That's pretty fast. Did you get any runs before the tune ?

I tired in stock long time ago but cudnt get below 4.24 secs somehow but also at that time i didn't turned off dsc and the run flat tires cudnt grip properly, so after tune i tried 2k rpm brake boost method someone mentioned in forum.
I think i need to learn how to launch properly 😂 so may be someone will give me more info about it here on forum.

Launching is tough and takes time to get it right which can easily improve your times by .5 -.75 second. A pro gets 3.8 seconds with a V8 X7 while rookie John Q X7 owner gets 5 seconds. No different than what happens at a drag strip. 2 drivers running the same vehicle get 2 totally different times.
I can remember guys with no experience bringing their 911 turbo or Z06 to the track expecting to see timeslips in high 10 low 11 range that barely got into the 12s. Lots more to straightline technique than some red neck smashing the gas to the floor as some guys believe.

I assume the power is night and day difference regardless of 0-60 time? Would you do it again (DME tune)?

Yeah there's a huge difference in power, car in general feels smooth compared to stock and the power comes instant the minute i floor the paddle even in comfort mode and in sports mode it goes nuts lol.

Sounds good Man.
1/8 or 1/4 mile trap would tell you much more if you have or can find those metrics in stock form for a comparisson.

Sounds as if you have realized a substantial increase in power with the full ecm flash tune. Good job, enjoy.
