Car does not feel slow at all. I have 58k miles and have another 2.5 years of warranty. My main issue is the warranty ****ing me over. So yesterday I did some trials on the launch and still im getting a little slip. Sport mode, suspension raised, rev to 1200 rpm then take 0.5 to floor the pedal.

What does the term mean "rolling".

I would be more worried about the car doing 20 drag launches than running a tune.

depends on the cls if its the new biturbo one, you dont stand a chance, i had a run against the old one, q mile, passed him by 4/5 car lengths. with just a tune.

street rubber sticks better when cold, its only the slicks and semi slicks that do the job when warm...

So I decided to go with only a eurocharged tune. Would that be enough to beat an M5?

Still can't get over the fact that cls550 got me. He has a 2 second head start and we stopped at 60.

nah man, not to the wheels around 470 whp.
we couldnt get the real reading in 4th because the dyno didnt go more than 250 kph and at 250kph in 4th it was only 5000 rpm, and mine does 6550 rpm till it changes gear. the tuner said it was easy 470 whp... and torque we could get the reading because of the wheelspin
