Need some advise to hit the 500hp on my c63

Hello to everyone, I recently realize that I had the wrong car and changed my c350-08 for a new c63-09. Now I want a little bit of more power without affecting my warranty. Any advise? The ECU upgrade could be an option? is there an add-on to factory ECU or I have to send out mine for programing? Thanks

You have to send out u ecu that's the easy way to get 500+

ECU gets your HP even higher than the higher class 63 models.

Bang for the buck it's hard to beat Powerchip.

Are any of the others under $2000? I dunno.

Yeah, but that's not their "full" tune, is it?

Yes, full tune.

63-K1: A sophisticated new ECU software. Up to 535 HP and 650 Nm (481 lb-ft) of torque.
63-K2: K1 + a set of high flow exhaust manifolds and downpipes with steel sport catalysts. Up to 560 HP and 700Nm (519lb-ft) of torque.


K1 is $1500 if I'm not mistaken. I'm not sure about the K2 package but I belive it's in the $4k-5k range.


edit- here's a thread about the tune

I am in Puerto Rico, thanks all for replying my question. I am between Kleeman, Evosport and Renntech, still doing some research
