Thumbs up S600 Video 0-140 Acceleration

Still pulls hard, even with 130K miles on the clock.

Very Slow Mercedes
Take some vid of the road in front....my 70 hp diesel pickup does 140 all day long on the hoist, on the open road 86 mph and she gets close to slipping into a coma

That car needs a ECU upgrade. I'm semi-joking because the car has so many miles, but the ECU will make a big difference.

I have a Renntech upgraded CL600, which is only 200lbs lighter than the S600 and my car accelerates so much faster than the one in that video; night and day difference from 0-100.

That is so due to two key factors:

1. Your CL600 has two turbochargers.
2. It is tuned by RENNtech, and an ECU upgrade
on a turbocharged motor yields serious power.

Thank you for pointing this out. I originally thought it was the TT S600. I guess that S600 is pretty quick considering it's not the TT version.

HLG what type of exhaust do you have on your Benz? It sounds loud.






0-135 video

And does anyone know how to get rid of the speed limter on an American W140?
