Mkae sure you guys both get a powerchip. I strongly recommend this mod. My car feels like a completely different monster now. The throttle response is amazing. I am extremely pleased with it so far..

The second you push the gas pedal, you can tell the difference. The zero-60 seems considerably faster . This is really going to help my 1/8th mile times.
I am going to the track tomorrow, hopefully that stanko guy will be there. Ill try to get a top speed run on the way there.. Kill two birds with one stone.

Thanks for posting your thoughts on the software!~

To be honest, riding as a passenger in your car while doing r&d REALLY surprised me. The cars pulls so hard and throttle response when you gun it will snap your neck off. VERY powerful vehicle to begin with.

I can safely say I am now a believer in the 63's. At first I thought no SC would be horrible but I'm sadly/happily mistaken.

Today, I took a couple of my employees to lunch with me, and one of them said, "So, is it faster now?". We were at a red light. I floored it and the passengers neck almost snapped off. They were both like WOW. It was hilarious. The torque is incredible.

This is a problem the new ML has, most people think it's the same as the old car
This is why sales are slow in the UK.

I dont see too many ML63's in SoCal, which is unusual. I see lots of 350's though.
