Big fan from Egypt have same color but sl500. ...I have issue with suspension I convert it to coil over but no sway bar infront causing car to be little loose on high speed any suggestions..thank you in advance
Beautifully done. As an owner of a 2003 SL500 I love the R230 shape and think it is by far the best looking SL, but what you’ve done has definitely enhanced the look and most definitely the sound and performance 👍
And another stunning work of your automotive art...but seriously when Lucifer finds out you have his favorite ride...he is not going to be a happy camper!
the m113k was/is a bullet proof design only Mercedes would have a 493hp motor and 65 twin turbo 12 cylinder motor at the same time. I have a m156 which was produced after this motor but I many ways I wish I had the 113k for one it was easier to make more hp. beautiful build and if you love read this car is the car for you
So much thought put into this build. I have an SL55 in fantastic condition, with a few upgrades, and I aspire to make it my own, as you have. Kudos to you.
I am currently having the exhaust on mine, and with the custom modded exhuast I havent quite gotten the right muffler and cats. Heard what you said for cats, however can you show where you put the seond x pipe and what the brand and series of the mufflers were. I go cats in the stock position x pipe then racing resonaters
Another masterpiece Brian, love the unique color and what you've done to this particular car's exhaust tone. Definite improvement to my MBH LT header setup on my 2008, probably the result of the custom work you've done downstream of the cats. Curious if you data log IAT's, and if so, how much do they rise during a hard pull to say 140mph? I'm seeing a 60+ degrees rise above ambient which of course causes me to lose timing due to MB coding.
I appreciate the good words William! This exhaust system is definitely my favorite thus far. It has a really a balanced higher pitched sound without any rasp. I see somewhere in the range of a 30-40 degree rise on a pull that long.
@FisherFast Brian, where can i get the rear diffuser? I would like the large fin ones on my 2006 SL55 build. I've basically exhausted my search online and now starting to ask custom carbon manufacturers. Thank you!
awsome car i guess its safe to say those surge tanks made some extra power, i know i had e55s on my dyno with 77mm pulley 82tb top out 535hp. I like that combo i might have to step up my 500hp stock pulley car.
like the wheel and tire setup. i have a 2007 sl55amg im customizing . what offsets are you using will this work on my year? 255/35/20 front 295 /30/20 rear. tks
So well done and so tastefully done, no bean machine here, but instead of that wifi streaming thing, I would have put a Kenwood eXcelon DMX 907S double din deck with the 3D Garmin Nav with Apple Car Play and Android Auto, multiple camera jacks for front and rear view cams. They make clean install kits for the R230s with the module to make all the wheel buttons talk to it as well.. Yes, the deck is $900, but worth EVERY PENNY and would bring that interior up to 2022 standards. That Mercedes Nav and system was a dinosaur back in 2003 and was never worthy of that Black Forest Beauty
How did you install/connect the Bluetooth unit in the glove compartment to the stock stereo? I once saw on your channel a 2005 SL65 with the same Bluetooth unit as well. I'm extremely curious...
Power for the unit has to be hardwired and then you can use an aux cable to the factory jack (2003-2004) 👍 In the 05+ cars, the aux jack was removed and you need to add in another gateway that replaces the CD changer to gain aux capability.
See our builds are similar. I also have the vertini wheels, similar engine upgrades but yours are much more thorough. Would love to get your cooling system and exhaust setup on mine!
Hey! Nice spec looks pretty smart. Did not you considered about porting? Did you did any research about gas flow? Does it makes any sense? I want to buy SL 55 and raise power to ~700 h.p. looking for ways how it can be done in most efficient way. Looks like you know something=)
Do you feel like the there was any gains going from factory manifolds too the VRP style manifolds? I know you do a lot of these cars with same pulley combo and boost levels so you would be able too tell if there was a gain. Thank you
I watch all your videos and I would absolutely love to buy the set up for this dual air intake you made!!! Would you sell them made up? If so let me know thanks man!
Thanks Harry! To my knowledge, Magma Red was only offered in 2003 before switching to Mars Red in 04. Unfortunately do not have any info on production numbers though.
What is your secret for removing stuborn rear brake caliper bolts? Thanks in advance. I am very inspired by what you do to SL55s. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, your video's are great! I just bought an SL55 AMG 2003 with 45k miles. I would like to do the modes you put on your cars. I would really like the carbon fiber interior and the lights. do you know where I can get these?
Brian, what an amazing car and what amazing mods you have done! hats off mate.... What would you suggest for starter mods? Pulley? make? exhaust system's are not easy to find for SL55, any suggestions, this sounds amazing! Thank you in advance
Amazing 👏. Loving all your videos. Question. I have an SL500 2005. Is it possible to throw a super on it and work at a set up lime yours? Or is it not worth the effort? Should I sell it and look for an SL55?
wow this is one beautiful car! I was interested in your Bluetooth set up.. I driving SL too. I to have a auxiliary port! I think I would like one done the way you do it can you put me in contact with the people who supply you with the parts?again just an outstanding car
These lenses on these low mileage cars are usually still in great shape only requiring some light polish. I had have to wet sand and clear only a few sets that were beyond trying to save. Unfortunately the lenses aren't sold separately from the entire headlight assembly.
Thanks Jeffery! At this time, I am only working on personal projects due to material shortages and inflated parts cost. I can let you know if this changes in the near future.
Hi Joseph. They range in price depending on modifications, maintenance, and mileage. Some have a bit more done to them than others and this one is in the top range.
I can never say enough about the quality of your work, Brian! The thought & care you put in are second to none. It's art!
What a beautiful build! No one does it like you do!
Thanks Waylin! 🙏👍
Big fan from Egypt have same color but sl500. ...I have issue with suspension I convert it to coil over but no sway bar infront causing car to be little loose on high speed any suggestions..thank you in advance
Always enjoyable to see your hard work! You are the SL55AMG master!!
Thanks for the good words Ivan! 🙏👍
Beautifully done. As an owner of a 2003 SL500 I love the R230 shape and think it is by far the best looking SL, but what you’ve done has definitely enhanced the look and most definitely the sound and performance 👍
Very well done sir. You have great taste. I particularly like the color-match details on the exterior.
That is some fine work. love the new touch on the door handles.
Thanks Martin! Sometimes it's those little details that make the biggest difference.
Another awesome build sir! Btw I finally found myself a SL55. Thank you for your videos.
Thanks Dontee'! Congrats on your purchase, enjoy in good health!
65 the real monster!!!
WELCOME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Oliver! Feels great to be getting back to normal 👍
And another stunning work of your automotive art...but seriously when Lucifer finds out you have his favorite ride...he is not going to be a happy camper!
I appreciate the great feedback Michael and this one is for sure hot! 😂😈
Best 55’s in the world!!
Humbled by the great feedback, thanks! 🙏😎
That thing is nuts man! I was going to get a real low mile sl500 but it has pushed me over the edge, need that whine!
Good God… your work is flawless! 🤩

