RK Autowerks developed air intakes for the AMG M157 5.5 liter twin turbo V8 under the hood of the C218 CLS63 AMG. Presumably, these can be adapted to the W212 E63 AMG which share the same M157 5.5 liter V8 as well. ...Published on 08-01-2019 06:42 PM
This is just stunning when you consider that the C205/W205 C63 AMG Coupe is still on its factory M177 engine internals and that the car is on the stock transmission. Remember, earlier this year the car set the quickest M177 record with a 10.1 @ 137.9 pass. ...Published on 08-01-2019 01:41 PM
Some great M177 hybrid turbocharger results here from MTR Performance. As the M177's are not paired to a dual clutch transmission like the M178 motors you usually see tuners ramp in torque a bit harder down low on the automatic transmission but sometimes at the expense of top end punch. ...Published on 07-31-2019 07:52 PM
The new W178 generation Mercedes-AMG A45 brings with it more than just new styling. The biggest change is that the world's most powerful production four-cylinder motor is now the M139 at 416 horsepower taking the crown the AMG M133 use to hold. ...Published on 07-30-2019 06:22 PM
Great numbers here from just a tune and catless downpipes on a C190 Mercedes-AMG GT S. The M178 offers plenty of room over the factory tune even on pump fuel. With just shy of 600 lb-ft at the wheels when the turbos spool this thing is going to move. ...Published on 07-30-2019 03:34 PM
A ton of highway runs here. We all know German cars excel on the highway so great to see a tuned F13 M6 get to stretch its legs against some high end hardware. The F13 M6 is tuned with PP-Performance Stage 2 software and it has exhaust modifications. ...Published on 07-26-2019 11:41 AM
Not bad for just software only, eh? This W213 Mercedes-AMG E63 S sedan received a custom dyno tune from Eurocharged Canada. The M177 4.0 liter twin turbo AMG V8 is a powerhouse but there is plenty left on the table for tuners. ...Published on 07-25-2019 09:11 AM
If you are wondering how some tuners are already dyno tuning certain cars with the Bosch MD1/MG1 ECU, it is because AutoTuner added support to the their tool. MD1 and MG1 are the same basic thing but one is for gasoline vehicles and the other for diesel. ...Published on 07-25-2019 05:52 AM
BenzBoost does not know exactly what is going on with this car or why GAD Motors is not making a bigger deal about it considering they seem to be in a league of their own. They certainly have proven that their M178 turbo upgrade released earlier this year is capable of 1200+ horsepower. ...Published on 07-18-2019 06:22 PM
HRE is one of the biggest names in the aftermarket wheel game. Over the past few years though we have seen the prices increase yet quality and customer service issues have popped up. For the premium HRE charges you expect the best of the best. ...Published on 07-18-2019 04:56 AM
Mercedes-AMG really confuses BenzBoost with their claims of larger turbochargers on the M276 DELA30 V6 motor. The experts on the engine platform at AMR Performance physically disassembled W205 C43 AMG turbochargers and confirmed they did not differ from previous turbos despite AMG claims. ...Published on 07-17-2019 01:35 AM
You might be saying, didn't the new Mercedes-AMG GT R Pro lap the Nurburgring in 7:04.6? Yes, it did, in the hands of Mercedes-AMG test drivers. Suffice it to say, Mercedes-AMG has greater resources at its disposal at the Nurburgring than Sport Auto. ...Published on 07-15-2019 05:22 PM
Here it is, the even sharper Mercedes-AMG GT R PRO. What is the difference between the PRO and the standard R? The PRO gets revised aerodynamics, suspension, and more lightweight carbon fiber pieces. Engine output remains the same. ...Published on 07-13-2019 05:01 PM
Great to see the heavier W213 E43 AMG in the 11's. This is the quickest and fastest E43 AMG recorded to date. The car was built by VTC Auto Tuning in the Dominican Republic and they utilized Weistec parts. ...Published on 07-10-2019 11:24 PM
California is a lost cause. Whomever thought this was a good idea needs to be removed immediately from government work. Part of the appeal of a car for many is doing your own work (whatever that may entail) in the comfort of your own garage. ...
