You should see them in person brotha, they are certified and suite the W211 body lines to a T. Super clean and elegant.

Thanks lowpro, just dreaming and visualizing on how it is going to turn out.

Jason said the e85 smells heavenly, I cant wait to experience it first hand myself.

Right now the ethanol is in the tank and she is idling great with the 1000cc squirtters and big fuel pumps. Step one is under way, just waiting on Tony the magician to wave his wand

Stopped by Buckhead Imports and Craig's car looks superb, biased off course. I always end up staring at the engine though. The finish of the CV2 really matches the silver well. Can't wait to see it on the move!

Thanks homey, I wish you snapped pic while you were there, I am having serious withdrawls from my girlfriend I am sure she has forgotten about me, but as long she continues to get new goodies, she should be happy.

I did just get this little treat from da BOYZ, HOUSTON, we have lift OFF

Craig - what are you doing with your seats? Keeping them or selling them?

Nice, cant wait to see what it makes! I may try and stop by if I have the time tomorrow. I have a call into Tony now about starting a project on the jag to bring it to the next level.

Watch that intercooler spray, it will suck some nitrous in the intakes for a little dry shot bump (been there).

A small shot helps the cooling but the E85 should do a lot of cooling to begin with. You'll see with that 195 IAT's rocket up because the blower is spinning out of its efficiency zone. Can't wait to see the results and decide what I want to do next......

I will release the IATS as I get them. Our dyno calibration is off right now, that needs to be corrected, so we are tuning on it only. We will take the girl over to a dynojet, and spin the rollers for the final numbers.

Thanks brotha

There really wont be any play by play HP/TQ numbers as the calibration is off. I imagine to just have IAT data, timing data, fueling data, begining HP/TQ numbers, and end HP/TQ numbers.

Once all is buttoned up, we will zip it over to a dynojet, and do some pulls to see what the final HP/TQ lands at.

In for results. If I ever put a shot on my car I would rig it so it would be the Push to Start button. Or that little button to open the 6 disc changer.

Yes, the final pull will be at Arthurs Dynolab. I highly doubt it will make it over there today though.
