Mercedes c63 amg 2012

Hey guys so i recently tuned my amg c63 2012 with a dme tune stage 2 which says adds 100 hp/tq, not sure exactly how much it really does, but i want to add armytrix downpipes. Can anyone answer if i need to retune it after adding the pipes, and also how much hp will i gain from the downpipes w the tune? Thanks.

The C63 does not use downpipes. I think you are referring to headers. With any bolt on you will ideally want to tune the car to achieve the maximum benefit from the mod. When you remove the stock headers and replace them with either longtube headers or aftermarket headers you are reducing the restriction in the exhaust system overall. Doing this without a tune can either cause your car to run lean or the engine will not run at its peak performance. I don't have any experiences with DME but, If you need a tune I would recommend going with the Eurocharged V7 dyno tune.

Adding aftermarket headers without a tune is risky in the long run. Not to mention the annoying check engine light that will keep popping up.

Whatever you do. Do not go with headers off of EBAY. I would go with MBH if you have the money or VRP If you are tight on cash.
