Build the engine with lower c/r, get a custom twin GT40R or GT35R setup, stand alone engine management, built trans, reinforced axles, driveshaft and maybe even diffs, and pour some race gas in it and you're done. Its not magic, it just costs $$$

Now do all of that, leave out the race gas and use pump gas, add emissions, add "don't chop up my car", and I want it to be a daily driver, so I need reilability, and you have my request to Vadim.

Do you know if anyone supply reinforce axles or diff for this cars ???
I think it might go VRP 700 route 1st...proven set up but I think diffs and axels wont last long anyways with that power llevel if I race in 1/4...

E55 RUSS- Of course it takes time, VRUS has been working on it for a while now. Stuff like this doesnt happen overnight, except on fast and furious!
There are several places that reinforce axles and driveshafts. Driveshaftshop being one of them. You would be surprised how much a stock diff can handle.

It's not like he will be running 30 lbs of boost. Not only will it use pumped gas, but New2this will be able to drive it any time he wishes because of the way it will be built.

I am planning on picking up a 600 soon and since VRP is close to me I would love to have a chat with Vadim about the possibility of modded k24's in the future.

I understand that the K24's would be limited for the power goal this gentleman is trying to achieve. I meant for everyone else though modded k24's could provide a substantial benefit in the top end requiring no extensive fabrication and fitting perfectly in the stock location. Would be a very OEM like solution for those with more modest power goals.

Good point there
Good point there BiTurboAmg...... why is it that it seems like the Porshe Tuners have such an easier time extracting big power out of their little 6-cylinder twin turbo engines but the big Benz Engines take so much more time and money to come up with this kind of stuff?
Maybe the next generation of AMG twin-turbo engines will be able to solve alot of issues....

I've always wondered that about the K24 turbos as well. Why not just do a hybrid K24 like a K24/18 or something? Porsche guys see a 200+hp gain with all the supporting mods when they go this route (protomotive 700 package and such). I wouldn't be suprised if a K24/18 powered 65 makes 850 crank hp.

A K24/18g is EXACTLY what I was thinking. Not to mention this is not an expensive upgrade and tried and true in Porsche circles. I am just curious as to the software tuning (who would do it), this would be the only obstacle. There are several tuners out there who just need the stock k24's and they will modify them for under 2k. Talk about a cost effective upgrade, more powerful turbos for less than the price of renntech software and they fit in the stock location.
Edit: How much power are the stock 600/65 injectors rated for anyway? Does anyone know? A guy brought the stock fuel system limits up earlier and was dumped on for daring to question VRP.

Gentlemen, please read through the thread completely. I have already answered the questions with regard to why, when and how.
Here is the latest update:
After several versions, we have finally settled on this one. The room is a bit tight, but should work. I will post further pixs later this week. The plan is to have turbos plumbed by the end of this week.
Stay Tuned!

Can't wait to see if this setup will work on my SL.
Great work Vadim!

Do you think that concentrating on a few projects and getting them done would be a better idea than taking on many projects? Just a thought. Still waiting on that 55 turbo project from a long time ago.
