I'm a NEWB at mods!!

Hey, so i ordered my c63 this week

i'm not really interested in doing any major work to it, as its a 2 year lease...and im not gonna track the car or whatever

i was however interested in maybe making it already sound/perform a tiny bit better than it already does

i dont wanna change exhaust , or do anything engine wise...but i was thinking maybe simple things like a diff air filter or something along those lines would maybe make it sound even meaner

anyone have any suggestions??

Last emperor = last of its kind

Reason:
1) Refuses to change even when previously advised by population
2) Clings to the past - doesn't STFF
3) etc

A nice wax job will greatly influence the lessening of drag as you move through the air!

Giving the car the wax job will eliminate the time you have available to continually ask inane questions!

and add about $40k


i was searching other threads and found a great free mod


removing the charcoal air filters on the 63 engines supposedly give you an extra 10-15 horses and a meaner throatier sound


come to think of it, i think i saw you posting in some of the threads i read
perhaps about the charcoal filters, and breaking the car in

Check with Vadim @ VRP. They offer an ECU and Exhaust manifold upgrade that will boost power into the 500 range for about $2K I think. Both are completely removable back to stock easily and can be resold for at least half what you paid for.
