Let's keep it on topic please, guys...

That AMS tune is phenomenal. Did Chris tune it? Right now, the car/ECU needs to be sent to AMS for the tune, right?

70 WHP is normal for C63's

It's the AFR of 12. My RENNtech custom dyno-tune is ruler-flat between 11.8-12, tuned that way to provide a high margin of safety for WOT use in desert summer conditions on 91 octane. Based on my deltas I figure that I'm down as much as 15 RWHP vs. what it WOULD dyno at say, a 13.2 AFR.

You guys have an authorized dealer/tuner in the sf bay area? I'm not too keen on sending my ecu out. Much rather take my car to a local tuner.

I'd also like to know 2012 amg package gains.

Can U post graph for a p31 c 63 on thread? So we can be better informed and others can join in, for pros and cons or suggestions?

The sheet says the tune is for 93 oct. I don't think OP mentioned it in the beginning. Would going from 91 to 93 result in a jump of 20-30 whp depending on conditions?

I twice got ~ 18WHP in the M5 switching from a 91 to 94 octane tune...same dyno, similar conditions, WOT runs to adjust for the difference in gas octane rating etc.
