Tuning Upgrade Options
I'm rocking my first MB right now--a C43 AMG sedan. I've been very stoked with it, a huge upgrade from my 528i. I don't know much about tuning or upgrades, but I do know I want to go faster! I'm hoping to spend $750 or less.
Any recommendations? Thank you!

Since it's your first Benz get ready for a sticker shock on the aftermarket on these cars. The tune box is the only option that you may be able to get under 1k. However the versions for the c63 have been very hit or miss. Check out the site in my signature, I know the guys have tested various tunes for the 450/43

Whatever you do, stay away from Weistec and Dime. You can't go wrong with Renntech but OE cost me the 1/3 of the price during their special
PS: If anyone sends you a PM you trying to recommend something or pretend they're hooking you up, don't fall for it like I did. There's a reason they're not posting publicly

Hey. I've had a terrific (and not too expensive) experience with OE Tuning. My car pulls like a freight train and it's very smooth, unlike the other tune I had before.

Yes, I also have downpipes and an Akra exhaust. My downpipes are from Weistec. I got them through a reseller for a decent price but I would suggest that you go a different route. They make the car sound a little too raspy and the fuel smell is a little annoying since they are fully catless.
See if you can get good deal on the Renntech downpipes. They still have cats. If I had to do it again, that's what I'd buy
