    Would you rather drive an E55 or a W204 C63? Do you like the carbon fiber Ridge wallet or the Burnt Titanium? Check out ridge at ridge.com/legit and don't forget coupon code "Legit" for 10% off.

      C63. I have a CLK63AMG and just love the sound of the M156, especially with the roof down. I’m really interested to see what other mods are carried out on the N/A platform without strapping a supercharger. E.g cams. Is it possible to hit 600+Bhp N/A without resorting to expensive M159 parts

    That is pretty under powered for having long tube headers and row boxes. I would definitely advise to get it tuned by Eurocharged from either Jerry or Jake the co-owners of Eurocharged. With your mods of long tube headers, secondary cat deletes with x-pipe, row air boxes, and e85 tune you should see near 450whp on a Mustang dyno and about 500whp on a Dynojet. Some have seen near 525whp.

    What is the torque value?
    Did you also tune the gearbox?