Nice work man! Love tha red color on the SL55👌🏼🔥
Thanks Pezzow! 🙏👍
Beautifull car, my favourite colour red and black. That AMG 55 engine is bullet proof
I love the customization of the headlights!
Fantastic car and sound….❤️❤️
Sound of that engine idling is insane - sounds like a big diesel locomotive
Absolutely Gorgeous!
So much thought put into this build. I have an SL55 in fantastic condition, with a few upgrades, and I aspire to make it my own, as you have. Kudos to you.

I absolutely Love it! The beauty is in the detail. Maybe one day I will get the SL55 after I sell my S55. They are fun cars for sure!
Holy smokes it’s a monster 👿

love the build! If you don’t mind me asking. Where’d you get the carbon fiber shift knob and steering wheel from?
Absolutely beautiful Mate. Well done be safe👍🇦🇺🍺
Perfect
Wow..awesome build as always 👌..thanks for info and keep making these sleeper sl55 amg videos coming..LOL 😆
Thanks Alfonso! Looking forward to it 👍

Finaly! Amazing video!
Thank you!
An absolute stunner - you keep getting better and better! Lol
Excellent build as always, a lot of the same stuff I want to do to mine. Hope I can get mine to be half this nice at some point!
Now I want one. 😍
You won't regret it! 😎
awsome car i guess its safe to say those surge tanks made some extra power, i know i had e55s on my dyno with 77mm pulley 82tb top out 535hp. I like that combo i might have to step up my 500hp stock pulley car.
Thanks Tim! Adding more mods is always a great idea 😈
I would love to know your measurements on your pieces of you dual air intake man!! Nice 👍
like the wheel and tire setup. i have a 2007 sl55amg im customizing . what offsets are you using will this work on my year? 255/35/20 front 295 /30/20 rear. tks
what offsets are you doing on this setup?
Got the video of you swapping the battery for a supercharger coolant. Id like to do the same.
Outstanding !!
Thanks Dennis! 🙏😎

Car looks amazing Brian …are you still customizing these SL55’s 🤔 ?!?

