Damn, I wish I would've seen this sooner, I used to live in Augusta Pines and my old roommate called asking me about it after seeing all the cars outside.d

Do you know what all they would work on? He has a 71 chevelle SS that he was wanting some work done to.

I know he works on alot of domestics, as well as the owner owns a GT2.

So they do P-cars as well.

6thz28:

This is Sean Ellis's AMG. He was going to bring his vette (402ci F1-R blower) out but the the blower belt took a hit.

Good to see everyone.

I got on the dyno just before it got sick. Here is my dyno sheet and a video of the run. I forgot to turn of the A/C and the car would not pull to redline on the dyno - not sure why as I did have it in dyno mode. It looks like HP and TQ have peaked by that point anyway.

Car - '06 CLS55 AMG RENNtech Package 1 (lower pulley and ECU).

Best run was the first run - 423.5 RWHP / 485.67 RWTQ

RENNtech claims 514 crank HP and 566 crank ft-lbf torque. Assuming 18% drivetrain loss through the 5-speed automatic, the RENNtech rear wheel numbers should be 421.48 RWHP and 464.12 RWTQ. It did better than that so I am pretty happy. RENNtech Package 6 on the way this spring / summer.



VIDEO BELOW -




Vette is still being tuned - snapped blower belt last Monday on first pull. Hope to have it back on the dyno this week.

I know there were a lot of pictures taken and some other video, so post up.
