I would love to but in this country you can get in some very serious trouble with the law if you post such videos on the net. Some people have ended up in jail

I clocked your 0-60 mph at 5.7 seconds but it seems like you didn't get a good launch. Stock C43 should be about 5.8-5.9 seconds
I'll post one

It's weird I feel like the tranny is locking up gears "stronger" and quicker than mine. Mine is definitely smoother at shifting points. Did you do anything special to the transmission ?

My torque app has told me anywhere from 5.6 (ESP off) to 7.2(ESP on). Wildly inaccurate reading, if you ask me. I just got a Galaxy Note 2 that shoots great video. I'll try again just shooting video and posting like Zayed
Holy hell if I could get my hands on a healthy 5.4l with kleeman cams and headers too...

Made "2" videos, one with little launch playing, the other with (ESP-off).....
I think no changes with a tenth seconds(according to the Jason’s 503C43 ////AMG mentioned above).....

I switched my tranny to the one from (S/SL600/65 Bi-Turbo/Maybach 57S/62S),, which is "722.649 A900Nm",
Its strongly shifting, with no lazy point between the changing shifts, didn’t expect how that ACTS....:

This tranny valve body comes with a "blue top solenoids", i switched them to the brownies, and put it back,, the internal clutches is soo strong, that’s why the shift points is fast & firm,,
I swapped the Engine to 5.4 with Kleemann Cams & Headers "4" years ago, but unfortunate i didn’t tune my ECU yet....

It's going to be a beast with the tune. Maybe a crank or UD pulley?

cause i raced a "W203 C55" two times from a stand still, i beat him easily,
as you know; "W203 C55" runs from "0 to 62" in "4.9", which has a "3.06" diff., also the C32 can reach "0 to 62" in "5.2"....!!??
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_C-Class#AMG
The big ques. twisting in my mind,, is the scale reads properly.....!?!?,
cause the original C55 AMG equipped with "2.82" diff., and also it comes with a "2" different part #s for the (rear speed sensors),,
Any ideas......??!!

so many miles on this engine, a front tire out of balance, and low coolant, don't know why I bothered. Oh well. Still had trouble hooking up with brand new goodyear eagle f1's. I tried a second time but gave up due to so much wheel spin.

I'm certain I have not yet learned how to launch it properly. There's no way a stock C43 with so many miles, heavy oversized 2 piece 18" rims should have so much trouble hooking up on launch. What I do is just hold the brakes, press in about 1/5 throttle, and floor the throttle and release the brake at the same time. Suggestions??

- camber = lesser footprint on the deck and not good for traction but great for cornering
+ camber = something is wrong....
