From Renntech's website, it looked like the front lip was a one piece, guess not.

Nice looking AMG CLS63 with Vossen CTVs. Just saying.




Would look even hotter with Renntech Diffuser and Front Lips

Ok. Here is the lowdown last night after 2 bottles of Johnny Walker gold label and 2 bottles of the best red wine. My cousin with the new GTR after driving ( before drinks ) my E63 said to me, since I am making my sedan stand out, why not do a Renntech turbo upgrade ? The GTR is getting an upgrade I was warned so why not make my E63 into a Lamborghini leader instead of chaser ? Stay tuned for a report.

Many thanks and am sorry if I misinfomed people.
Anybody can elaborate the difference between AWD 4matic and RWD with LSP? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks much.

Just ordered the AMG shadow lights from the link you provided. $22 !

Thanks for the tip bro. Looks like a lot of fun for $22. Unless of course, it turns out to look tacky. Lol. Worst case, I am out $22. Who cares.

No mods for my girl beyond sprintbooster, clear bra, and window tint.

I figure the $12G+ price for a Weistech SC would be better off spent on Eva's (her name) replacement. Remember, I came from a 2000 E55 for 16 years of 360 HP. So I look at Eva as my crossover to the serious Beast!

518HP surely does excite one further than 360HP !!!

After crossover, it will likely be a 2017 or 2018 biturbo version that I can tune the crap out of! Assuming of course, that somehow MB doesnt flip flop again back to NA. I dont see how they can beat the current models in performance with NA anymore though.

In the simplest terms, your LSD distributes power to the appropriate rear wheel, depending on the given need/situation. Not necessarily balance, but that's more nomenclature. Main thing to point out is that your car is RWD not AWD or 4WD, so by that very definition, it's impossible to send power to more than the rear wheels.

Cool. Glad I could of helped. How does Eva launch with the sprint booster ? I saw some says it works while some say it doesn't?

It sure is a step up from your E55 to the E63, you most be loving Eva.

It's a good call and save your money for the TT AMGs. More aftermarket mods are available. But you did bring up a good point, what if AMG decide to bring back the NA engines which I'm sure it'll up the HP/TQ then would we all see it as a less tuneable AMG?

Good luck.

Cool. I got it. So would it be safe to say stock AWD vs RWD launches faster, but the RWD with LSP has the advantage in the mid-higher end speeds?

Many thanks for your cleaification.

My main objective is to keep up with the big boys. I always forward thinking is can I tune a 4 door sedan to race with any 2 door sports car?

All you need is:
1. Down pipes
2. Upgraded air filters
3. Reliable ECU tune (I suggest EC, but I am biased)
4. Michelin SuperSports to help put this nearly 750 torque down to the ground.

I've run heavily modded GTRs, a twin turbo Gallardo, twin turbo R8, Aventador... None were able to pull away. Oddly enough the only cars that ever gave me problems were a CLS63, and a new BMW M6 (modded)

Thanks so much. 1-4 checked. BMT air fiters, but am concern about spark plugs. Any input guys?

Also, please kindly advise about problems with your CLS. Thinking of getting one?
