Question for anyone who can help
Hi, I was looking up 0-60 times out of curiousity because my CMS ALL4 feels like it pulls pretty hard to me, but I'm finding out I'm nowhere near the quoted 0-60 times I should be, like it takes 10 seconds. I live up in northern Colorado so I'm wondering if 5000 ft elevation is the root cause? My car does have a catless DP and intake without a tune but I don't think it would make the car that much slower, so it would have to be elevation right? Would love to hear your guys' thoughts.
Happy motoring!

Altitude is typically 6000ft, sometimes 5000 depending on where I am in Colorado. Measuring using the Torque app via Bluetooth adapter, but have also stopwatched it

What wheels are you running and can you see your boost levels?

It's the altitude. I'm at 6,500 ft (NM) and wife has a '13 coupe, no turbo. It's a dog. My S is fast but it's a twin turbo. Even with the turbo, it isn't as quick as it is at lower altitudes. Try your times on the east side of Denver, or better yet Kansas. In Florida or Galveston they scream at sea level. Less O2, less speed. That is why 91 octane is the highest octane at elevations, higher octane does nothing at high altitudes. Just be thankful you have a turbo.
PS The Eventuri intake DOES make a difference on the S.
