C63 modding

1 According to this tuner: http://www.mkb-tuning.de/content/en/...ews.php#news_1 , you can get 70hp extra out of the new C63 with only an ECU-reprogram? They got 521hp with only stating that they rewrote the engine management.

"Complete modified engine control software is flashed into the standard ecu-unit by MKB. The optimized ignition and injection mapping of MKB pushes the C- and CLK-class AMG models already over 500 HP."

2 VÄTH V63RS Clubsport - 585hp with also only ECU flash, and a complete exhaust system... http://www.autoblog.nl/archive/2008/...amg-met-585-pk (Dutch link)


I wonder what a company like Renntech can do with the car if these small enhancements get you an extra 130hp.... Dyno sheets please.

dkp993 is infamous around these parts
Probably not far off as we know they "detuned" the 6.2 when they put it in the C.

The AMG V8 is detuned for the C-class, like dkp993 said.
Full power, like in the CLK Black Series, if I remember correctly it is rated at 507.
This engine can make quite some power, as I was browsing though Evosport's site, I fell upon their CLK63 BS, pretty modified and reaching 598 crank hp! Sounds beastly as well.
