Mad Hatter
Gotta go Faster
Well car is in the paint shop hope to have it out next week.... ha!! always have keep positive..
In the mean time my intrepid mechanic has been working on a 2018 S550 automatic for drag. the gen 3 dyno numbers are pretty impressive.
With 93, lth, JLT cai and custom catless exhaust and his own in house tune, he got.....
Then with E85 he got
and at the end with 93 and a shot of nitrous....
Some pretty stout numbers, was impressed with the Gen3 motor and you don't have to change injectors to run E85. Told him to keep learning about tuning on other peoples cars!! I will stay with AED as long as he will have me since he has a lot of hours tuning behind him. But hats off to my guy for diving into something new. Most of the tuners down here are engine busters.... add advance till it explodes, then go back a degree. Well, some in the US follow that road as well.
The Nitrous graph makes me nervous as some of his cars will be my competition once we hit the track. But thats what makes us want to go faster or thats what one keeps telling oneself....
Gen 3 crate engines are starting to look pretty good. It took us a ton of effort and money to get to 470rwhp on a Gen1.
