems like you will be very, very busy with getting these things up and running. Looking foward to see all the steps taken and of course, the finished project.

Your car will determine how I decide to move forward with mine so thanks for paving the way. I am still waiting to see some positive results for the VRP cams
