  1. so whats the point of ice if your never going to have ice in REAL WORLD conditions on the road ? Is it just an academic exercise , I dont know but seems like a big waste of time and resources to me, but I may be a troglodyte

  2. My 2004 e55 has…

    Tune from raceIQ
    72mm fixed scp
    168mm crank pully
    550cc injectors
    Looped fuel rail
    Kleeman shorty headers
    Split cooling w/
    Ice tank in trunk w/rule 2000 pump
    Johnson intercooler pump
    Snow stage 3 boost cooler

    Just had it on dyno today, 6-17-2020, and it made 490.90 hp and 614.76 torque with meth hooked up. Then we disconnected the meth and it lost 29hp and 20 ft lb torque. AFR is 11.3 to 11.4. Boost is at 16lbs. Mph on dyno hit 167 whatever that means.

    I'm running blue -20 windshield washer fluid as my meth.

  3. Your videos inspired me to get an e55. Went with the sl55 TB/snout,same Chinese LT headers, 83mm pulley + cooling mods. No water/meth. Tune is dialed in. Car made 508rwhp/565rwtrq. On the 2nd full pull nearly back to back. Ambient air was 63* peak IAT was 138…

  4. I think you may have a misconception concerning "boost". More boost does not necessarily mean more power. Boost is really a measurement of the difference in air flow the motor is "pumping" vs the amount of air flow your supercharger is producing. The excess air from the supercharger creates a back pressure which we commonly refer to as boost. Exhaust mods increase the ability of the motor to flow air and while boost pressure may lower you are capable of making more power if you are flowing more air. If boost drops off with an unrestricted inlet as engine rpm increases, that is a tell tale sign the supercharger volumetric efficiency (air cfm in vs. air cfm out) is dropping off. The Twin Screw (and YES the E55 has a Lyschom twin screw supercharger NOT a Roots Type) produces approx. the same boost at any engine rpm. Every revolution of the Twin Screw delivers the same cfm or liters per revolution i.e. 2L per revolution at 2000-6000. That’s why these superchargers are referred to as “positive displacement.”

  5. Intake temp is known to be a big deal, as there used to be a Moroso Cool Can the fuel line would run through but not that much help as the volume of fuel is about 1:11.5 to air. So cool the air. Obviously. But the differences can be astounding! My Magnum RT is another car altogether when the atmospheric conditions are right. Chilly days with cool maybe 50% humidity at anywhere between say 40 degrees and about 55 or so and the thing feels like a different engine. Summer time heat soak, it becomes a dog, no bottom end. But winter time not too cold because the humidity drops, and the tires will smoke from a 15 mph roll till the upshift. One time last week I cleared the computer and I don’t know why but it seemed to just explode. I’ve never had it shift into second and keep smoking the tires. The back end was loose at about 45 mph car speed(70 wheel speed) and I was smiling like that first lay with a new lady friend. You know what I mean. Smiles for miles. Smoke em if you got em.

  6. Can't believe a guy with your knowledge let someone rev the engine to the red line and just seconds later shut it down. And not once. Nice way to kill it, letting all the heat trapped around the cylinders!!! Good thing the M113 is so sturdy.

  7. Hey Alex, any suggestions on w212 love the AMG but looking into e550 was looking for a 2008 but left a dealer here in the Atlanta area that has a 2010. If you could send me a link on what to look for. Going through your YouTube looking for a video. Thanks
