Just got back from the 300 mile round trip to MSL & Torqueflow in Birmingham.
Great chaps, very welcoming & knowledgable.
The exhaust was modified first, then they ran a stock power run & it made 525bhp - i thought that was bloody good for a 2012 80,000 mile engine - proves it's been well cared for & serviced on time etc.
Then the map was uploaded & after a few power runs & adjustments we agreed that 625bhp was a healthy & safe figure.
They made me toast it up the road & back a few times to make sure i was happy...jesus, i couldn't stop grinning..
Drove most of the way home in sports mode using the M5/A419/A338 to have some motorway, dual carriageway & twisty A road action - also stopped at a private road & can confirm the acceleration between 80mph & 130mph is frankly alarming..
Met some fellow AMG owners, ate chicken & shot some pool, so all in all it was a good day.
Can't wait to drive to work tomorow morning...
