2013 Mercedes E63 Wagon
New to the AMG world, need advice

Hey everyone!

I just bought a '13 E63 Wagon and I am looking for some advice. I recently sold my CTSV wagon and always had a eye for the E63 so I finally pulled the trigger and bought one.


I am looking for more power and a little more sound. I am very happy with the cars performance but who doesn't want more?


its bone stock now with 20k miles.


What ECU Tune will allow me to keep all my factory setting but more power when I want it?


Any advice would be awesome. Thank you

Any of the ECU tunes will increase power and torque and leave everything else unchanged (except top speed that some tunes will also delimit)

You have a few options out there.. but the "keep my factory settings" doesn't really comply. You either want a tune and more horsepower, or factory settings. Either you want power, or you want warranty. You can get a tune and not void your warranty if they don't catch it, it's all in what you want out of the car.

sounds like you're looking for a piggyback tune like rebellion or a tune that lets you dial in power when you want then go back to stock with some type of controller

rhe rebellion tune is piggy back but you have to manually install and uninstall it... I've read about 20 minutes

there is not yet a tune you can toggle on the fly

I'm curious, what differences do you find in handling between the E63 and the CTSV?
Curves, braking, burning rubber or not, etc.?

Mine drives totally stock until I punch it and then the fun starts 600 hp to the wheels and my wife grabs those keys first to go get groceries each week.

THANKS FOR THE REPLIES :)

What tuning companies would you all recommend?


And to answer the other question about the CTS V. So Far the CTS V Had more power and spun the tires from 1-3 gear. Brakes was horrible and it had body sway for days. The E63 personally handles and brakes 100% better its just lacking in off the line power (CTS V was a top mount blower so thats the obvious answer)


In regards to sound, I would not mind a deeper tone. What do you all run?
