What exactly do you mean by "tuning"?

[Jason]

had a brabus performance kit fitted to my c350.... wow!! 700nm or torque feels very nice...lol

:yikes:

What are the figures then pal - from what to what ?

[talkingcars]

More details of the car would help, I guess it's German by the name of the kit.

[Jason]

the car is a merc c350 cdi...originally it 265bhp( although quite a few tested come out between 265-275 bhp...its now 313-20ish plus gone from 620nm of torque upto around the 690-700nm.....its an auto so in E(mode) it just uprates the torque, in S and paddles shift it gives you full power and torque.....from 2000rpm in second in just fcuks off 1st is waste of time as it just spins wheels second and third does aswell if dampish...mightyly impressed...not sure about the tyre bill yet though ...lol

[Jason]

Had a go against a GTR today.. My car held its own...now over the moon with the extra performance....lol

[Dan1971]

Sounds a great car - good for you.

My 335 with 350 pony's and 700 torques is equally just silly fast really the torque is something else

An equally great car 335d...that was car I was deciding between with mine, just got much better deal on the Merc as wife knew the dealer principle at Merc garage so went with that one...wasn't sure when got it done if I would notice a huge difference...how wrong I was...lol..yeh torque is immense no really am torn with getting a c63 507 as I don't there is a huge amount in it now...only thing is I don't have a rather aggressive sounding v8 to listen too...lol

Try the 507, handling and power delivery will make your eyes bleed
I had a couple of Merc diesels and no doubt they are fast and capable but once you have actually driven the V8 AMG you will soon understand.
The 507 has a massive power band and puts it's power down so well, mid range torque in real world side by side with a C350 is night and day.
Look up Rebellion they tuned a C350 with outstanding results and also ran it at the VMAX event but it showed the real world performance compared to C63's.
I would have another Merc diesel any day as they are perfect for every day but I'm going thorough the AMG phase right now :)

I know what you mean Eddie...I borrowed a 507 for the weekend whilst they serviced my(very kind of them..lol)..and yes aggressive and fast are two words that spring to mind..the launch control was something else..I have a vid on my phone which I'll put up if I can work it out..think I will keep mine for another 12 months then the 507 will have come down in price as new c63 comes out end of the year..plus I need some time to save for the fuel budget...����

That's funny :)
Guy in the UK just had a super charger installed on his C63, as if they need it lol
An awful lot of car for the money and still very tunable at 507 bhp, easy 50+ hp to be had.

[Jason]

Lol..a supercharged one..oh my!..great car the 507..got to get saving now only got 12months I do need one in my life..😄
