E55 AMG vs CTS-V Video!

, sitting in the shop now, about to begin tearing it apart.A guy a few days ago just went 10.5@131 in south Florida with a 1300ft DA in a V, he dynoed 610. A little exciting considering I already dynoed over that in a 2300ft DA, and about to add more ponies

It is rare that the stock pumps have a problem so I am torn right now if the stock pump is "failing" and barely flowing or if it has something to do with my pretty big heat exchanger, but we are leaning toward the pump, I am just trying to figure out if somehow something is stuck in the pump causing it to not flow, there is air trapped (we bled the heat exchanger and air should escape from the reservoir too though) or the pump is just bad. So now I need to decide what pump of the available options to get and then get that in and hopefully have that issue fixed.
The car didn't do the number I was hoping for but I guess at the end of the day it is just a number. It was after all a different dyno and different day. The numbers ended up being 639whp 622wtq. I haven't really driven the car hard yet, just for street logs/adjustments, during that I had the tuner and then a forum member here (AMG E POWER) that met up to hang out also in the car. I really don't know what kind of number I would be likely to see on the street though considering there were changes made after leaving the dyno and street tuning such as 1* of timing removed in the upper rpms but then the car also again like last time ran just over 1.5psi more boost on the street. I went to a slightly bigger supercharge pulley (2.55 vs 2.5) so I know boost was going to lower a little but it didn't really look like much change on the logs since we saw 15 last time and 14.9 on one of the runs on the dyno this time then 16.6 I think it was on the street vs 16.8 last time.
The car is still definitely fast but I am wondering how bad the pump is hurting me with it now flowing at least all the time, the car takes to long to recover and I am starting at to high of a intake temp on the street when logging. We saw like 130 in the blower while cruising and then 170 at the end of a pull to about 115mph. This was with a intake temp from the other sensor a the MAF on the air intake of around 90, so it was good there but in the blower was not good at all.

he's a great guy, hung out the whole day. His car sounds like a damn NASCAR ! It will trap 130+ without a doubt. Get that pump looked at and if that's the problem I think u will def gain another 20whp just from lowering the iats. Nice meeting u man, drive safe in both ur beasts !

I could hear it running so I opened the ice box and saw dead water in there (no movement) and then squeezed the hoses (both feed and return) to the supercharger and literally there was zero pressure in the hoses like absolutely nothing was flowing. Has me a little worried until I get this figured out, I wish I had a logger in the car to know what the intake temps were looking like. I just don't understand how the pump is running but no water is moving.
I guess if I do a blast through the gears I will need to wait a little before doing a second blast. Car feels strong though for not working right at the moment.
It has to be the pump, if you stick your hand in the tank you can only feel the flow if you totally block off the tube leaving a small crack between your fingers.The water should be ripping out of there.

I don't want it to be searchable on Youtube since with the broken intercooler pump the car is running "not up to par" right now, but still decent so here is the private link. Not the best but something is better than nothing for now. Elliot and I in the V and E63 driver alone.
Renntech tuned E63. As you see in the first run where I was the least "heat soaked" while still being heat soaked I was gone and he couldn't catch me, unfortunately I had the camera facing backwards on his car since we had a camera in mine ran by my passenger RedbullJnky but none of the video came out. We got about 1.5 car lengths out front on that first run, after that he jumped with all the confusion on the second run and I couldn't catch him then the 3rd run was about 1 min later. Perfect start which I pulled for a few seconds but then couldn't overcome the heat with my pump not flowing so he caught me and pulled ahead about .5-1 car separating us before he let off at around 120, he didn't want to go any higher since he has some kind of vibration from what he thinks is spacers he is running that needs to get sorted out.
I am sure my intake temps were at least 170 if not higher by that point from the data logging done 2 days before when we discovered the broken pump while doing runs from 50-115ish where I was starting at 130 and ending at 170 for intake temps.
He wants to meet again though so hopefully we can and also have a few other cars there next time. New pump should be here Thursday, so it will be installed before I head back north through his area, so I will definitely be ready for battle then.
I wish I remember what Elliot (Redbulljnky) said as we were pulling away in the first run, I think he was a little surprised to say the least haha.
