I think he meant to say 55K or 63, instead he said 55k of 63 , which kinda
confused me a bit, I was going to rush down stairs to find my kompressor on my 63!! It wasn't there

I would have thought with 7 speeds the 63 should pull well up to 150.
I think he meant to say "55 kompressor OR 63"

You got it!
After my poor results on my S600 do you think I should get the i/c pump looked at, as one member suggested.
Or would I notice a bigger difference if it was not performing well.

Get a new GPS based data logger or go to the track. Like I said before those g' based accelerometers need to be configured to the specific car and can be inaccurate. If it is still under performing you might want to check out your I/C pump.

Do you know how to configure it to my SL63, I don't remember anything
in the instructions for this.
The i/c pump is for my S600, how do I check it, or is it a garage job?
Is there an i/c pump on my 63, or is it just turbo cars?
How much is a new i/c pump?
Thanks
