CL500 4matic, A200 turbo
CL550 throttle valve position 85% at full

Hi All,
I bought recently CL550 4matic m273 engine, and have a lot of time to try to fix alone all of the issues with the car.
One of those is that at full throttle,when shows 100%, the valve position is 78.8 degrees or 85%. Is that normal?

the next is, the driver dynamic seat left cushion inflate earlier and more when take right corner, but that is still under investigation. I glued the 2 passenger seat cushions already and waiting my wife to to drive, when possible, so i can compare. the driver seat cushions are fine.

Upon logging my car recently at WOT yes it showed 85%, this was on CL63.

On a related topic if you're paying close attention to the throttle open degree/percentage because like me you were/are dissatisfied with throttle response i tried both a "tune" with some results and "sprintbooster v3" with excellent results. Easy to install and completely eliminated the response lag I was experiencing with my 09 CL550 with M273 naturally aspirated engine.

Does the sprint booster open the throttle valve 100% now and not 86%

I doubt it but not sure how to check. I think it works by "remapping" the amount the throttle opens in response to pressure on the gas pedal.

Yeah I think the box just cranks up the sensitivity of the gas pedal.
