i did my ECU with Tunerwerks in Toronto and currently i am running the Renntech program... but i would say it is not the best program the one that Tunerwerks make is the best i have used yet... it produces over 750hp and about 820TQ but unfortunatly i haven't done any dyno to proof that number... but it does boost much quicker and holds boost much better than the Renntech and Brabus program... and i doubt an SLR will "WALK" my car... stock maybe but not moded SL65

check vid above...
i know that SL65 wasnt exactly "stock" but as far as im concerned, the person seems to ONLY have their limiter removed...i think thats about it...
btw, nice SL65!
only a ECU upgrade and you got 750 whp and 820 wtq??!!

This guy would probably give most of the 65's the boot:

There is a local SLR that I have video racing a Z06 I raced. They ran multiple times, it is slower than the Z06 by a hair. I am as fast, if not a teeny bit faster than said Z06.
The SLR and SL65 I'd say were even, at best - giving the nod to the SL65 by order of shear torque.

an moded SL65 will slowly walk away from an SLR under any speed or condition period... and i am sure a SL600 moded is a little faster than an stock 65 cuz it produces much more agressive boost...

I think nothing can stop the 65 at the highway, especially you have the Tunerwerks program when I ride it last time! But traction really the mainly problem with it.
Alan, I've been waiting to run with your 65 for so looooong. Let do some runs with mine and the 997TT
when you back. And kill some M5s
