I am possibly thinking of selling my Beast

I'm not certain just yet, but for the right amount I would definitely sell it. keep in mind that I have a ridiculous amount of time, blood, sweat, and money invested in this car. I will not let it go cheap.

This car has ran ET 10.2 @138mph and makes close to 700whp on 18psi. And has just over 60k miles. It is still on stock motor, stock transmission, and stock fuel system with the exception of Eurocharged 550cc injectors. So I know that with a built motor and transmission it can handle more boost. With of course, an upgraded fuel system.

Mods:
Custom twin turbo system with twin GTX3076Rs
Custom Intake, down pipes, manifolds, Tial waste gates, Tial BOV
Custom aluminum exhaust with aluminum mufflers
UPD 3000 stall converter
UPD adjustable toe link and camber arms
Quaife LSD
BC Racing coil overs
AEM water/meth injection
Air to air front mount inter cooler
Dual AEM AFR gauges and AEM boost gauge
Custom ECU tune
Custom TCU tune (one that works with no issues)
Tuned on 100 octane




THIS IS JUST A FEELER, AS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK.

Make a cheap turbo kit based on your setup. And keep the car, so you can put in a built motor and transmission and hit the 9's (has any of the bigger Mercedes sedans done 9 seconds yet?)

I had to read the title twice, to make sure I read it right. It runs extremely well for a stock bottom end, and she's got more in her.
GL with whatever you decide to do.

Anyone can make a cheap turbo kit. It's the tuning that has killed me

I'll hit 9s it's just a matter of how low will it go
Quote: How much did the turbo setup cost to do?
It cost about 5pints of blood from my nuckles, endless trial and error with fitment issues and $1000 per dyno session that I can not count on all fingers
Quote: I know the feeling bro, once you get a itch, you tend to want to scratch it
Just testing brotha. Still not sure yet

Everybody has a friend that might be interested. make an offer and if it's worth it to me I'll sell. The worse thing I can say is no

Yeah, all my friends are selling or have sold theirs. My boy Miguel (305-E55) just sold his. That's why I've been considering it.

even though i've been busting your chops lately, i say don't do it. you have too much money and time invested to let her go. one of a kind car, brother. set her aside and give her a rest. pick up something new and make her a weekend car/ trailer queen. who in the hell else can say they have a WORKING TWIN TURBO M113K?

It's probably worth around $10k more than a stock one with your upgrades. Of course, you will have to.find the right buyer.

Okay, had a long meeting with my tuner today, and Im no longer considering selling. We are going to push this ***** to 725whp and that's our limit for all the stock parts.

I'll be hitting the track next Friday to see what happens. We know it will take a few tries in this heat down here, but **** it! It's on!!!!

So let me get this straight:

1. You dump over $50,000 into your toy "Body, wheels, mods, etc"

2. You were claiming to go low 10's if memory serves me right.

3. You spent well over a year or two to do it.

4. So you sell it.

Made out like a bandit didn't you

Sorry, couldn't resist

Good luck man.
I hope she stays together. It would be a tragedy if it let loose and caused damage to the turbos and such.
