I feel sorry for the car on the left lane that lined up with the 63.

Thanks for the positive comments. Hartmut and the RENNtech team have the car running phenomenal. Has tons of power all over, including down low. I had to finesse the launch to get the 60' in the 1.7s on street tires. Pulls strong at any rpm and shifts amazing. I am used to the 5 speed in my CL65 which shifts much more subtle. This C63 still has some left on the table. I believe an 11.40 - 11.30 run is in the near future. Think the 11.57 run was captured on video. If so, video should be up soon on dragtimes.

Also, ran my CL65 last night. Went 10.98 @ 127. http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Be...lip-17713.html. Not bad for stock intercoolers and exhaust. Only mods RENNtech ECU and airbox.

You show a "Renntech Airbox" on the list of mods.
When will Renntech be offering their version of the airbox to the public? Some of us need all the help we can get. Now I'm in third place and I had losing! Come on and help a brother!

Help is on the way. Prototype is on car now. Production model should be ready very soon. As soon as I hear something, you'll be the first to know.

Thanks.

The tune is available. I am just the test pilot. Will get the particulars and dyno graph from Renntech and post. My recollection is +/- 460 hp to the wheels.

RennTech C63

Very impressive......

Is there any exhaust work done to the car yet or just ECU and airbox?

463rwhp with 20" Vellano's and in 80 degree weather oh, and of course that was after about 1 hour on the dyno hot lapping with the ECU installed only for 60 seconds ..

Well I forgot to tell Mo 544rwhp & 534tq with my little mod
And YES, I have graphs...

Nice times! Very impressive for an all motor car with just bolt-ons. How are the new Nitto Nt05 holding up to all that power? I see you pulled a 1.760ft so they must be pretty good. They are supposed to be the best street/track tire and inexpensive compared to other brands.

Congrats to Renntech.

Any chance they can make MIR on March 1st?

They ran .02 quicker than we did with headers and no cats vs our bone stock exhaust. We now have a similar system to theirs (retains stock catback) in place and would love to run heads up with another tuner.

Fikse,
You seem to be in the know with Renntech. Can you confirm or deny that their new headers are shortys or longtubes? I heard they were LTs but it says shortys on dragtimes...

Thank You
Tony

And I remember you almost two years ago, you just got the CL65 and
were complaining about the mid 11 second run when you were stock

Sounds like a call out to me.

For the record since there's been so much hostility on this site lately if Renntech chooses to call it that, it's of the friendly type. We'll be there for sure, it would be great if they could make the trip too. Good friendly competition improves the breed for us all.

It has shortys and still has cats.

Car is in my garage tonight. Just confirmed with a flash light.
