Check out the results of the first dyno day here -> https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...2010-c63s.html

Like last time, I'll be posting photos, dyno graphs and all of the results the evening after the event.

Note: I'll also have my AutoEnginuity OBD-II scanning software/laptop handy to check/clear codes and run diagnostics for those who need it.

Location:
Carb Connection
13611 NE 126th Pl. Suite 240
Kirkland, WA. 98034
(425) 820-1871

Type:
Dynojet Model 424xLC2.

Date:
Saturday, Feb 27th 2010

Start Time:
10:00am

Group Pricing:

3-5 Dyno Pulls for $75 (Reg. Price $145)

Participants so far:

1. avengerboater - 2010 C63 (Kleemann K1 Tune)
2. superlubricity - 2010 C63 (Kleemann K1 Tune and TBD Headers)
3. nrgy - 2008 C63 (MHP V3 Tune, Headers, High Flow Cats, Carbonio Intake)
4. Even Money - 2009 C63 (Kleemann K1 Tune)
5. Peter_02AMG - 2007 E63

It would be great if we could get to 10+ cars to attend. I've got a couple GT-R buddies on standby if we can't fill the place up with MBs.

Sign up here if you are interested!

The date, time and location are locked down.

Carb Conn can easily handle up to 18-20 cars.

Come on down.

Awesome. Can't wait to check out your CLS55 and the rest of the BC cars. Once you get a list of whose coming down let me know and I'll add them to the list.

AFR, yes. Not sure on Boost/PSI.

20-mins from Seattle, on the Eastside, just off of I-405 (North of Bellevue).

Nice! It would be interesting if I could get some LTs installed, retuned, and compare that to the shorties. That would be ideal! But nonetheless, I'm still feeling out my car...for now.

The LTs will make more power because they eliminate the primary cats. They will also be a lot louder, especially in the cabin.

The shorties I'm installing are direct replacements for the stock exhaust manifolds. I'll be retaining the stock cats and exhaust tone. We'll see what kind of gains I get. I'm hoping it's enough to get my torque over 400rw.

Ya, i'm either gonna get LTs or leave the manifolds stock, but I'm still on the fence about the loudness of the LTs. I like the fact that the LTs will yield more potential, but still...the sound. Maybe later. Haha. Which shorties are you trying out?

It will be good to check out nrgy's car at the dyno day. He's got the MHP LTs.

I'm working with a vendor on a newly released set for the 63. I'll get into more details once I get them and confirm fitment, etc.

That's awesome! Good luck!

Yea, I'm looking forward to hearing nrgy's car with his set up to see how I feel about the sound.

Looks like it's going to be a great turnout. I'm looking forward to this! It would be fun to have a GTR or two shop up regardless of the MB turnout

Regarding the LT's, I have to say the inside cabin noise at cruise and idle sounds stock. Cold starts are insane though especially inside the garage, and even just a slight blip of the throttle will deliver a nasty bark. I've mentioned this in previous posts, but it took me about 3 weeks to get over the intial shock after having them installed. Now I think it sounds perfect, and even wish it was a little louder at idle.

Hopefully jikjak can make it down as well. He came down last fall for our small drag racing meet, and his car sounds crazy too, not to mention he was the fastest of our group!

Did you get the catless LTs or the ones with cats?

It sure was fun coming down there last fall.
Can't wait to come down with JikJak again in Feb.
We're definitely looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing all your cars!

Nrgy: Maybe you should bring your camera again, and make more videos!

Anyways for sure JikJak and I will be showing up, and hopefully the weather would be great!
