670 hp and 710 torque is a big improvement over the 600 and 553 torque stock. And to the wheels.
That's probably +20% hp and +45% torque

A few months ago I drove down to Houston and had the DME tune on my 2020 M8 Competition. I'm right at 800hp at the crank. The car is stupid fast.

[TRY AGN]

damn...on a mustang dynamic too? I recently did the dme e30 tune and my butt dyno tells me it's stupid fast but it's good to finally see some numbers! congrats.

[FBMWWINS]

Pretty good numbers but the M8 has the potential to easily surpass the 700 HP mark with hardly any mods. Whereas with several common hardware mods 800+ HP are possible. The M8 is crazy fast already but it calls like hell for a flash ECU tune!

[onebigv8]

Thanks every one for your feedback, indeed I am aware that the Car is well capable of more... Playing it safe for now.

The dyno numbers are great!

The problem is they don't mean much without a 'before' <-> 'after' comparison... or better yet, actual performance data before and after. Even 'after' performance numbers alone are useful because we have numerous stock measurements.

For me, I ran the 1/4 in 10.37s with my JB4. I think I made it into the 10.9s once stock but I didn't keep that.

Wrt/ 800 crank HP--how was that calculated? My guess is working backwards from wheel numbers with an approximate drivetrain loss.

Ya I did mention earlier that I did not dyno Before because Auto Talent did not have AWD Dyno.. I had to take it somewhere else.
As far as before an After there are few guys on this forum that showed numbers for "Bare Stock" before and After.
I think Mgod has a dyno from before even though his car is competition but at least we know where approximately the baseline is.

Thx. And understood.

Sadly, though, for dyno numbers to be useful: same day, same dyno, same car, same fuel. Outside of that, they're mostly just bragging rights.

For sure limeypride, I should have planned better... But finding some one in my area who did DME tune was challenging.. had to take the 2 hours drive..and to be honest I only did the Dyno runs for personal preferences only because DME never really shared a Dyno chart on their web

Are there anyone who tell me 60-130 mph times when his car was stock without any tune please?

[Savoy2001]

I looked on their site to see what an M8Competition runs obviously my car is a 23. They want $4200 for a tune? That’s like ridiculous honestly. I’ve never heard of a tune that much.

That includes sending the 2 DMEs to finland and the tune
So overall it is acceptable
If your car was unlocked (2020 model year) this will be much cheaper in the 2000s

I didn’t realize they needed to send the ecu out to do it. I wouldn’t do that anyway so moot point I guess.

[M6-Coupe]

Do you happen to have dyne result before tune?
670 hp at wheel means over 760 hp at Crank
If the under-rated stock is 617 and actual is 640-650 then you have about 17-18% improvement!

Car and driver has this report for 2020 M8 Competition Coupe.
There is no 60-130 but there is 0-60, 0-100, 0-150 and 0-170

... and that was in the UK. In the US we don't get the OPF which is at least another +40hp.
