Hey that wagon looks familiar...
Yep, my new wagon! Feels like a beast, but still need to get some numbers together to understand how the performance translates on the street. The Renntech R3 tune that the wagon had on when I got it was very, very conservative. Totally behaved around town, but could tell it was leaving power on the table. Also think that there is something up with the cooling/IATs - it has the Renntech intercooler upgrade, but the previous owner and I have both have seen some serious IAT spikes, and the cooling system had to be bled out multiple times when dyno'd. I don't know if there is an air leak, or if the design is better in theory than in practice, but think there is more HP left up top that will come with either meth or fixing the IAT problem (open to advice for anyone who has done any cooling mods!). Expect that their is also some more room with higher E85 blend, but going to settle with this power level first and get some track/dragy/log time in.
As some of you have seen (and poked fun at me for, yet again, upgrading to another wagon haha) yes selling my wagon. If you are here, it is because you already have a W212 AMG haha, so don't expect many buyers from this forum...but feel free to pass long! Have it posted on autotrader and 6speed
33,500mi or so, and $75,9k. Clean Carfax, paper title in hand, About $210k in the build (thankfully mostly prior owner's money!). Feel free to point them my way, or to the ad on Autotrader: https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ngId=571652857
Didn't put it in a post here, they are out on my IG @uber.wag. Was 10.97 @ 128.7mph first time out, soft launch. Based on testing since then with dragy and fuel adjustments, I think it's in line with what the other E-blend tune cars are at in mid 10's but haven't had time to get back to the track. Maybe over winter break!

I had swapped back to the RT 93oct tune. (We were troubleshooting some misfires...turns out we got too cute when we swapped in step colder Brisk plugs, and they were...not good). OEM gapped plugs fixed it, but didn’t get back on the dyno tune in time for the drag strip.

if you want colder headache free plugs i know few that are running (including myself) GTS 4.0L plugs gapped at 0.022 with no issues. I ran 10.82 on my car

I normally don't like wagons in white as it gets very appliance looking but yours is exceptional ! stunning. Make me want a rear diffuser . What's next ?
I'd post this on Rennlist as there are a bunch of us GT owners that have E63's as DD's . One guy iirc was considering one...
