M6 CP with BMS stage 1 Vbox results

gmd2003 · 05-19-2014, 09:27 PM

I finally gave in and installed the BMS stage 1 at the default settings and 93 octane. I decided to run it in a positive DA of +1300 feet and 0 slope to see the gains vs my DP setup . It was very hard to put the power down with DSC off in 1st and 2nd , comfort suspension mode so my 0-60 time was much worse than before 4.3 vs 3.8 . Despite that the results are still pretty stout especially the half mile . Essentially in the same conditions and 0 slope my GPS speed was 2 mph faster with the piggyback despite traction issues .

I'm glad you came around. 2mph is a pretty stout increase. Hopefully with traction and better conditions you can break 130mph.

Did you check 100-200km time?

Default setting is off I believe. So you did not adjust settings to 3 and 1.

I adjusted the settings in the new firmware for the S63 TU default values per the instructions .

Nope I'm in the US we use mph over here

, the 60-130 mph though in + 1300 density altitude and no downslope on the run was 7.9 seconds . 100-200km/hr is 62-124 mph , so given how much more time it takes to go 120-130 mph and the extra 2mph on the front end the difference is usually well over 1 second . So the 100-200 km/hr would def be in the 6 second range .
