FYI, the 6.2 liter engine in the C63 is detuned. It's potential is 514 hp and 465 lb ft torque. AMG can't have a C class more powerful than the E, S, SL, CL, CLS.
A friend of mine is getting the C63 and he would like to bring it to 500 HP THEN tune it : do you know if is it doable ?
Which are the differences between the two engines ?

New map for the ECU, free flow exhaust, and air intake should get the C63 back to 500 hp.

I mean ok it has a 6.2 or .3 liter engine
but it produces like what only 30 more hp than the best engine of them all?! I mean with 2.2 liters more or .3
how much of an argument is that.

And like VT said, this is a detuned version of the AMG 6.2, the biggest output is seen in the CL63 and S63 they produce 518hp. The 6.2’s are phenomenal power plants.

As always, that was fun to watch. The YouTube links will likely die out due to copyright issues so if you haven't seen them yet, hurry up and watch them..
Also, for those in the USA that aren't aware, older Top Gear episodes can be seen on BBC America...they're always very well done and top notch.
