As for the mods, I'm going to take a stab at it (this may not be accurate, just a guess at this point):

- RENNtech's Bigger Pulley
- RENNtech's upgraded IC pumps
- RENNtech's Short-Style Headers
- RENNtech ECU Tune
- RENNtech/OS Giken LSD

more info from anybody running OS-Giken on their AMGs ?

I know a couple of people who are running them on their C63s and absolutely love them. They shine more on the road course of course but I think they still perform well at the drag strip.

sure, getting nearly 100% locking, the drag strip should be the best terrain for them.
suppose they run the 1.5 version (which is more civilized) and not the 2.0 way which is fully locked even when decelerating ..

but seems they are crunky when cold and when wriving in parking lots...

would be interesting a comparo among those, Kaaz, Carbonetic, Wavetrack and Quaife ..


btw, interesting reading here (don't know how much biased)
