Might be better to just stab the gas part way with ESP off, until youre off the line, and then floor it.

Daytona is fun, if you come up for the 24 hour race, 4 of us went last year ( renncpe and two others) had a blast and saw some good racing, I pit for a friend in the Grand-Am series, Audi, just before the 24 hour and will do it again this year.

For those who are interest in performance times I got some good news! I install the pulley myself on Wednesday and on Friday I went finally to the track! before my pulley my best time was 15.86 and yesterday night I improved a lot almost a second less I did 14.96 in the first run and then in my second 15.1 , but in the second one I think my car was too cold because an accident happened and they closed for 2 hours! I am very happy with that I never think about I can be in the higher 14 seconds! I know maybe I can improved those times a little more if try again after the computer recognized all the boost, but that will be next year after I come back from my vacations so I think my c230 k is one of the fastest with an auto trasmision!
Wow almost a full second! cool!!! Congratulations, have you done K&N air filter??? Look at E55 AMG thread I posted the time diference between paper and K&N on my car. Just a thought, every little bit helps

K&N does not make a filter for the C230k's, although buellwinke had one custom made i believe. Diego has a ITG filter which should be comprable to K&N, although we never saw dynos of both.

For what I've heard ITG filters better but often times you will lose some power, K&N filters and will give you a little performance, in my case I didn't dyno, but track test and I immediately cut one tenth on the quarter mile, which should be good for 4 to 5 hp, but the best happened on monday and tuesday on my trip to illinois, I got over 2 mpg better average than before.

problem with dyno is that its more expensive then the filters (anywhere from $35 specials to typical $65-75 for 3 runs, extra for A/F ratio data etc). Although if I had the ITG and K&N I could have done it with stock. Howerver 3 runs of stock in same temp just about 5min apart showed different hp and torque so cant really know the advantage of the ITG/K&N filter (160hp 1st run, 162hp 2nd run, and 165hp 3rd run)

Well the way I did it is by best time ever, the best time I had ever gotten out of the car with new paper filters was 13.293 @ 60°F, the night I tested the K&N filters the car ran a best time of 13.300 @ 60°F, and as soon as I put the K&N filters it ran 13.209 @ 60°F.
