Hahaha thanx guys!
I'm trying to stay faaar away from that terrible modding bug!
Here in SA they can be very strict when it comes to mods on the car.
And yeah bud, I'm from Pinetown but live up in JHB now.

Small update:
So I put the car on a dyno last night, just to get some base numbers.
Had standard pump fuel (which in South Africa is terrible), and was more than happy with the numbers!
The car made 364whp and 454wnm, alot more than was expected from me and fellow AMG owners!
Here is the graph:
And here is a video of it:

Just a small update...
I haven't done any modifications as yet!
However, I did take the car to the coast and decided to do a dyno run to see what it was making.
Was pleasantly surprised to see a figure of 437whp!!
Still not sure if the car has a tune or not, but I'm really happy with this P31 of mine!
Sadly no torque figure or graph tho

Either way a P31 tuned vs P31 does not show big difference in output power. Looks like you have a strong car but what was your baseline if any?
Edit: I just scrolled up a few threads and you already dynoed the car at 364 whp!!!?? So I don't understand your comments about putting down 437whp without any mods.
Am I missing something?

Yeah previously dyno'd at a much higher altitude of 5577ft above sea level!
So when I went down to the coast, wanted to see what the difference was (more or less), and it was huge!

Your father deserves a medal. Make sure you take care of him and treat him well. He deserves it, regardless of whether he got you a c63 or not.
Best of luck to both of you. Give him a good hug from us fellow c63 owners and may you both enjoy the car in good health and safety.

We are 2200 feet above sea level in Edmonton and I bet it kills the power big time. At 5K ft plus 367whp is still amazing I think. I doubt my car would be anywhere close to that here, although never had a dyno done.

I try my hardest to show him the most amount of respect etc.@Papashango: Altitude really does kill the power a lot! It would be interesting to see what others can do at altitude as well
