Alright guys.....I can't pick up my jaw, wipe the grin off my face, or believe that what I now have in my garage is real.
Let me preface the below with some HIGHLY deserved credit....Jerry @ Eurocharged has been taking incredible care of me for years, and I want to thank him for his attention to detail, as well as professionalism in all that he does. Furthermore, having a company that you can rely on to tinker with such a car is paramount and hard to find. These guys have proven to me (and I think it's safe to say) countless others that they are a responsible group of individuals that know how to balance risk with reward. Kudos to you all and may the universe return the positivity that you have created.
Now, on to the tune.
Guys, I'm honestly shocked...I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I have driven some of the worlds finest examples of sports cars and the transformation here is truly hard to believe...and this is only after a handful of miles.
There's another review somewhere on the forum here where a guy go to drive Jerry's car etc and when I read it I was obviously thrilled with the implications, but was a little "yeah right" about the gravity of the change.
Let me tell you that this guy was right, and also vastly under-crediting the work that these guys have done to transform the dynamics of this engine, and therefore car.
I can't even truly begin to articulate how viceral the driving experience now is. I'm talking fighting for traction in both 3rd and 4th gear with 90% throttle....This truly is the first thing I have driven since the SL65 Black Series which might legitimately touch the level of torque it produced.
Seriously the stock C63S will not be able to touch this in any regard....there is 0 lag, the car pulls as hard with 1/2 throttle now as the original did with almost full throttle - it's that big of a change.
From a drivability point of view nothing has been lost to performance..everything is still silky smooth, the transmission is much more responsive from a dig and doesn't have as much "float" as the stock settings do. The throttle is exponentially more responsive.
Will be going to the track weather permitting this coming wednesday and will post time slips as a baseline.
Gotta go put the kid down now so I can log a few more miles before bed.
Honestly, I would pay $5K for what I just got, the change is that monumental.
No filters, no BS, just the plain reality.
Can't wait for you all to experience the same thing.
No joke, game changer.
BTW I would do 5X the work that was done above to get this tune done now that I know what the end result is....C300 VS C63 difference

PS - really cool to hear about your impressions of the tune. very interested in et's/mph from this tune. and of course drivability, and adaptations..... over the long haul.

Me too. Traction seems like it'll be MORE of an issue than it already is stock
Jp was one of the very few brave owners to track and report his c63s results
Kudos to all you great members for being so helpful to this online community
