CLK63 Black Series
Great job Evosport!

A couple of weeks ago I dropped off my car at Evosport for some upgrades. The work included ECU tuning, suspension adjustments and installation of a new exhaust system. I just got my car back and couldn't be happier with the work they performed. I thought the car was fast before, but now, it is an onslaught of acceleration. The exhaust note changed quiet a bit - it sounds even better, which is hard to believe. Turn-in is more crisp and precise. Essentially the whole package just got better.
Thank you Simon and everyone at Evosport for all your hard work.

Nice. I really like the dead pedal. The car should have come that way.

Sounds like some great upgrades. What did you have done to the exhaust? It appears you are using the stock tips?

Congrats! Car looks bad @$$ in stock form now you just made it meaner! A few questions.

1. Did you do a before and after dyno? What was the result?
2. When you say suspension adjustment, did you just lower the car using the stock suspension or are you running H&R springs?
3. The exhaust system included what? Did you have your resonators deleted?

Again congrats on the mods!

Looks great! Did you go with long tube headers, shorties or stock? Cat or deleted? Evosport does great work, such great attention to detail. I would suggest them to anyone wanting to mod a high end, luxury performance car.

Thank you for your kind words. Didn't dyno the car but might do it when I bring it back for the rear brake upgrade. There is a noticeable difference the way it hangs on the throttle now. My guess is around 550hp. I wanted a street set up, so I kept the stock springs, lowered it and made the front end stiffer. I considered H&R springs and lowering it further, but that would make the car almost impossible to drive around town. I live by the beach, nothing but hills and high driveways. Since I wanted to keep the car "legal", I kept the stock exhaust manifold and primary cats. Deleted secondary cats and resonators.

Thank you Jim, your car was my inspiration. I live in CA and wanted to keep the primary cats, so no headers. Deleted secondary cats and resonators.
Like you said, Evosport really pays attention to detail. I highly recommend them.

I agree, like Porsche's and M's do.
