Stay with the C63 for a little bit. It is too soon to just swap cars just because another car is faster. Ther is always a compromise.

a quarter mile at a time
Damn nice!
What I like is that there's a significant improvement in the onset of torque build-up. It starts sooner and doesn't plateau at 2,500rpm. Instead, it continues to climb as you get up to 3,000rpm before it begins to plateau. But at this point, you're already in the 600+ lb-ft range.
Other than that, the before and after curves follow a similar path. Your Eurorev/Singh tune just raises the line higher on the graph. A very good thing.
I've learned at least two things from your dyno and tune:
1) During spirited driving, it's probably best to shift at 5,000rpm or shortly after that, and,
2) The M157 motor has lots more potential than Mercedes is leading everyone to believe....and I love that.
Great job and thanks for sharing.

So if it's what you want / need in almost all facets, get it. If not, you can keep milking the C63 for more speed, if not a whole lot more raw power (read: tires, lightweight wheels, exhaust, micro battery, etc.).

Don't think my friend wants to run after I posted the tuned! Let me know if you or your friend want to meet up one day and compare. You could even drive as I have too many points!
