Today I visited MSL to run the car on their Dynojet Research dyno, taking Mr Palfrem along for the ride.
Acid was as attentive as he always is and did the runs himself.
A couple of items worthy of note:
My previous E63 was completely standard and ran 513hp compared with MB's declared 518hp, thus validating Acid's dyno.
For a while now, our home grown standard tune 5.5 t/t's have been producing more than the MB declared output, and the American tuners have been saying that these engines are more powerful than declared.
My S is completely standard and results are as follows:
638 flywheel horsepower (585hp according to MB).
865 Nm torque
Am I pleased - you bet
