C43 AMG Coupe
New C43 Owner(NJ) - Need advice!

Hey guys,

I just picked up a 2018 C43 Coupe white/crandberry red. What mods have you done so far that you're loving? Have any of you heard a resonator delete in-person - and will it cause power loss?

Here are some pics of it (dirty - had to drive it home post snowstorm)

Do you have the PE? If you do, do you think a resonator delete. Here is an older thread on this

Love that color combo! The most popular upgrades for the C43 are downpipes, a tune or both if you want to go right to stage 2. I'm currently AMR stage 1 on mine and I love it. Good luck and enjoy the beast!

I do have the PE. Are you saying to do both?

No, personally I think it is plenty loud enough with the PE valves open which you can control. I like the ability to quiet the car in certain situations. There are some YouTube videos which include resonator deletes although the full effect of the sound is hard to experience from a video.

If you live in Jersey, get your work done at Eurotech Motorsports in Mahwah, they're the best.

I have AWE Track exhaust, Weistec Downpipe, Renntech Blow off valves and a Stage 2 OE Tuning Tune. They also did my front grille, tints and other things.

Congrats, I am off exit 123 on GSP.

My cars are tuned by DME tuning next to Autocouture Motoring in Fair Lawn.

I run ECS 15mm spacers all around to get the wider stance

I do love the coupes....congrats on the purchase! If you live in Jersey, you should definitely drive up to AMR in CT. I got the ship in tune because I am not local, but I love it. The power increase is phenomenal and the car performs great. Just my two cents, good luck!
