Havoc made a few changes to his "wish list"... He's getting a few more items added to the build..

The one I will comment on is: He wants to be the first to have the 5.7L so it will go into his car and we will develop the custom tune using Vadim & Jeremy's talents.. He will get the full Stage 3 heads and by the time the tuning is complete we will have a true package available.. We are hoping to be in the 750hp range..

There is 1 other item that I have been working on for a long time now, and it was the project that I alluded to a few months ago when I asked if there was someone in Colorado that could help me with something... I don't want to say anything right now.. As soon as I get the first prototype pics in my hands, I will post the info and let you all in on it.

Havoc's right though.. It's gonne be... BIG..

E55 RUSS

Its very nice to have someone like Havoc on board

Havoc

Thanks E55 RUSS!!
It's Cool To Have You Here As Well!

I'm Very Excited To Have The VR700 Kit and The VRP 5.7 Engine Build Merge Together As One To Create The "VRP 5.7 VR750 Production"!
I'm Here For All The 55 Guys And Will Keep Victor's Original Dream Alive!
...while he moves on to his V12QT VR1000......Trader!...

Hmm..... different supercharger?

Havoc

All I Can Say is that the Other Item will Complete the "Havoc Stage 2".
Sorry, but we're Not Talking!

jangy

HAHA!! I know I know!!! I saw it the other day and just couldn't help but to peek under that hood !!!

Havoc

Man it sucks that I'm not there!
What did you see? Like nothing there!

jangy

EXACTLY!!! I saw the SC wraped up all snug in a bag in the shop, so I started snooping around for another 55k. I found yours just outside. Nice looking ride! I'm realling feeling the SL lately.

Havoc

Thanks! Yeah, I love my SL55! I'll never sell it and now you know why.
Man this is some cool info. So all I have is the SC in a bag. How many horses can I get from that? Man, what have I done! LOL You snooping around the shop is great, just like I would. Ha! Ha! Keep me posted man. Thanks!

jangy

Dude, I love that place. i go straight to the garage and hang out with George and whoever else is in there. The cars are simply amazing everytime!! There was a black on black 997TT from GMG over there that was just BUTTER!!!!

Actually, I say the SC inside the garage. I recognized that it was a 55k so i went to find the car it came from!! HAHA!!!! There she was, sitting outside. iwould have taken lots of pics and posted if I had known you weren't around. Never fear, those guys are EXTRA picky. Yeah, between yours and the SL65 with those pretty ICs, it is wild in there with real tuning. My stuff is stricktly bolt on, but yours will be a monster!!

Havoc

Wow!! Thanks Jangy!! Hearing this info is so cool! I could only imagine what it looks like in there, not to mention hanging out and snooping around. Man I would be there everyday! Dude, you are so lucky! Take some pics next time and let me know what you see.
We have to met there one day when I return. I'll take you for a ride!

Havoc

Hey guys, Victor will be posting some more info on the VRP 5.7L Engine Build shortly. You can follow the 5.7L Build on the attached thread:

https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/227122-vrp-5-7l-engine-build.html

Also, once the 5.7L is completed, it will be shipped to Vadim in CA and he will post the install and final completion of the VRP 5.7L VR750.

Stay Tuned!

jangy

I'll be back up next week to pick up the ride, so I'll take the camcorder and try to take a little tour of the garage and cars.

The place is so fun. It is almost an hour and a half from my house and I JUST started working again, or I'd be there all day everyday. Very cool and open environment. They have nothing to hide and have fun at what they do. Vadim runs like a chicken on a mission, but George is down there just wrenching away. I love it. It is sooo cool to see the insides of these AMGs and to see how truly tuning friendly they are. Fit and Finish on MBs FTW.

jangy

WoooooHoooo!!!!! I'd love a ride in that thing. Is there a HP target you are after, or are you just doing the mods and see what it is?

Havoc

I'm currently doing Two Specific Mods, but after all is said and done; I would like to have over 1,000 hp since my SL is so freakin heavy. The first mod I had in mind were the Stage 3 Heads. When you supply some serious boost to them, this is where you can make some serious power. I wanted the stage 3 heads before I even heard of VRP. But no tuner would touch them. It was a great day when I found Victor!
The second mod I needed was a Stronger Bottom. I plan on adding some serious boost later and I also drive a 4,000 mile road trip once a year. I don't really trust my stock bottom to last with having 700+ hp. The VRP 5.7L Engine Build is not only stronger with an improved oiling system, but it's lighter and has an 0.2L bore increase which will help free up a few more horses.
As far as the other mods like CF air box, 80mm throttle body, long tube headers, etc., they all are a must have in order for my specific mods to reach full potential.

Yacht Master

Very nice Havoc,
On your annual 4000 mile trip, where do you go?
That 5.7 is going to be hot!

Havoc

Thanks Yacht Master!
My road trip is from Los Angeles to Southern Louisiana where I'm originally from. I take my time to enjoy the scenery and with 2 stops to rest for eight hours a night, it takes me 2 1/2 days to get there. If I drive faster and stop only once for an eight hour nap, I can make the 2,000 mile one way trip in 2 days. I love road trips, especially when driving an SL55 AMG! This time will be very special since my beast will be transformed into a VRP 5.7 VR750 monster.

rotex

Can't wait see how your beast turns out Quick question? With the porting etc. could you run an even bigger pulley for increased boost? If not, what's the limiting factor?

Yacht Master

Southern Louisiana, Sportsman's Paradise, The only thing better than the blue water fishing off South Pass is the food. I hope you and yours have recovered from Katrina. Sounds like a great road trip, in a one of a kind SL 5.7. BTW I know the secret it's a VRP lagniappe.
