I ran in my 2005 C55 amg the following..
60' 1.9 secs
1/8 7.98
1000' 10.2
1/4 12.8 @ 119Mph
0-60 came out to be 4.6
2005 Red C55 AMG
Bought car used. (believe it has a ECU chip) Resonator delete, Intake, Spare tire removed during run..
People didnt believe me I didnt have anything done..
Anybody have an idea how I can check if my car has an ECU chip or anything else done to it?

a 12.8 i can believe, but not a 119 mph trap speed. you arent s/c or turbo'd so there is no way you trap 119. furthermore, a trap speed of 119 with a 12.8 ETA means you were spinning like one crazy a$$ ****. so your 0-60 time does not make sense either. i think you mean 12.8 at 109. thats much more reasonable.

as far as determining if your car is chipped, you could dyno your car and see what you put down, and compare what your numbers should be with and without a tune with your mods....at the same time, also compare your A/Fs with what they should be with and without a tune.
what was the DA and Temp when you ran that time? i'm sure analyzing your run and comparing it to stock C55s under similar conditions and those with similar mods with and without an ECU can help tell
i'm not sure if a tuner can tell other wise if your car as been chipped or tuned. i had no idea mine was previously tuned untill about 2 weeks ago lol and i have owned the car for 5 yrs
