Hello i am new to the forum, looking to get into a 2019 e63s sedan very soon. selling another vehicle at the moment. Just had a few questions on the car .
use for the car will be daily driver, not going to strip.
I plan to tune car, downpipes, race filters, and maybe a turbo upgrade either stage one or stage two (Pure turbo), feel free to voice your opinions please.

Brakes... regular or the carbon ceramic ? and why. I have seen the pricing on carbon replacements and its scary. But if they last a long time it could be worth looking into.

Mods... what are the tuned guys on here mostly going with (what tuner)
what downpipes ?
As far as the turbo upgrade mentioned above has anyone went with a stage one or stage two upgrade ? pros and cons ? Trans issues ?

Exhaust i am going to get a car with the amg performance exhaust but has anyone switched to an AWE SWITCHPATH exhaust ? any benifits ?
Also renntech recently came out with a remote controlled exhaust valve thing, that opens the flaps to 100% any word on that ?
Anyone running exhaust cut outs ?

Driving the car daily totally stock and am quite happy with it. Could I use a couple hundred extra HP, sure, too much is almost enough . . .

But for a daily driver with intact warranty, I can live for now with the mods.

As to the brakes, I have CCBs. I don't have to spend any time at all cleaning brake dust off my wheels. Quite happy with the stopping power. Haven't tracked the car and probably won't but have carved some canyon and mountain roads. No issues with brake fade. One issue on these cars that is just starting to be seen by some is unexpectedly early rear brake pad replacement being required. This is seen by drivers who push the vehicle to the point where the traction control lights illuminates frequently. From Comfort to Race mode the car engages TC progressively less actively but even in Race mode TC still engages and uses the rear brakes to limit wheel spin. So keep an eye on the TC lights and adjust driving (or mode) accordingly or replace the brakes more frequently.

I currently run eurocharged + catless dp + filters and Weistec blow off valves. It’s definitely grin inducing. I have tracked my car about 5-6 times and have had to change my front stock rotors and pads at 12k miles ; the cost at an Indy garage with AMG parts was over $4300 (ouch!)

Had I to order it again I would get CCB’s but it may not be necessary if you are not planning on tracking the car . Not having to constantly clean the brake dust is a def plus though

I have the Akrapovich system with the switchable tones, run through the factory switch on the console....
It is....fantastic. No drone, and very reasonably quiet on lower position. Now, it is CRAZY expensive, but the quality is beautiful, and weighs less than the factory system..
Did I mention it sounds GREAT? Ridiculously expensive, but it sounds great....

what brand?

HappE63s

Brand of downpipes ? If so Allenjmd has the Akrapovich brand of downpipes .

I purchased mine from Shardul who has posted on this thread . I am happy with the install and product but I maybe would have gone for the high flow cats if I were to order it again. The catless dp gets loud even at a small amount of throttle . I have to drive carefully and apply the least amount of throttle when driving into my neighborhood - even with the flaps of my perf exhaust closed. Other wise there is no drone at constant highway speeds or just driving around the city .

Here is a clip of open valve low to moderate throttle sound

Renntech downpipes. About $4k worth. But once I got the box tuned for the downpipes, it is a beautiful thing. It ran well before, but not even smoother. No CE's or any trouble...
