FYI

The link within to the product guide actually takes you to the block tuner instructions instead.

Sorry, at the moment those are the deals - I think they're pretty strong. Maybe next month.

We've done something like this in-house before, but it's not at the form of a "kit" quite yet. If someone wants to send the car here, we can do it - until we have a proper "bolt-in" that is 100% sorted though, we won't be sending these out as "kits".

Did you ever sort out the TCU bugs so that it can be applied to all 55's and not just the heavily modified ones?

This is really 2 questions and Marcin's not here today to answer that, so I'll do the best I can.

1. we sorted the bugs for the tuned cars, and from what people tell me, it rocks.

2. I'm not sure you'd notice any gains on the stock cars - I think if you don't have a pulley and a tune on it, you're probably not going to notice very much in the way of gains, so (as we do with the V12 cars) I'd probably advise you to hold off.

No one has decided to try this?!!!

Top mouned intercoolers change a 600/65 into a monstrous beast...just think what they can add to a moded 55k!

I told myself that the ONLY other engine mod I would do were top mount intercoolers (IF at all). Car has enough "thrust" for me and I'm content with the times my car runs. I'm sure the top mounts would be a nice lil addition though. Right when I thought I was beginning to come to an end on modding the 211...


Hey Speedriven guys...how much are we lookin at for a set of the top mounts installed on the 211?
