Has anyone completed 1000 miles break in on an AMG car in the US

Curious if anyone has completed the 1000 miles break-in on an AMG car in the US, and pushed the car to max power.

Looking to see if US cars have the same max power in the instrument display as the Chinese cars @ 416hp or 400hp ?

I have a long way to go on my car, had for a month and only have 200 miles on it.....
 
I'll probably get it to 1000 miles this month after a few trips to Vegas. AMG Emira in US is 400hp. Does it display in instrument panel?
 
Yes, both US and Chinese cars are marketed as 400hp, however Chinese owners are have been showing video clips of Emira's with power meter showing 416hp. The cars internal HP meter can be displayed on the infotainment screen and selected to display on the dash.
 
Just hit 1000+ miles on my i4. Display topped out at 423bp. I gotta say it feels like it. That was in sport mode in auto, on ramp onto the freeway.

Nice run ! Think I posted in another thread that the AMG engines would have to be pushing more than 400hp to be under 3.5s to 60mph. Your video helps make that claim, 423hp wow.
Torque maxed out around 499nM or ~368 ft-lbs. Curious what was the approximate outside temp?
We should probably start a new thread with your video, for others to also share their metrics.
 
It was ~ 45-50deg F. Does anyone know how Lotus calculates bhp and nM that's shown in the display? Wondering if anyone has done a dyno w/V6 and compared.

It's all calculated from data from various sensors. Mass Airflow, Injector rate, boost, timing, etc. It's not a dyno output figure.

Yes, would be nice to have a bench mark from the V6 drivers.

Thanks for temp number, boosted cars are going to make more power with cooler temps.
