Very nice! What's the horsepower increase with the optional AMG Driver's Package over the standard edition?
I am a recent owner of a 2018 C 43 AMG. Its a super fun car and I am enjoying the heck out it,208 vs. 375
Those are really nice, probably the only crossover type vehicle on the market I'd be happy to own. 2L 4 makes 375 hp at 24 psi boost! The new direct injected turbos are capable of tuning it would take race fuel to accomplish with port injection.
Nice figures! What's the lb/ft now? Did you do a dyno test yet?
And with only just an ECU reflash by Renntech, it goes up to 428HP and 417lb/ft of torque!!!!
IIRC Audi has something similar. Do you have that chip Bruce? I understand that they aren't very expensive and are approved by Audi. How about the one for the AMG
Yes, I'll be ordering the chip. It's only $1750. Cheap horsepower! The AMG center here will install/warrant the work. I had it installed in the SL which increased it from 577 to 605!
Very cool Bruce. Enjoy !!!
What does the chip do to the 45's MPG? I would have thought getting that kind of power with really good MPG would be a treat, not having to stop at the gas station as frequently.

Does installing this chip in the SL void the MB factory warranty, or complicate regular service or smog testing in any way?
If you don't drive like a hooligan, then the gas mileage should be about the same as stock. Drive like a hooligan and all bets are off!! I've gotten as low as 9 mpg in the SL.....
