Dynojet Test of C320?

Has anyone here tested a C320 on a Dynojet? If so, what were the results? I ask as I will be testing mine on a Mustang Dyno this week and wanted to know how these two different dynos compare.

It was in the middle 70's and average humidity. I also had a completely full tank as I didnt plan on running the car that day.

I also didnt know how to disable the traction control fully back then, so I had to basically leave the line from idle.

1/4 mile times

thats awesome considering the full tank, not stalling out and traction on... considering the wagon is only 50 ibs heavier and a little less aero dynamics that was a great run... a clk 430 convertable ran 15.5 when i was there with my chrysler 300m... i ran 15.1 @91 there was extensive work done i had prowler pro gears a kenne bell chip K&N intake straight pipe exhaust and i had a slight traction problem... almost no gas 75 degree day and took out the spare tire... cant wait to take the 320 to the track.. want to know what the power chip and the evosport pullies will do ill be ordering the pullies next week...

Yeah...15.4 wasnt too bad. I figured it had a few more tenths in it if I could have defeated the ESP, but I didnt know how to at the time. I think 91 mph is about it though (without cooler weather of course).

I weighed the wagon on a local gravel scale and it was right about 3600 lb (no passengers and about 1/3 a tank).

I looked into the chip for the car, but it sure seems like they are pricey for the gains.
