The dealer says that my C63 have more power!
Hi guys this will be my first post here!
I have just bought a C63 AMG -2009 Performance packadge! I know that the car in stock have 457bhp but the dealer that i bought the car from says that my car have more power from the fabrik! I really dont belive him but he is reafaring to the TUV papper that the car have that says: AMG Software gem type 209 AMG, version T378KO!
As you can see in the picture!
Does anyone know what this meens and if the dealer have a point?

Really :-) That seems nice!
You are right it is a Official german tuv! The car is on its way to sweden now and i will have it in about 10days!
I have never drive a C63 so i wont be able to know the differense but does any one knows little more what this AMG tune is all about? Could any one that order a new C63 pick this option? And if yes why didt every one do it :-)
Then if the car have 507 bhp it meens that it have more power then a C63 whit P31.
Im a little confuseed now and i hope some one have a little more info about the AMG tune that my car seems to have!

Very easily checked. If the ECU has been opened. Its tuned.

This
Bring it to the Dyno. You most likely bought a used car that has a tune on it. If that is the case make sure it is documented at the dealer you bought it from otherwise they will say you did it and void your warranty if you bring it in for repairs.

All TUV is that its a certification of "kosherness". It's not AMG, affiliated with AMG, or sponsored or made by AMG.
http://sprinterstore.com/tuv_certification.htm
So just because its a TUV printed receipt, all its saying that the aftermarket tune complies to certain standards accepted and deemed whole buy the tuning industry.
Most likely you bought a car with just an aftermarket tune. Enjoy.

See Sig
and then you woke up....
Take a trip to a dyno shop. If you are showing higher than stock numbers pull out the ECU and see if its been opened. If it has open it up and hope it isnt covered in epoxy!! JK!!! LOL. If the ECU has been open take it to any tune shop and they can plug it in and read the file and it will have something in the code that states what tune it is.
