Well, if you can get 210Nm more with a remap, guess the engine could pull a freight train, considering in standard tune it pulls 385Nm
From Wikipedia:
The AMG 3.6 M104 was rated at 276 horsepower (206 kW) at 5,750 rpm and 284 foot-pounds force (385 N·m) of torque at 4,000 rpm using the HFM engine management system

1995 C 36 AMG; 1992 W124 300E (M103 Ex Mosselman TT KIT) was 320hp @10psi now stock :(
I guess he meant to say 21Nm there :P Well since i replied here goes.

My car is reflashed as i have been told by three different sources so far including the guy who i took it to to reflash :P.

I have not driven a stock C36 for atleast some 10 years now, but for starters my car has no speed limiter, secondly it has serious midrange pull and low down torque. on G-tech i have consistently pulled 5.6 - 5.7 sec to 62MPH (not 60) and 1/4 mile: 14 @99mph. so yes, i would say it makes a difference.

but it all depends on what the reflash is, and if it is similar to what my car seems to have. you can try contacting superchips.co.uk, i know they are a trusted company and they will not put their reputation on the line for a cheap few USDs so if they claim some 16 HP increase then u will get it.

no i dont have the superchips chip, i am just saying that if u want to make sure u get some gain in hp for ur money go that way and ull be safe. Always remember most gain is not in the total hp gain but rather in the mid range where the car picks up much faster and its this gain that counts most.
