How many hours did it take you to do your fabrication and build your engine?

About high RPM so I will order a turbo camshaft and maybe put a little beat bigger turbinhouse becaurse M103 high RPM are amazing, its sounds and feels amazing!

This is what I really fail to comprehend.
You're claiming to achieve 9000+ RPM with a M103-12V.
So at what RPM are you producing peak power and torque?

You previously posted running at 9000RPM and attempting a 0-200MPH run.
9000 RPM with 3.07 gearing would theoretically calculate to about 210 MPH.
Amazing that you claim to reach speeds with a .37cd that exotic super cars fail to reach.
AMG was never able to get more then 180 +/- with a W124.

No offense intended but would really like to see your dyno charts, especially the one where you indicated over 10K rpm.

I'm interested in the shape of the power curve !

Thanks

To drive w124 or w201 with 600+++Hp is something you must feel "live" to understand WHY some poeple never get happy with 0,5bar

Last time I drove a 600HP vehicle was 1972, so I more then know how it feels to run fast in a straight line.