Thanks for the video. Love your car
Stunning
Welcome back, you and cnterline need to get both cars together and do a comparison video.
I want recommendations on what to do to my e55 amg , its crazy how you was getting these SL55 amgs like it was nothing
Very nice work!!
See our builds are similar. I also have the vertini wheels, similar engine upgrades but yours are much more thorough. Would love to get your cooling system and exhaust setup on mine!
Thanks Aaron! Sounds like you have a great setup as well 👌
@@FisherFAST want to sell me the intake setup?
Hey! Nice spec looks pretty smart. Did not you considered about porting? Did you did any research about gas flow? Does it makes any sense? I want to buy SL 55 and raise power to ~700 h.p. looking for ways how it can be done in most efficient way. Looks like you know something=)
Is there a way to buy Sl 55's from you brian? because those Masterpieces are just wild and quality! Love it and keep it up :D
Hope the 72mm works well! You think those vrp plenums help at all
Do you feel like the there was any gains going from factory manifolds too the VRP style manifolds? I know you do a lot of these cars with same pulley combo and boost levels so you would be able too tell if there was a gain. Thank you
Sounds like a Turbine, i like your tyres👍
I watch all your videos and I would absolutely love to buy the set up for this dual air intake you made!!! Would you sell them made up? If so let me know thanks man!
Brian I have a 2003 sl55 in magma red.Do you know just how rare this color is? Another great build !
Thanks Harry! To my knowledge, Magma Red was only offered in 2003 before switching to Mars Red in 04. Unfortunately do not have any info on production numbers though.
Nice ride. Where did you find the carbon fiber trim pieces ?
What is your secret for removing stuborn rear brake caliper bolts? Thanks in advance. I am very inspired by what you do to SL55s. Thank you for sharing.

Interesting and informative 🇯🇲
Gorgeous ❤️ car
Very, very nice!
Thanks Joseph!
Brian, what an amazing car and what amazing mods you have done! hats off mate....
What would you suggest for starter mods? Pulley? make? exhaust system's are not easy to find for SL55, any suggestions, this sounds amazing!
Thank you in advance
Not a fan of the VRP surge tanks but awesome build Brian
Amazing 👏. Loving all your videos. Question. I have an SL500 2005. Is it possible to throw a super on it and work at a set up lime yours? Or is it not worth the effort? Should I sell it and look for an SL55?
beautiful thing
hey Fisher, any info u can provide me on intake kit for the SL55? Please provide, need to get one like the many cars you showcased... Thanks!
Beautiful car!! What are the specs for the wheels, in regards to offset and sizes? Thanks
Badass SL55 build Brian!! Did you use a 3" Corsa Extreme catback from an 18 coyote mustang?
awesome just awesome 👍👍👍
Thanks Morten! 🙏😎
Sounds like a damn hellcat 😦
🔥
is there a link to the 3 inch carbon fiber intake tube left and right runners? or where do you get the pieces from?
I noticed you have the flappers on the top! I just got sick of repairing mine and left them off! any suspension problems?
wow this is one beautiful car! I was interested in your Bluetooth set up.. I driving SL too. I to have a auxiliary port! I think I would like one done the way you do it can you put me in contact with the people who supply you with the parts?again just an outstanding car
Did you notice a difference with the VRP surgetanks?
How do you get the headlight lenses soo clean and clear? Are they new or just wet sand and clear coat??
These lenses on these low mileage cars are usually still in great shape only requiring some light polish. I had have to wet sand and clear only a few sets that were beyond trying to save. Unfortunately the lenses aren't sold separately from the entire headlight assembly.
i have an sl65 with 255/25/20 and 305/25/20 and keep bending through sets will i be able to fit 255/35/20 front and 305/35/20 rear
255/35/20 & 295/30/20 is the combo of choice.
That is a beautiful car I have tried to contact you I have a SL55 I was wondering do you do personal work for people
Thanks Jeffery! At this time, I am only working on personal projects due to material shortages and inflated parts cost. I can let you know if this changes in the near future.
How much did that car sell for?
Headlights.
Done by you?
Yes sir 👍
I would like to get sl 55 done like yours. And how much
Where do you get your shift knobs/boot kits from?
Would the manufacturer be able to make me one of these big fin rear diffusers or can i order through you? Thank you!
Scratch this off the list, I bought a really sweet large fin rear diffuser, high quality, from Mr X who manufactures these out of Taiwan.
Can you please tell me the model number you use for the green filters for the cai... Thx
How are these cars so cheap? For $40,000 you can have a fast, beautiful and fairly high tech car. Way ahead of their time and timeless design.
The abc suspension always need repair. That about it.
Good, I like slept on goodies at a slept on discount
Can you show you made the double x pipe exhaust please?
If it would be my car i would have made the brake calipers in gold color and the rims white :-)
What is the stock versus modified engine compression ratio?
❤️🔥
❤❤🔥🔥
Thanks Jeffrey! 👍
I wish such a thing would be legal on switzerland
How much would it cost to get my sl like yours
Awesome work as always, where did you get your steering wheel?
Thanks Jim! I have a few different vendors to pull from based upon timing/availability.
Will this be available on BaT?
Hello Bhutch. This car will more than likely be for sale in the next week or two. I'll make a post when the listing goes up.
sounds like an XKR with chopped pipes
How can I get my sl55 amg worked on by u
How do I get my top down on my99 Benz c lx320
How much this was sold for?
man can you do my sl55, I live in NY
How much are you selling these cars for?
Hi Joseph. They range in price depending on modifications, maintenance, and mileage. Some have a bit more done to them than others and this one is in the top range.
