Engine components are exactly the same...just a remap of the ECU...best way to delimit the top speed is to get the performance package...raises the limiter to 186 from 155...

Hope that helps.

Go with Vadim @ VRP Tuning, he is working on an ECU package called VR530, which raises the power level of the C63 to 530 hp You can contact Vadim @ VRP by PM or through their website. Also, RennTech has an ECU tune to be released soon that will also raise the hp. This is only the beginning, after a few months, you'll see all the tuners coming out with high power mods for the 63 engine

Good luck......

I'm guessing he is from one of the countries in Europe. Check out the B-Class in the background.

Just a note on the VRP 530 PKG.

The VPR530 Package does not include the ECU upgrade. It does include Alternator and Water Pump UD Pulleys, VRP-Hi-Flow Air Filters , Phenolic Heat Spacers and a Relocate of the IAT sensor. A X-Pipe is optional for Resonator delete.

They will do an ECU upgrade though....

Hope this helps

Thats what I figured. In that case I would go with a Kleemann ECU. I had them do my C55 4 yrs ago and have been very impressed with the results.
Although, their price on the ECU upgrade has more than doubled since then.....

Looks like you caught the Kleemann bug too....(LOL)

and about this?

Until now no AMG drive train was so uncompromisingly developed to speed and response. But after a MKB conversion you can feel a big improvement: our MKB 63/8 reacts to the slightest movement of the accelerometer. He will zoom you to the desired speed in the same time as the wish comes to your mind. Gearbox and engine are melted together as an outstanding propulsion unit. Aggressive 567 hp mean riding on the edge for most Mercedes drivers, but for a few it means sheer pleasure.

The MKB technology tuning starts its first power stage with well known modification: an adjusted engine control unit converts together with an adapted exhaust manifold every AMG-Mercedes into a real sports car. The step-I-variant of the MKB 63/8 has got its heat at Nardo – 330,5 km/h in a E-class are a clear evidence for a successful MKB engine tuning. A second power stage is already on trial.

@porschelover.

I have a good story for you. A client form my MB dealer bought a C63 and went to AMG in Affalterbach to have his car derestricted in every possible way. After much whining they agreed to replace the C63 engine management with the S63 engine management freeing up the all the 525 horses.

It apparently took some convincing, but eventually they did it.

So if you live in Europe, it might be worthwhile to drive over there (make an apointment 1st) and have them do that to your car too:

AMG address

Oh BTW, MKB is a reputable company as well. Old AMG engeneers formed that company so they know what's what.

So a simple remap to an S63 will unleash the C63?? This is great news.

I don't know if such a remap is simple, but basically that seems to do the trick.
