Thats really cool. My car was too one of the first AMG performance packaged SL55 in the world as well (lowered suspension, and larger brakes, LSD from AMG, Speedlimiter removed, A different ABC supension), but had the standard 55 front and wheels. I had an extremely loud exhaust system (this was stock comparing it the SL55s during its time), I also have the same "gearbox" you are talking about. Car was sent FabDesign first for a one-off job with the interior of the car. Car was faster than a standard SL55 AMG (which was 493bhp back then) but not like the power you produced. And my car is a 2003 model, I believe the 030 performance package was released in either 2005 or 2006.
You still have it, right? I did not quite understand, was your exhaust stock or not?
FabDesign have made a lot of cool stuff.

In summary, you have THE coolest job in the world, live in THE best city in the world, and always have the sickest cars before anyone else. Top it all off with a great knack for suspense building in your threads and a great style of writing and i would say it all means one thing.....
You ARE the Most Interesting Man in the World!

It is faster that standard because of the throttle body, was that what you meant? Does this has anything to do with his exhaust ?
