have a 06 vette with cold air induction, exhaust & tune. the car runs 12.50's at 113mph. planning on selling my 02cl55 and getting into a 600, and would love to have it run side by side withe vette. will an cl600 with ecu upgrade run 12.50's?

12.5's are possible bone stock with no traction issues. My S600 ran 11.97@114.7 bone stock with drag radials. After the ECU upgrade my car ran 11.27@121.88. Jason Wade on this forum has an '05 CL600 that has run low 11's with only an ECU upgrade and drag radials.

With the ECU upgrade, you should be at low to mid 11's.
