CLS63 AMG vs a fully modded 300C SRT8 on 24s (vid)...
Ran a buddy of mine in Mexico a couple of night ago. He has a fully modded 300C SRT8 rated at 511 rwhp/ 498 rwtrq (with a 100 shot of NOS), here are the mods:

CMR Tune by RDP Steve, Inierta (STU) Heads & Special Cam, Ported & Coated Intake, GSM Phelonic Spacer, Magnaflow Exhaust, Gutted Cats, Mopar CAI. Zex kit 82177&82001, Nitrous Outlet Plate & Pressure gauge

My car is a stock CLS63 AMG with drop in K&N Filters and Resonator delete...

It was fun race. He had to use a 100 shot to walk me. At the end of the vid I start pulling on him, because he ran out of NOS ...

I have to add that he was also running on heavy 24s, and if he had lighter rims, Im sure he would have ran even faster, especially juicing...

Enjoy!

Nice work!

Wow...a tune, H/C/I, and exhaust only got the SRT-8 about 40-45 HP? Did he dyno with those 24's?

Well, I'm sure the 24's soaked up all kinds of power...but ~410-415 rwhp (without N2O) isn't all that impressive considering the work done to it. I don't really mean that as a slam to you or the SRT-8 owner...just figured that engine would respond better to mods...

I know what you mean. The 63 is faster if he doesn't juice, but then again, if he runs on stock rims, he could run a bit better...

His best 1/4 time is 11.9@121 on DRs...

His best on 24s is 12.05@117...

My best to date is 12.5@115...

+1. I'm wondering if the H/C was really done or are 24s that bad?

Tuned SRT-8s s/b 400rwhp - 410rwhp on 91oct.
H/C should bring them to the 440/450 range and that is on stock 20s.

Oh...that makes more sense all motor...except 511 w/ a 100 shot is...um...off a little. Either way 11.9 isn't slow by any means...but was that on spray or all motor?

Your 63 sounds nice. Wish my car shifted that fast.

Good race. However, shouldn't have been done on what looks like a somewhat busy freeway...My $0.02.

Congrats though!
