Just joined the forum as i have been following a number of threads with interest.

I am in the UK and have owned my 2010 C63 for just over a year,
Initially went down the Eurocharged route and then last month took a leap of faith and had the Weistec Stage 1 Supercharger fitted (1st in UK)

Next step is to upgrade the Suspension with possibly the KW with DDC set up.

Anyway just a quick hello.

Congrats on the SC. What are your new numbers?

average joe

Its running at 634bhp and 521 ft/ib of torque.

I am back in for some fine tuning on the rolling road in a couple of weeks. As UK fuel is 97-99 Octane so I am hoping we will see a slight increase with some fine tuning by Weistec and my tuner in the UK.

Welcome!
What a nice way to introduce yourself with this dyno sheet
What part of the UK are you? I used to live in glasgow back in 2005.

Congrats on not wasting any time and throwing the blower on.

634 at the wheels or 500? My car put down around 460 rwhp with a tune/2nd cat delete, was thinking of getting a S/C but not sure if it's worth the 50-60 HP gain? Anyways nice numbers either way

average joe

The 634 is at the flywheel.
I had the Eurocharged tune with the Carbinio intake and it pulled 534 bhp on the dyno (fly) prior to the Weistec install.
The dyno i used pre supercharger install it only pulled 500 (so is the dyno running low....possibly).
Anyway as others with the SC on will know the difference the the SC on is just immense, and changes the car dramatically....instant torque!!!

Could be stage 2 next but just worried that it will be to loud with the Long tube headers.

average joe

Thanks for the welcome.
I am based in the Newcastle area so some nice roads to play in around Northumberland

Yeah but when compared to the US fuel it doesn't work like that. 95 in Europe is the 91 in the USA and your 97-99(Euro Super) is the 93 oct american fuel

average joe

My mistake
Just read this "The Octane number quoted on the pump (PON or Pump Octane Number) in the USA and Canada is an average of RON & MON (RON + MON / 2.) So if you are comparing UK & USA fuel, you typically need to add 5-6 points to a USA Octane number to get the EU equivalent. "

Its the first in the UK with the Weistec SC install so will be back on rolling road in Feb with all diagnostics sent to Weistec to ensure everything is as it should be.

Being honest i cant see how any more power could be put down on the road bearing in mind the UK is generally wet for most of the year.......but it keeps it intresting.

CarHopper

Out of curiosity, why not throw on the headers and little bits to go stg 2? I mean, it would be much louder but you'd see another huge gain. Could make those wet days even more interesting.

Either way, sweet intro. PICS!

average joe

ha Ha yeah I am very tempted.

The Long tube Headers and a valved exhaust could be on the horizon.
If i go stage 2 then i think the Weistec head bolts and valve buckets will be getting done along with the Gearbox TCU re-flash.

I have a Quaife ATB LSD fitted which helps with traction a bit but its still just pure comedy in the wet.

CarHopper

Sounds like a pretty awesome setup especially with that LSD. I think that people are pretty harsh on the OEM headbolts. Then again, when there is an issue it becomes a PITA. I suppose making all that power having that little extra peace of mind wouldn't hurt. Not to mention I don't think you could show up at your dealer with a supercharger and play the "I thought it was stock" stupid card haha.

Do you guys have any harsh emissions regulations over there? Catless etc?

average joe

We are not too bad.....You are supposed to have Cats fitted. However, If you have a good garage that understand and appreciate tuning then the car will still pass its MOT (yearly test in UK).
If you went to a dealer then they would fail the car and say you need cats fitted to pass the test.

You cant get stopped and tested roadside to see if you have removed the Cats.

CarHopper

Ah yea, so pretty much the exact same thing as NY. Just need a tune to avoid CEL's for cats and a shop that will overlook you not having physical cats in place.

Anywho, congrats on the S/C.
