As expected, the 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8 from the regular" GLS 63 has had a light tinkering for this new, Brabus 850 XL". It was bored out to 6.0-litres, fitted with bigger forged pistons and rods, a new crank, and optimised cylinder heads.There"s also a new carbon intake, two new air filter boxes with a larger cross section, and carbon air ducts.Oh, and the small matter of special Brabus turbos with larger compressors, new intake and charge tubing and gold heat reflection sheathing.
