I did not have these installed. I did not want to advertise.

The numbers are: 468 RWHP 492 RWTQ. That is about 585 FWHP and 615 FWTQ using 20% drivetrain loss with Package 5. This was on one of the new DynoJet 248s with the load cell (kind of like a Mustang Dyno from what I understand).

Here is the dyno sheet with the results from RENNtech Package 1 vs. RENNtech Package 5:

Man, you guys are driving me nuts! Sick cars for sure.

Car looks great, I love the power of 55, they sell clear markers to replace the ugly orange ones, check ebay for them.

Congratulations and welcome to the forum, I like what you've done to your car for more power you can order ported heads and get a crank pulley.

Awesome merc!

I actually had a bad puncture in the left rear less than two weeks after the wheels and tires were mounted. I ran over what I think was a huge bolt and it ripped a large hole / gash in the tread. I had to order a new tire. Luckily Pirelli had one in stock in Georgia and they shipped it over the weekend. I did not have the road hazard protection so I had to cough up another chunk of change plus the hassle of finding someone who won't scratch the wheels.

I asked around about ported heads and I heard they really don't do too much power wise for the 55s. Do you have some before and after dyno numbers? I have the lower crank pulley already.
