Mercedes is getting similar horsepower out of thier new bi-turbo v12 but with almost 690ft/lbs of torque. It is the most powerful mass (a few thousand) produced engine in the world.
Renntech has already gotten their hands on the SL55. By reprogramming the ECU they boosted hp by 15 and 15lb/ft torque, a larger crankshaft pulley and performance package add 27hp and 20lb/ft torque, and free flow exhaust system adds 20hp and 27ft/lbs. This brings the total up to 540hp and 575lb/ft. They claim a 0-60 in 4.1
