I've eaten a 48oz porterhouse and 3 double cut lambchops in one sitting along with broc/baked pot, and dessert. Not sure if I could handle 72oz, but it would be seriously fun trying.

'09 C63 Performance Package - Steel Grey/Sahara Biege
I'm thinking just for the novelty bit of it, I may install electric cut-outs onto the back end of my x-pipe when I get it. Then I'm not hacking up the stock parts either.

Ford 4x4, daily
what would be different about oem tubes from any other s/s cylinder tubes of the same diameter? we are just talking about the tubes and not the manifolds or the cats/mufflers correct?

- 4th gear results tend to be higher than 5th gear results
You had done a great job in recapping the tuner results for the c63 ECU tunes. Have you by any chance been keeping track of recent results/pricing? Is this list still fairly accurate?

I will probably take a look at rounding up the feedback, updates, and new info from the past 3-4 months and updating this sometime in early March.

I here there is a new tunner comming out, you tell him the horsepower you want and that's what he prints on the dyno sheet. Also, to make pricing easy, it just has a flat fee of $3995.00 on any horsepower number.

I highly recommend going through an MB dealer if maintaining your warranty is important. It doesn't have to be your local dealer. Many MB dealerships that have a tuning/performance center have relationships with local MB dealers and they can help smooth out any warranty issues at the local dealership level. The MB dealerships with tuning/performance centers have access to all of the tuner products out there.
