So I guess I'm confused at just what the hp/torque increase would be on my 05 XF SRT6. Unless I'm reading this graph completly wrong and my hp figures for the M/B AMG are incorrect, I cannot tell exactly what your tuning will do for my car. Could you please demistify this for me? Thanks!
the graph shows the power of the car to the wheels, you are quoting power to the crank of the engine. Every car has what is called drivetrain loss, ie the power it takes to turn the wheels etc.
As you can see on the graph the actual hp of the car is lower then 348 and makes a nice gain with the software.
The amg engines are also hand built and can vary 10-15hp. The end gain is the same though. You always want to look at the gain or delta over the numbers. Cars can also read different on different dynos.
Make sense?
