Ran my tuned ML63 with VBOX (result pics)

I finally had the opportunity to do a single run with my new Vbox Sport

meter..what a nifty little device

We are at about 2400 feet here and I'm happy with the results and hope with some tweaking..few extra mods like downpipes when they are available etc I can maybe get into the 11's..now that would be awesome.
Temp was -20C great for making power and fuel was 3/4 full with no passenger...19" MB heavy wheels with winter tires...Frank pulled real hard with traction control off/sport plus mode/auto shift/foot to floor no loading...the results







here is a corrected factor for altitude...

Nice! How do you like the VBox? I've been thinking of getting one myself.

It's a nice little device..If you get one don't get the windshield mount..it's not needed as I just set it in the small opening in front of the armrest and it had no problem getting sat connection..

Nice

How was the wheel spin at launch. Wondering if the 0-60 and et was limited by traction or power.

I think it was a pretty clean run. No doubt there is some degree of slippage there but I think it performed near it's potential
