Advice needed: Quest for 500whp
Hey gang, I am new to the AMG life and I got myself a 2005 E55. I have been doing a lot of reading on here and trying to see what mods work best to achieve the goal of 500WHP. I really want to maintain the "sleeper" vibe so I don't wish to change the exhaust but if I must then ok. I am open to suggestions to point me in the right direction. I have already got the gist that IC pump is a must regardless and upgraded H/E so these are already in the cart

Although I feel like its been covered somewhere before, what are the +/- of modifying the diameter of the S/C pulley vs the Crank Pulley?

No intake mods.
Based on how highly ppl speak of their work I would make that drive as well.

See mods in sig below. Dyno was a DynoDynamics which reads lower than a Dynojet no idea by how much. Enjoy.

Nice. Thats still a bad *** car even at 469 but you got 481 which is sweet. Did you have to do a lot of exhaust work with the mid length?

Search the forum. There is a thread that is devoted to blokes who run low 1/4 times and their mods. Find a package and do that.

Nope - KLEEMANN headers - any exhaust shop can do it
