Hey, does anybody know what else I can do to get more bhp from my baby?

So far I have done the following :

I removed the Supercharger and replaced with T6 Hybrid rollaball Turbo
Then I had the block re-bored from 5.5L to 5.9L
Ported, polished and gass-flowed the head
Put in Racing cams, 2 x 295 degree
Add launch control
Racing clutch and gear box
Oversized valves and Knifed the crank
And weight reduction.....

I'm running about 875bhps....I wanna run 900bhps.

If anyone can give me some insite!

You wouldnt notice 900 over 875!
if you do have that car be greatful for what you have - think of use in reall world with 130BHP cars (or less!).

How much did all that cost like the "T6 Hybrid rollaball Turbo" isn't that like a 10k part? :twisted:

So you removed the AMG blower, one of the best made for a turbocharger?
So what did you do for a manifold? I would have upped the boost level and kept the supercharger, its better and it wouldn't have ruined the integrity and factory look of the car.
But hey its your car. And with those mods, you are not making anywhere near 875 bhp.

Why would you want 875hp anyway? It's still street legal right? Do you race it? It must have cost a fortune to do all that stuff.

you shouldn't generalize and think that al off sweden is coverd with snow 12 month a year.and it only snows in the artic parts off sweden. and rember we have the highest standard on road in Europe so i am quite sure that the sl 55 amg
will work fine here
