Impressive, I doubt my father's 560SEL still has that much power...probably in the low 100HPs...

Solid numbers from SEL, your dyno numbers are almost identical to my US 560, which an indicates how strong the Euro 500 M117 engines are.

Love the W212 BiTurbo..amazing. With a (simple) tune you will have higher dyno numbers than my fairly modded E55, which laid down 599wheel torque at the last dyno run and there is not much left I can do to this car, shows the potential of the new twin turbo platforms.

Not bad at all. That E63 arouses me.

That would be a massive understatement in my case at least.

Vdub,

Great numbers! I also like the in ground dyno and will give this shop a try. I have always been nervious about dyno run on a rack. I have seen Youtube videos where cars have fallen when something goes wrong.

OP: I am still curious the configuration of your 126 500 Euro.
Do you have Euro Logs? or Tri-Y?
Bone stock?

Thank you.
