Twin Turbo V12 M998

[Mogman]

With a .8314 5th gear it will be buzzing along, with my .61 6th I am turning about 2250@80MPH, a quick cal. says you should be turning a little over 3000RPM, it should sound real nice!!
I ran a 475HP tune and was not able to break anything, but it was just too much fun and it was going to get me in trouble, being able to bust the tires loose at 30MPH is a blast but the thing immediately tries to swap ends, also my intercooler is a little small and the EGTs were running high so I am just running a 365HP stock tune now, I can still take any 4wd off the line that I have come across and it is still more fun than the law allows.
I will someday get off my butt and install DSP5 so I can switch tunes on the fly but I am way behind on my projects as it is at this time.

I have not really followed the salvage MB prices but would assume they would not be as high as most would guess, I WILL be paying more attention NOW!

That is really something. Now find a way to put a stick into one of these things lol

Is there a pic of the removed gutless wonder in the scrap bin where they should have been placed the day they left the factory ?

Considering it’s about time for first fire I figured I could make a thread about it.

Picked up a 998 with a blown motor
