only a 172??? lol you are missing out on some low end grunt.

121 is awesome in summer heat

I am going to make a mod list for stock E55s that show the gains and track times with dynos of my build.

Ill even show that my kleemanns with no cats lost low end and only made 3-5whp without retuning the car.
