I felt that lag big time on a test drive when taking off from a stop. Floor it and the car waits a decent bit of time before applying power. Any tune that eliminates that would huge.

It goes without saying that the numbers on the Alpha Tune are sick.

That seems to be the case with every race I've seen.

With all things equal typically yes, as far as E63's go our AWD car is quicker/faster tuned than our RWD was so it seems car dependent

I soon will have a w212 e63 m156 weistec e63, surprisingly am expecting a 1/4 mile time as quick as the ams/alpha 2014 e63.

With traction control on you still feel it a little bit, however with traction control off, there is no lag at all

Fast sedans wearing the letters AMG are nothing new, but this 10-Second E63 is just redonkulous. Yes, that's a technical term.

Alpha Performance recently took its 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG 4MATIC development vehicle to the Great Lakes Dragaway. Two blasts down the strip would tell it a great deal about the potency of its Alpha 7 upgrade package.

The tuner stated, "Our AMG was equipped with only our Alpha Tune and prototype Alpha Downpipes and Cat-Back Exhaust. The full Alpha 7 Bi-Turbo upgrade will include an Alpha Boost Cooler Kit in the future, but we were eager to see the results of just a tune and exhaust." All four 20-inch Vorsteiner wheels and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires spun their ways to a 10.85-second quarter-mile at 129.31 mph in the first run. In the second pass, the boosted Benz nailed down a 10.879 at 129.21.

I think it's safe to say the Alpha 7 bundle was effective. You can see for yourself in the video below.

When it returns to the lanes with its M157 Alpha Boost Cooler Kit and Carbon Fiber Intake System installed on the E63, Alpha Performance hopes to get into the mid to low 10-second range and the 130+ mph stratosphere.
