Man blowing off the tires thru second in a 4600lb car is downright fun....rolling onto the gas in second from a roll just presses your kidneys against the seat as the boost builds and gives you an almost weightless/rollercoaster feel in your gut...i literally feel like im driving a plane on take off. I guess this is what driving a TT is all about, damn this is fun

With 5500cmc, 12 cylinders and two turbochargers what did you expect?

It's nice to see the speed rise quickly and the fuel gauge dropping mm by mm

no two ECU "tunes" are going to produce the same numbers...but yes i have some dyno figures that are very similar to the numbers produced by RENNtech. My ECU ship is not "different" from RENNtechs other than the fact that I doubt just anyone can have AMG tune their ECU. I am the only 600 in the states that I am aware of that has this modification so the rarity factor for me is huge.

I think its kinda cool. I also have an E55 and Im a diehard AMG fan so this is obviously not something that I would ever ponder doing, although Im sure youre joking If anything I would de-badge it.
