I just remembered that he DOES have a built trans! Yea DS not gonna like it. Just ask Jody lol. Which is why I upgraded everything behind the engine

the kit will actually be targeted as e550 kit with e55 being an add-on since it uses a lot of n/a components.

YES! Hopefully there are no compatibility issues with 4-Matic, because I'd gladly have a twin-turbo E550 if the price is right. Curious what I would have to do transmission wise though, I assume I use the same 722.6/WA580 as the E55.

i am not very familiar with 550 models, i was under the impression that they are still m113 family engines. if they are not, i'll have to get the car in to see what kind of modifications are necessary to make it fit. my guess would be only the hot sides, cold sides should still be the same, may be just a different charge pipe

Valves covers get back from paint today, midpipe is now finished and it will be popped off and begin tuning next week. Depending on boost, but I hope to hit the numbers on our dyno with the 50 shot setup.

It will still be on the E85 fueling setup with meth for iat cooling.
