Congrats on the buy that car is a beast

Welcome! I knew that the buyer of this car was going to show up on this board soon. I saw it on Ebay. That is a top mount IC, only one of two in the country if I'm not mistaken. The car is super clean with only 11k miles or something really low. Can't wait to see some numbers

It's def cool & should be a Powerhouse, but WTH? I tried timing that Acceleration Vid w/Stopwatch & it comes out 4.95-5.30 sec & the run starts from 20 mph, even when you stop the Stopwatch exactly @ 60mph??? I know it's NOT a proper method but should be close. Those 20mph-60mph times are slower than bone Stock E55's 0-60mph

Wow I like that supercharger whine. Custom intake? I can't even hear it that clear with my windows down.

The video was at part thorrtle. I will try to get better vidoes as soon as we get warmer weather. It was hard to punch it with summer tires in a 20 degree weather.

It's more like 3.7-4.0 sec on my timer. And that time is including a kick-down.
