Long Tube Headers.....what to look for?
#126
Really, what have you created/fabricated? As in you, not someone else making said part(s) for you?
I didn't say we set it yet, more proof your RC skills suck harder than Jenna mid scene, just that it's going to be broken very soon.
btw, you didn't say in you pm who's car and what mhp parts you set the non-nos 55k 1/4mile record with?

Hooley,
DA is much less of a factor in FI apps, and 11.3 is a long way from 10.99. Regardless mikey has not fabricated parts, tested, refabbed, etc. He's got an older car with which he can simply follow the footsteps (buy this and that) of others to low 11s.
There's no doubt in my mind that 55Ks can run 10s w/out spray, but it doesn't take all the mods mikey has to do it either.

That is true forgot about FI factor. Mikey does have some custom one off stuff in his car though.

I'm not going to comment on that one way or another but again I just don't see how they'll stay in business without the ability to do encrypted tuning. This is not like the OBDII scare we had in the domestic world back in the 90s, it's the real deal.

oh, you're "going" to break it. please don't talk to me about what you're "going" to do at famoso or what your "going" to do in march. i'm sure if the 55k car that you've never ever seen is breaking records at famoso, it will have nothing to do with all the other extensive mods it has and everything to do with your tune...right?

Tuning > all other mods combined in these cars. Regardless, we have ETs/Traps of the previous combo (the only difference being the tuning) so we'll know exactly what our contribution is.

Like I said before, you don't need ported heads, cams, or headers to run 10s in a 55K. I'll be proving that one step at a time this spring.

Again, I posess more euro/japanese/domestic tuning knowledge at this moment in time than you ever will, as you've never tuned anything whatsoever. You're skating uphill and doing a poor job of it. Can you even weld? MIG or TIG? Do you own a business that employs others in this field (fabrication)? Or was your statement just a blatant bull**** lie like the rest of the content of your posts?

I've tuned more cars, built more motors, set up more rear diffs, welded more exhausts, etc to date than you ever have or will.
Why are we even debating this fact? You've readily admitted the extent of your knowledge and experience and it doesn't take a genius to see that it doesn't compare.
Just let it go. The idea of a full inconel exhaust on a E55 is just retarded. It's not a chocolate/vanilla thing, and if you had the experience you'd understand that.

i agree about inconel exhaust on an e55 being retarded, and a full ti exhaust on an e55 is just as retarded...so what's your point!!! YOU made this into what it is, i just get a laugh out of your bs and spin.
as i've told you everytime you do this. i'm always willing to let it go whenever you're ready.

Mikey, you can sit there and try to rip me, try to rip on Andy, but at the end of the day you are just a pathetic loser that can't back up any of your claims. You are grasping at straws with your weak attemps to dis-credit Andy and trying to belittle me. The fact that your are not even going to make Famosa makes it twice as comical. I wish Andy would not get so worked up over your weak, meaningless and off base comments. I can see right through you trash talking, you are obviously an OFF (over financed f***) without a pot to **** in. Too bad you are not going to make Famosa, I would have loved showing what an MHP tune can do first hand but I guess you are just going to have to sit at your computer and live it through everyone elses eyes. Another internet tough guy that balks when it comes time to put up or shut up......just pathetic.

I can't imagine my car lowered with my long tubes. Maybe I got an early design or something but those collectors are looooowwwwww!! Gotta use valet button many times now on driveway entrances with steep gutters (common up here)....and that is just with the stock height. Lowered it would be bangin on everything!!
I got the VRPs BTW.

I'm certain a set of equal length long tube headers with stepped primaries, 4-1 design with a nice fat merge collector will make great power. I'm thinking you can get within 8-10whp by just removing the primary cats with stock headers. And it wont cost much at all from any decent muffler shop. leave the secondaries in place for noise reduction, remove the resonator and gut the stock mufflers. I have been thinking about doing this myself one day with a pulley and tune. It should run strong. Just my 2 cents.

The problem with you stating that you're "always willing to let it go" is that you're always instigating as well. The two don't go hand in hand.

Lots of yappin and no data. What ever happened to all the cars getting these tunes and where are the dyno sheets? I am the one that has always wanted to simply see proof, instead of just predicting what every mod does. Maybe famosa will clear some things up and maybe not. All this chatter is just smoke and mirrors, FLAT OUT. Notice that these heated discussions just become a repeat of two simple themes.
1 - The non-believer is broke and jealous.
2 - The non-believer is not a tuner.
Circles circles circles. No discussion of FACTS. The closest is more prediction of what WILL happen but NOTHING on what is being done. Like it or not, the data is clearly there for ALL tuners. Every single one of them. Not in their own words and not with rude banter. It is simply there from the clients. Why do we not see data from MHP cars? Also, were the mechanical failures that were NEVER elaborated on by what used to be trusted members just a coincidence?![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
Thanks for the help everyone. Funny thing is that Andy got upset over mickey's post when it was actually a valid point because we had JUST had a private discussion about who can do it and for how much. That is why he posted that reminder to me.
Last thing, Mickey is the biggest supporter of Benzgal on this site and one of only a few members that even believe in the car. Saying he isn't coming to avoid her is ignorant in itself. I'm curious to see what RennTech was able to do to that 2005 (
) as well. One thing that will be nice to see is all the E55k cars. Jim has never seen so many fast AMGs and will be in for one crappy day, since he takes a good woopin so poorly. At best, he may beat Juicee.....
