My new big C63BS project

I just joined the club and bought a red C63BS in Germany, and of course i straight away took her for a ride, its a great car better than i have thought, my friends at GAD-Motors have convinced me in doing a big project with her and with the experience i have with those guys i havent been let down, i am here to test drive my other C which i will post about after we take her to the autobahn with some videos hopefully. The C63BS project will be something else enjoy the pics

Very nice! You happen to know how much those seats cost? I couldn't get them with my U.S car, and asked the dealer, but remember some insane price.

Since we both now have CBS's and CLS's ---- tell me your stock vs stock thoughts? (we all know how modded your CLS is now)

I have to admit that as much as I enjoy a tuned M157 engine- the CBS is much more fun to drive. The exhaust alone is amazing and the backfires at high speed reductions is incredible.

If I had to get rid of a car- the CLS would go first.

I really enjoyed driving the C63BS although i only took her to the Autobahn for a flat out it does feel strong and i think its quicker than a stock CLS, and had fun driving her too, but with a tune only in the CLS i think the BS will have no chance what so ever in a straight line, plus its hard for me to tell bro all the cars i have driven after my CLS feel very slow, but this red devil will change everything once its ready
I am more excited into driving the Bullit on Friday, i havent published this but i have sent my car over to GAD Germany few months for some serious upgrades, 7 speed MCT, bigger turbos, bigger intercooler with some revised stuff aiming to 1000hp+ on the crank will post results and full story when ready.

Thanks for that, I thought they looked familiar. I was looking at the pole position anyhow, good to see that MB thought it was good enough.

I applaud you for spending this kind of money into cars. In the US, it would already be super expensive but wherever you are, it is probably double.
Please keep sharing so that us, peons, can learn from your experience .

It is going to be a monster definitely, gad already tuned M156 with bi-turbo for over 800+HP (i started a thread about it), no doubt with SLS internals it will be even more. Good luck and keep us updated.

I think the car will be Twin-supercharged with two centrifugal superchargers.

It will be MUCH cheaper for you to just buy the pole positions from a vendor, vice MB, I already asked months ago.

Because that is the mod offered by GAD motors for the 6.2 AMG engine. And Dbasons 55 is a Gad motors Customer and is not afraid of throwing big Bucks in a project.

I'm not sure. Just my guess

they have larger compressors that I will be going with, plus few interior and exterior mods I am promised some very high outputs somewhere in the 850+ range on the crank this will be an epic build hopefully

Does anyone know their rationale behind twin centrifugals? Seems leveraging a properly sized single turbo or a TT setup would be more efficient, twin centrifugals sounds insanely complex, and for what?
