C43
I've seen the installation in a C43 AMG and it was really simple. Just a few min. AMG C450 will be easy, too.
Only C63 is difficult. Just take a look at the RaceChip website:

Mercedes C63 AMG, note: “Setup on this car is difficult. What does this mean?”

Mercedes C43 AMG, no note

Sry, no installation video. However, you can see the sensor plugs in this video (only english subtitles)

Looks weak. There's hardly a difference under 100-120kmh and not only is that the area that's the most fun, but that's the area you're going to use regularly. My car would absolutely destroy a side by side speedo comparison even against the "chipped" one. Granted I do have a full tune plus downpipes but there's better piggybacks out there. I don't know this company myself, but I do know that BMS is very reputable around the car community (mostly for BMWs but that's neither here nor there). Check this thread out. He's running a bit more power than standard as his chip is tweaked but it's running neck and neck with full tuned cars. I'd probably get him on the top end over 120mph but seems like he'd be right there with me before that.

Haha relax, buddy. I'm glad you're having good results with your car (didn't read all your novel-esque posts but I'm sure if you're this worked up it must be working well), but I was only referring to the video in this thread. When the speedo's are next to each other, there's hardly much difference until it hits 100kmh's... Long story short; aren't these cars awesome!

I agree with you on both these items. ;-)

I've reworded my previous post ... actually wasn't trying to be aggressive, just informative.
