I'm new here, and still fresh into anything that could be considered VIP, but I've got big plans.
I've got a 95 GS with an Aristo swap and a single setup, and I'm shooting for 450whp. It'll be on the dyno this week after I install the 550's and make the catback. I'm also getting ready to lose the MB rollers, and I'm looking for some appropriately sized 19's and a good deal on some aero.

I've got another GS with the Aristo swap coming, which will probably go up for sale... so keep your eyes peeled. Thanks!

450 is nothing on a single setup..my buddy's were pulling that on stock twins. what size turbine are u running? polish out those headlights, slam it a little more, and it'll be cake on wheels, aka delicious.

i see that you guys with the one piece headlights always seem to have that yellow / old look and talking about cleaning them up my headlights are two piece and they look much brighter from the start and have a nice innnerside ,
so maybe search for headlights like mine ??
i stil got to change the bulbe so the orange is gone , but that's done easy
mine are glass maybe your one piece are some sort of plexi/lexan or so ????
here is what i mean :
btw just saw another lighting difference i only have a reflector in the outer taillights and not on the large centerpiece this onh has 4 reflectors , maybe ther are outer tailpieces without so when you mix the 2 different sets you can have no reflectors and only smoothness in the taillights witch wil look much more clean
it's pretty funny to see small differences in the same cars...
also my gs has spray units for the headlights witch i think look too bulky and i want to loose them again your front bumper is clean without them :)

Of course, the MB wheels are going up the road. Any suggestions on what to sell them for, and where to sell them? They're real AMG's, not knockoffs. I decided on my wheels today: Rays Aurthur Exchange (on CL right now) I'll get to the front bumper/intercooler when I go w/ aero.
To answer your question Richard, it's very driveable, but my exhuast scrapes on speedbumps. I'm hoping that the 19's will give me just enough space at this height setting to keep from ripping my new 3" off.
I'm running Tien HE's for suspension, and the turbo is a 70 trim T4. I realize that the engine/turbo is capable of much more, but the transmission is not. I'll be happy with 450. If I wanna go faster, I can drive the FD.
Now I'm off to fix my boost leak. Thanks guys.
