Its true! 600+ bhp!
My first CL65 Dyno! 
Ink out some of my private details. Done at 36c in the afternoon, a very hot and humid day. Elevation not sure. Done 8 runs. This is the last run.

Thats awesome. I think MB is using a couple of hair dryers for turbos because the torque peaks out so fast and the HP drops off at the top end. There is probably almost no turbo lag, which is why they do it, but man I think those things are giving out fast. This is certainly not typical graphs of a turbocharged engine.
I remember the old 911 graphs with the KKK turbos there was nothing until about 4500 RPMs then this huge spike of power to about 6500.
The hot weather did nothing to help I am sure. You may get a lot more on a cold day.

Though the hp figure seems normal to me, the torque figure is way higher then claim. I got 768lb/ft instead of the mb claimed 738lb/ft.
I will definately be going for the kleeman stage 1 ecu upgrade now. price quoted to me is really expensive Euro 6850 bucks! Does anyone have any idea how much it will cost normally?
