Video: Tuned SL55 AMG vs BMW M6



Online!

The Mercedes is tuned with different wheel in on the compressor and revs a bit more than standard. Also if I should beleive a post from the owner the catalysts are gone and other filters. Had been dynoed to 560 HP according to one earlier post, but that should be taken with a grain of salt. But between 500-560 HP. So different compressor internals "so the compressor works a bit harder" and ECU that is. "When the speedometerneedle is in hte bottom at 330 km/h it is still accelerating . Have witnessed acceleration still at 310 km/h via a Garmin GPS."

2 persons in the M6 and one on the SL55 AMG.

The BMW M6 is standard. The BMW M6 has S6 shift program on, EDC damping is set to hardest, P500 Sport is activated and DSC (stability control) is off. The race takes place in a closed area not open for the public.

Notice how I let off the gas to give the SL55 AMG the jump on the first race. Races are up to 250-260 km/h.

Looks good. I think the SL would kill the M6 from a dig. That low end torque on the SL is as deadly from 0mph as the V-10 is from a higher speed roll.
