mine made 495whp and 529wtq
LET tune
with Evosport 175mm
code 3 he
cm30
k&n filters
no secondary cats
evosport phenolic spacers
according to wayne my car needed another flash and had another 15-20whp in it but my coolant started getting hot - supposedly because of air pockets. so i need to do a good bleed.
my car picked up 26whp and about 10wtq with LET tune ( i was expecting a bit more). unfortunately i do not have a baseline dyno before my other mods.
i was there when the other E55 made 522whp and 544wtq. he had...
SLR cams
ASP 180mm
Shorty Headers
Eisenmann Exhaust
Heat exchanger and pump
His baseline was 476 and Wayne brought the car up to 522 !! 46whp!!
after that i left. does anyone know what the e55 had that made 530whp?

I looked under the hood, it had a Evosport CF airbox,it had a bottle in the trunk.I think Evosport did the tune also.Wayne said he didn't want to tune it because for the money and the 8-9 pony gain it really wasn't worth it.This guy drove all the way down from CT for about 1 hour time at the shop.

Thanks for the compliment. Yes, it sucks. I was really looking forward to seeing what results would come from the work I've had done so far. Wish my belt had snapped after I had the opportunity to run my car. Well I've ordered 2 belts just to be on the safe side for now. Will have to do a dyno when I'm up and running again.

It was honestly a great day and wonderful experience! I had the pleasure of meeting both Wayne from LET Tuning and his awesome, and very skilled and socialble partners. I was truly impressed with the crew's intimate knowlege of our cars and frank honesty regarding their abilities......LET deserved every pennie, and then some.
Gary, ........your f...... car is sick.........and your are, a nut btw, ....nice, it was a pleasure meeting both you and the rest of you fanatics.
My 600 was average on the pull @ 480rwhp....guess she feeling under the weather and didn't feel much like running the way she should. Also, and unfortunately, my car needed a more fine-tuned... software driver that was not available at the time in order to tune properly. I opted to have Wayne simply adjust my speed limiter and called it a day. Wayne did however, promise to cast some of his wisdom.......and power my way in the upcoming week!
I'm really looking forward to future gatherings with my newly found bez-junkie commrades. Thanks everyone!

Let me know when the brakes go on, and we'll go for 200.
GoDav AMG: Please get in touch when you are ready for that (koff) little side project.
prodigymb: I was watching your coolant and IATs spike live during the last run (not shown on graph) - there appears to be a couple of things going on. There is just a bit of belt slip, and the charge coolant circuit is not operating correctly. That was shown during STAR/DAS actuation. I look forward to squeezing quite a few more horses out of her next trip.
e55amg00: As difficult as it was to turn away work, the replacement belt that was resourced could have potentially caused damage to your underhood area or the front of the motor had it let go under full load/RPMs.
My next car will be that MB white, BTW. Sharp car.
Thanks again, guys.
