Wanted to share a few pictures of my newly acquired 2012 E63 in Matte White. Let me tell you this car is not for the faint of heart when it comes to paint care, you cannot do ANYTHING to it without voiding the warranty. But it looks really good for 5 minutes after washing LOL.

My car was featured in emercedes benz recently here before we began modification. I've heard that the blow off valves don't fully open for 1200 miles so I made sure to get 1500 on it before we began:

I still love the color I think it brings out the lines in the W212 Chassis, MHO anyway.









My car now has the full MHP Stage 2 package including their ECU tuning and full 3" exhaust. We have a baseline dyno of 467rwhp-476rwhp and will go back soon to the same dyno, then to the track to test the car.

You can see in the video below in my signature (homeless guy is hilarious, 4 blow bys at 130-150 and not even a glance up) even with Pano (+150lbs) and (250lbs +328lbs in my car in driver and passenger) it took the S2+ car (215lb + 240lb driver and passenger) until 3rd gear to begin to reel me in then again I got the jump that time too

Anyway I was very pleased with the service and product and want to thank Andy for his help in making my car a true beast. The noise from the exhaust is the way the car should have come from the factory. I've heard some of their longtube header C63s and they are a bit loud for me, the E63 version is dead on. A bit more V8 rumble, tons and I mean tons more turbo (you hear spooling even at part throttle I love it!!), and just the nasty sound of lots of air being moved through a hitech twin turbo V8 engine.

This is the exhaust I'm currently running with 200 cell per inch cats.



Will post more pics soon as well as some updates from the dyno and track if I can ever find the time.

Have a great night guys!

OH yeah, thanks to my boy Bryce at Wheel Medic for the 20" wheels and tires. Not even sure what brand they are, I leave my wheel decisions up to him, but I like them. Car is also lowered with an Eibach lowering kit.

interesting.....so the stock amg exhaust in not mandrel bent...that sucks

you need some more vids, to give us a better idea of sound and speed

benzp_714

No its far from mandrel bent. It's dented, crimped, and changes shape from round to oval it also has more restrictive cats and is smaller in diameter 2.75" in most places to a full 3" now, and didn't have an X pipe. Was really not impressed for a relatively expensive and sporty luxury sedan. I also think the door trim around the seats controls is unbefitting an E63 but thats another story.

I'll work on video and new pics with the exhaust installed along with some CF goodies I have on the way.

Here's a good video although hearing it in person it doesn't do it justice of the same Race exhaust I have on my 2012 E63


Under load accelerating from a light even at 1200-1500rpm the spool is so sweet. Amazing a turbocharged car may replace my Mas GT as my favorite sounding engine. Technology is a great thing.

A few pics of some of my past and present rides











I had MHP ECU tune the SLS and my '09 W211 E63 and also had a 100 shot on the E. The 2012 is as far as I've gone performance modification wise in a while afew years actually. The SLS is more for shows and tooling around.

Interesting look with the aftermarket round exhausts replacing the oem square ones.

NickE63

those are TSW Donovans or something like that, looks good but i wouldn't put those on a benz

vdubpower

if i was gonna get a lesser priced wheel id get tsw, they are good, decent designs

Is your Gallardo an e-gear car out of curiosity? I love the Verde Ithica's (I bought an 05 Arancio Borealis in February).

NickyBlack

They match the Altezza tailights he put on.

benzp_714

Yes it's an E Gear car.

A few pictures of the cars from this past weekends CVG car show and a huge thanks to my friend Merve for putting it on. What an amazing facility. For those that don't know CVG was contracted to make the body panels for the Ford GT and other automakers. It's more like a campus really.

Thanks to Addison Good of Good Guys car detailing and Bryce at Wheel Medic for getting all the cars show ready!!!

Wow, quite a wicked collection there.
