C63 Black Series New Photos and Dyno Chart- Courtesy of European Auto Source (EAS)

I am fortunate enough to not only have this amazing car but also have a really great BMW tuner (parts and service too) close to me in Orange County. European Auto Source (EAS) well known for their BMW tuning, mods, and other parts is going to be getting in the Benz marketplace soon as well.

I went over there to get my C63 Black Series dyno'd and they not only did that but offered to take some pics too!! Thanks to Tom, Steve, Anthony and the whole team over there at EAS.

I was always a bit wary of getting a black car again after my CLS but I have to say I really enjoy the Obisidian Black color on this car. You gotta love the power it put down too. They had just dyno'd a non pp c63 which hit about 379 hp; mine was that much greater.

PS: I have no relationship with EAS other than being a very happy customer.












And the corrected dyno sheet....

Wow those are some great numbers for a stock BS with no tune....awesome. Those must be some very underated cars.

Now those are exhaust tips!! I love how they're integrated into the diffuser.

BTW, can you have someone rake the fukking leaves before the next photo shoot?

Thanks guys for the comps.... Anthony at EAS shot the car so fast Im pretty amazed.

As for the sidemarkers I had them removed and painted and stuffed the bulbs inside the fender so no one can see the glow.

Your BS looks so sinister and stealth....great stance

The wheels on that white coupe in the background would look pretty sick on your.......Nevermind

Yes those are great numbers for stock. Here are my dyno numbers with a Renntech tune and ROW air box.

Very nice....I'm biased of course. What kind of tint is that?

I knew these cars were underrated. That's about 550 at the crank.

Very nice, indeed. Thanks for sharing those awesome pics, Vic. And for the dyno + details.

Good stuff. Seriously good stuff.

(I finally got past the break-in on mine. Good times!)

Jim whats up man- I actually got it in July and just havent been doing much with it but finally figured some nicer shots would suffice.

And that was the corrected HP number--- I think uncorrected I was right at 470 hp.... Tint is 20% 3M.

Break in?? What are you talking about I think mine is strong because I drove it strong from day 0. But different people have views on break in procedures. I drove my new F10 M5 hard and it put up the best numbers too at EAS- 550 hp uncorrected on the same dyno or about 80 hp more. But that was peak hp and Id like to see an overlay to see how the power comes in during the basic rpm curves. My C63 feels very strong.

Agree Vic on the break in. I've had about 300 miles on mine, all in sport + or manual with non highway miles and driven to redline at least once each drive, warmed up of course. I had to park it for the winter and work reasons, but plan to have it on the dyno in the spring. The only thing I would avoid early on is the race launch and speeds over 100. But, it gets hard acceleration each time out.

Hey Vic,

Sorry for the poor choice of words. Its a bit embrassing since this is what I do for a living.

But what is the weight of the BS sans passenger and driver?

I dont know but ill find out since EAS has told me they can weigh the car.

I also will have the non PP C63 dyno sheet in a few for perspective albeit the dynos were done on different days.

Very nice Vic.
I have to agree with you 100% about the black.
a little leary at first, but I think it makes the car look absolutely mean.
we should meet up with Nex and take some pics of our 3 cars together.
might make a pretty cool photo shoot.

Absolutely, hit me up on PM and we will do this!! Maybe you can bring your cars to EAS and we do a dyno shoot out!!!


Here is my curve vs a non PP C63 car on the same dyno but different days:
