2014 C63 and 2004 C320
Introduction from Silicon Valley

Hi everyone,

Been silently reading in the background here.

I picked up a decently clean 2014 C63 with 44k miles from North Carolina on Ebay Motors this month.

Just tuned the engine with eurocharged's v7 tune this morning for 540HP---and it's insane.

Congrats - I'm new to these cars as well.

I was also thinking of getting the EC V7 tune. I daily my car and was wondering does the tune make the car difficult to drive in peak hour traffic due to the improved responsiveness i.e. when you are on/off the throttle?

My experience so far with 2 hours of driving it after installing the tune is that it actually makes it easier to coast with the added responsiveness in lower gears (no more occasional lurching as before) and acceleration comes quicker and more pronounced from 3rd to 4th gear. It definitely drives better and sounds meaner.

Nice pickup and welcome to MBWorld. The EC tune does add a nice performance increase for a canned street tune. Love mine! Enjoy your C63 and I think you are going to love it.

Do you also drive yours as a daily? If so no issues? Thinking of getting the Eurocharged V7 for my 2014 C63 coupe, which is my daily driver.

I don't daily drive mine as I am retired. It is also off the road for the winters as they suck for driving here. That said I have had no issues. I am currently running the V6 tune, which a lot of people criticize but works very well for me.
