2006 E55 AMG
The tranny may not have been in sport mode which makes for a big difference. There is a night and day difference when I am in regular drive or sport mode. Manually shifting is even crisper than sport mode too.

C55asleep, you are dreaming if you think a header tuned V only makes 500rwhp lol. Most healthy stock cars make 470-480rwhp.

Btw,

Btw,
Please elaborate? Again, we are referring to a Ctsv with a tune and headers with no pulley. Btw I had one with 640rwhp so I have a good idea what they are capable of

At 534rwhp it ran 11.25 @ 121...... That was on nitto invos and in bad shape. It had an upper pulley intake and exhaust work and a dyno tuned. The new owner ran 10.50 @ 130 with a ****ty sixty and a new set up that I had done..

At the end a dyno number is just that... A number and tuning tool. I'm sure any dyno operator can make you have any dream number you want lol

Btw,
If the guy had headers and tune in sure he knows what he was doing ..I think I would've have eaten him up even if there was a mistake on sport or where ever he had the tranny on

I agree with you. Not once several times lol. But what I meant was about the headers and a tune and the power it puts down. I now have an E55 so seeing you whoop him gives me some hope on getting some of my buddy's and there V's lol

I can't stand it when people honk that way. It's awful. The starts were pretty sloppy at best. You were still the clear winner, but damn awful starts.
