This video was sent to BenzBoost as we missed it but it shows a C205 Mercedes-AMG C63 S Coupe running at Byron Dragway. The owner states the transmission gave out and that may be the case but he did put down some mid-10-second passes. ...Published on 01-16-2019 01:03 AM
The Eurocharged Canada location sure is busy these days tuning just about everything. Eurocharged is historically regarded as an expert Mercedes-AMG tuner and they certainly do plenty of Mercedes-AMG tuning such as this CLA45 AMG. ...Published on 01-16-2019 12:33 AM
Live in California? Have a loud exhaust? Well, read up. A lot of information is flying about regarding a new exhaust law in California with people stating they are immediately being fined $1000 rather than get a 'fix it' ticket. This is not exactly the case. ...Published on 01-10-2019 07:41 PM
Syvecs will be phasing out their very popular S6 line of standalone ECU's in favor of their new S7i and S7 Plus models. Why? Technology marches on of course and the new S7 units are incredibly capable. ...Published on 01-07-2019 11:41 PM
Say hello to the second generation Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class. At first glance you may not notice much of a difference as the general proportions look similar with some lighting changes inspired by the CLS-Class. ...Published on 12-28-2018 08:50 PM
It is odd to think of an AMG S-Class as a tuning value but the entire M157 5.5 liter twin turbo V8 line is now exactly that. The M177/M178 motors phased out the older and larger AMG twin turbo V8 and you can find it in many past AMG 63 models for a great value on the used market. ...Published on 12-21-2018 09:56 PM
Watching a car do a GPS run is one thing compared to actually seeing that performance measured against a benchmark. In this case the benchmark is the Ferrari 812 Superfast and Ferrari definitely is not joking that the 812 is fast. ...Published on 12-21-2018 05:31 PM
To be perfectly fair this is from a GPS readout but it is so unbelievably impressive it needs to be shared. The Mercedes-AMG GLC63 is arguably the best all around performance SUV in the world when you take into account its price, engine, performance, and weight. ...Published on 12-21-2018 04:24 PM
At the 2018 PRI (Performance Racing Industry) show the Oerlikon Group had 3D metal printed pistons and hollow stem titanium valves on display. 3D metal printers are expensive tools that are becoming more and more popular and they can do a variety of things. ...Published on 12-18-2018 04:33 PM
Sport Auto is a German publication and a funny thing happens when German publications include a Porsche against world rivals. The Porsche tends to win. Which is interesting because their comparison test includes the Ferrari 488 Pista which is destroying everything in its path. ...Published on 12-18-2018 03:22 AM
Let's not pretend the turbo engine era is about saving the planet and lowering emissions. The cars are getting so big and heavy that to improve performance they had to go to turbos. How else are you going to move an E-Class cabriolet that weighs as much as an E63 wagon? ...Published on 12-17-2018 08:31 PM
Mercedes-AMG has an absurd profit margin going here on the AMG GT 4-Door models. For one thing, these cars have absolutely nothing to do with an actual AMG GT 2-Door coupe other than the name. The only basic similarity is the motor but even then the 4-Door does not get the dry-sump M178 mill of the AMG GT S 2-Door. ...Published on 12-13-2018 11:34 PM
Over 700 wheel horsepower on 93 octane is absolutely incredible and makes for one badass AMG GT. The M178 gets upgraded turbochargers courtesy of the Weistec W.3 turbo upgrade package and Laborx dialed this setup in with a custom dyno tune. ...Published on 12-13-2018 05:42 PM
Like having a custom tune for race gas or ethanol but hate the idea of being stuck in a situation where you run out of the fuel you are tuned for? Well, finally the Dimsport handheld is available for the F and G chassis BMW's as well as turbo Mercedes motors. ...Published on 12-11-2018 05:15 PM
The W213 Mercedes-AMG E-class design just looks so good as a wagon. A 10-second family hauler? Why not? Weistec's software tune alone helps push the M177 twin turbo 4.0 liter V8 under the hood to 625 horsepower and 680 lb-ft of torque at the wheels. ...
Good luck...
