I can get 28+ on my s550 on the highway if I take it easy. Eurocharged tune helps allot. Had same on my s500 but was much easier to get there with 500 engine.

Eurocharged is a running company. Plenty posts on this board that will give you all the info you want. Also do a quick google search will take you to their site.
