1/4 mile times 2016 E63 S AMG
What 1/4 mile times do the E63s run at sea level? I'm at over 5000 ft above sea level and really surprised my stock 2016 ran 12.1 here. If I tune it how much quicker would it be in the 1/4 or 1/2 mile?

On a good run they’re seeing mid 11s so you’re doing pretty good for 5k ft. You might be able to see an 11 with a better launch.

Don't use race start...turn traction all the way off...brake boosting to 2700-2800 rpm and launch it. With traction off our cars get 2-3 tenths quicker times in the quarter mile

The launch was good on that run, not perfect though, I had a slow reaction time because I was sitting there trying to let the boost build. The launch could have been better with a little more boost.

What about on a non prepped service eg on the street?
wouldnt turning TC all the way off and brake boosting cause wheel spin?

E63s
Wait until the car is warmed up to full temp via the AMG gauge when your oil temp turns from blue to white, push the sport/traction button , at a full stop slam on the brake push pretty hard and hold it now rotate the select knob to R , then the cluster will prompt you to to pull the right paddle shifter to engage , floor the gas, let it rev to 3k let go of the brake and say Bye Bye 🤪

People have reported that comfort suspension, s+ trans, and brake stall to 2000-2500 is best launch with tires at 32-35psi
