AMG Twin Turbo V8 and the Red Pig

Here are some new and exciting images of the Red Pig and the all new twin turbo motor AMG will be using in its S and CL models. We here at RENNtech are ecstatic about this motor! Stay tuned for massive power gains!

Thanks for the pictures Dan. Was wondering if you could clarify something for me. I have read up on the MCT but still am a bit confused. Was this originally an auto trans from which AMG removed the torque converter and installed a clutch pack or something?

I can't wait to see a RENNtech / Brabus / Switzer shootout with one of these. Tym and our technology partners at TiAL are THE turbo wizards, while (in the past) RENN had been known for engine builds. Brabus will probably just engine-swap one of these into a C class or Smart car or something ... it'll be interesting to see how it pans out and which response will produce the most cohesive package.
