That is sweet. I like the Matte Finished gun-metal color. are those wheel centers all carbon or carbon overlay? I wish the C32/C55/C63 Wagens were available here in the States.

MIDO, car looks great. I'm not a huge fan of the JDM-style taillights, but style is quite subjective, and really think everything else ties together quite nicely.

Congrats... I'll add myself to those interested in seeing some dyno results, whenever available.

MIDO, any photos of engine work (mods?) with hood open??? I'd love to see what they did there? How does she feel after the drive. Do you think you got the 700-800 HP you were hoping for??

'08 C63 Estate
I just found this thread

Nice estate. The W203 brings a lot memories - I had a C270 CDI before the C63 and I drove about 200'000km with it in 3 years.

BTW This was the colour theme I wanted on my current car but changed my mind - matte grey on black wheels. I'm doing that next week to my honda bike.

Is the car painted or wrapped?

EDIT: Scratch that - I just read it was painted. Looks amazing

Thank you for the latest round of pics. Looks like a nice clean install.

So until we get some real dyno results how about just your impressions? How does the car feel driving now and the power difference?

The car moves like a rocket and the sound from the SC is just Amazing...The car sounds like a Stuka on the way down to bomb a target...Steady on road thanks to KW Stage 2, breaks like a MF thanks to Movit breaks....So overall I'm very happy...Still some small tweaking to do, and that is being taken care of now.

I'm back in Laos now and will be back home in August...Hopefully before then it will have a dyno done...As soon as I know, you guys will know!
I'll record some movie next time I'm home as well so you can here the SC....

It's the stock 3.2 L engine with a 2.7L SC..

Will not give any figures yet as we are still mapping the system and are not in the full potential yet. But I can tell you that the car moves like a rocket!
