So i bought my 2014 c63 last sunday. during the week i picked up some bc racing coilovers (temporary), vorsteiner ff-101, jl motoring lip + diffuser + trunk spoiler and boca facelift bumper vents (all sitting at EAS getting installed monday)

going to go with benzworks headers and an oe tune at the end of this month. was wondering what else i can do performance wise to get some more power out of the monstrous v8.

already did the charcoal delete last week

will appreciate any help!

Congrats on the pickup,

Headers and a tune are the main performance upgrades to be had. Airboxes don't seem to be worth the entry fee for the gains. Other than supercharging it, high flow air filters and if you don't have an LSD, certainly get one.

I think you will be happy with the performance of your tune/ header combo It really unleashes the beast.

pjdizzle94

Thanks man. I have LSD already luckily. What air filters do you recommend? Debating on either short tube or Long tube. I know long tube gets a lot more power than short but it's also loud as hell

So being in Cali... I'd recommend leaving the primary cats. Car already has plenty of pep and will have more than enough with a tune.

Swapping headers every time you need an inspection will get old. I used to do this and just got tired of it to be honest.

Headers + intake + tune is the norm for making power. If you are worried about drag times then focus on weight reduction after that. Otherwise I'd just leave it there unless you wanted to drop the coin for a supercharger.

Sweet car though and happy modding!

Buy duplicates of some of those parts and send them to my house. Then we'll be internet bros!

did you end up selling your headers or keeping them on? i was looking at short tube headers just for that purpose. not sure what to do. want the power of long tube :/

Wide body. Don't stop until your broke.

Trust me, it's worth it. Post pics along the way so I can live vicariously through your wallet.

Ditto. Damn, you just got it and have already gone ballistic! Kudos and enjoy

Yes, go STAGE 3. Seriously, the car looks beautiful though.

pjdizzle94

thanks really appreciate it. love your wheels man. beautiful hahaha. gonna hold off on the supercharger... waiting to see what ess tuning does with their kit

CarHopper

I never had headers and this is one of the reasons. Shorty's (IMO) are a bit of a waste and if you are going to do headers do LTH.

I'd just leave it alone, go with a tune and enjoy the car while you can. It's plenty quick for the street.

Congratulations on the new beautiful car and happy modding.

Delete your secondary Cats for extra power. Add a solid cat back system to tame the sound of the LTH's. Don't bother with shorties.

Very nice C63!
