Powerchip's info on C63 ECU stock tune
Some valuable info I want to share, I got an eamil from Wayne and Travis of Powerchip 2 days ago stating that my C63 ECU has identical stock tune as an E63. That's pretty interesting consider MB states the C63 "only" produces 451bhp stock. Although it's very good news to us C63 owners/enthusiasts on this forum, but Wayne also said it's impossible to flash stock E63's tune onto any C63's ECU. On the other hand, my ECU was reflashed by Powerchip and I'm guessing the car is making around 500bhp @ the crank. Happy motoring.

Did you dyno your C63 before sending out the PCM? Can you provide Dynojet results after the flash is installed so we can all have a 3rd party perspective? Thanks & hopefully you'll have great results.

Not yet, I'm trying to get a spot at a shop I used for dyno sessions, but because it's so close to Englishtown and it's in the middle of race seasons, that place is booked until July. I'm going to try my luck with couple others I'd used in the past.
