          Best time so far is a 12.21 @ 114.. Basically stock, except for some intake work and mufflers.. Will be going with a pulley and tune probably next year.. Should be good for about 50 rwhp and put me into the 11s..

          The one Alex was looked at puts down about 500+ rwhp and 600+ rwtq on a dyno jet.. A very nice car..

          Great cars and engines indeed.. But with the way things are moving with mercedes, you wont even need to get an AMG .. The new twin turbo V8s in the 550 models have over 400 hp and 440 tq.. And with a tune, probably close to 500 hp and thats just a base model benz..

                    That's a thing of beauty right there. Prob a 3800lbs car or so I'd guess. Take the family out to dinner, fill her up with food from the store and then go run high 11's @118mph (guessing) at the track with basic bolt ons....... All in a days work

                            Yea these things are no joke with bolt ons. Actually closer to around 11.5 @ about 120- 122 with headers, pulley and tune.

                                I just wanted to make a list so you guys know what I have done to the car..

                                18x9.5 with 275/35

                                Lowering:
                                RennTech ELM (electronic lowering module) Able to adjust the height of the front or rear with a couple turns of a dial

                                Exhaust:
                                Resonator delete.. Magnaflow mufflers

                                Exterior:
