somethings better left unsaid ...

I'm not very much enjoying the negativity and all the pissing contests around here ... but it's bringing out quite alot of info !

nice.

out of curiousity though .. isn't adding TT to a large capacity engine more rewarding and easier done than fitting a S/C ? I'm not sure about this one here, but I guess cheaper as well ?

BTW, If I ran as horrible as you did down that 1320, I would have given up on drag racing too

So why do keep going to Willow Springs? Is there anything your good at?

I've seen Luke run at Willow, he can drive. I was confident enough in his driving skills to hand him the keys to my car only minutes after meeting him and told him to lap it like it was his own car.

One more thing, drag racing only requires about 10% (if that) of the skill road racing does. Take that from a guy that does both and does both well on a regular basis. Drag racing an AMG is probably the easiest vehicle in the world to drag race. Any moron with one hand, two feet and an eye can lay down consistant quick times in an AMG.

What about R/T's has nothing to do with HP, A 1000hp AMG can lose to a
123hp YUGO, in as far as R/T goes, the guy with the better skills will always get better R/T's. Oh, and by the way one foot is all you need

I can lay down consistant back to back to back to back 1.78-1.80 60's with my my Dymags and 19" Pirelli Corsas all day, I have timeslips to prove it. This past fall I made 5 consecutive passes in which my 60' was less than .009 of a second apart. Running 20's at a drag strip is probably your first mistake. Anyone with half a brain should be able to lay down consistant 60's and e/t's. At Famoso I laid down four or five 11.04-11.06 e/t's between 4:00 and 5:00pm. All it takes is a few practice runs to know what launch rpm breaks the tires lose and which does not. Once you find that RPM just repeat technique, it's pretty basic stuff. BTW I never use ESP, my car would never make it down the track, you want to haze the tires slightly out of the hole to keep the revs up.

BTW, if you are not using both feet you are not doing it the right way

I'm glad I found this post. I keep hearing that the E55K stock compression was 10 to 1 and the E55 NA runs 10.5 to 1 but only the latter is true. I also heard from some that the E55K stock CR was 10.5 to 1.

I guess my modded engine has the same CR as an E55K. I was hoping that mine was lower than an E55K so I can add even more boost.

I agree that a thicker head gasket is a very bad idea according to the experts I consulted with.

I've done my research and spent lots of time talking to many others WAY more informed than you about FI for the 63. You wanna make this about apples and oranges....go right ahead but I'm not gonna stoop to your level and engage you any further. Not worth my time. The fact that you would even consider lowering compression with a head gasket to add boost speaks volumes about you, your knowledge, and that ricer hooptie you drive.

I looked this up since I was considering a C55TT in 2011 but searched to see if a SC'd 63 was ever successful so I can take that route and get even more power than the 571hp 55TT due to debut this summer in the S class followed by the C-AMG in 2011.
