You’re so clueless about the car I’m surprised you can turn it on. You couldn’t even install a JB4 on your own. Getting info from you would be as good as making **** up myself.
JB4 map6, e30 fuel at 1000ft above sea level, ambient temp was 38F. K&N drop in filters, done on the street w 4 all season tires, stock 19 inch wheels.

****ty ones too Still, some cars run performance summer tires w lighter wheels, makes a difference for sure. Either way, I love my C43 w JB4 on it, I gaped a W204 C63 last night and did a celebratory drift in the parking lot, those all seasons throw some major smoke LOL

I have been looking at the C450. In the spring, their shoul dbe some good values, which will leave some headroom in the budget for some mod's.
A 'canned' tunning, and and new intake system, and see what I gain. I like the trim, and being in Canada, you cann't open these cars up, well not past 150KPH, if you want to keep your car and license.
We can speed up to the speed limit plus 20 extra kms/ph on the highways.
I have been handing down my cars to my daughter. We ahve been going to the local tracks and having fun. Some minor mods... So she's inline for my 2011 C300, she is driving my 09 C300...
She will be droolling for the C450 hand down... :-)
The C450 seem like the best value, for the value oriented consumer.
Just curious has anyone here dragged on a street a C63 ? Was the C43 faster ? What was the conditions like? Although the C63 does a 0-60 in 3.9s its almost impossible to achieve that. Which makes me wonder what times do they get in every day road conditions?
Has anyone taken a stock 2019 C43 to quarter mile?
'19s have only been getting delivered for a few weeks, and it's winter for the vast majority of markets. I'd guess you'll be waiting a 4-5 months for an answer on this...

Just curious. I have a 2018 c43 with 19" summer tires, k&n air filters and JB1. Tried Maps1,2 and 6. Using octane booster and 93 Octane. Been going to PBI since Oct. best time is 12.04 with JB1 Map 2. Has anyone noticed that the additional traction that the spray they apply hurts our et's? 60 ft times with Draggy are in the 1.7 range but at the track hard to get below 1.9.
Car: 2018 C43 Coupe
Wheel/Tire: Custom forged on stock Continental tires (19")
Tune: Stage 2 ECU (German canned tune. 18Bora is right about these ECU tunes )
Fuel: 93oct
Temp: 20C/68F
Humidity: 80%
DA: 1880 ft
Hi all. Merry Christmas. I broke into my personal Christmas present early today on Christmas Eve.
Only able to stay in my village. All 25 and some 35 mph roads. So I recorded 2 0-60 and 1/8 mi times:
Run. #1. #2
0-60. 4.23 4.03
1/8 mi. 8.07 7.88
Temp is 45. Dry low humidity. Thrilled with these times. Set in Sport Plus. Second run I power braked it.
Car is stock mechanically with a Stage 1 ECU tune installed. Thank you Matt!

Most of these results are far from "official" and anything posted that isn't an actual drag slip take with a grain of salt. That being said others have achieved mid to low 1.7's at that same track with PS4S's and the like.

Dragy is usually accurate down to .1 sec in the quarter mile and + or - 3 mph on the trap speed.
