Twin-Turbo V8 that should produce 469hp and 479lb-ft of torque whilst the GLC 63 S should get 503hp and 516lb-ft of torque. This definitely shouldn't be anything short of power. Massive front air dam
Without a doubt. When they release something with 503hp, the engine is designed to run that 503hp extremely safely. Components can handle it no problem, and the AFR is in a really safe zone. Tuning it to push on that engine a little more and even bump it to 515-518hp shouldn't be an issue at all. Could just be a matter of adding a bit more boost and adding/pulling some timing.
I agree and when you look at the numbers, a safe 20% increase in power is another 100HP, enough to easily feel it.
Who knows what the actual threshold is for a safe tune but eventually we should start seeing things come out.
What will help is the fact Mercedes has a lot of vehicles out there, so a tuner that already provides to other Mercedes segments already has some foundation built up, which speeds up the process here.
But regardless of what comes out and from who I will be waiting for someone to be the guinea pig.
A shame that they got a special grill on that car, or should I say that our GLC43 grill is used on diesels in the standard A / C / E class models. I think it is nice, but doesn't really look wild enough for my liking. I'd like a V8, but would find it hard to justify when the V6 is so good.
Heck I was glad the 350d wasn't out when I ordered mine as otherwise I couldn't have justified the GLC43 to myself....
can't get enough of edition one packages
my neighbor has an edition one c-class and although the changes are subtle, you still know its something special, much like the GLC we see here.
The price for the carbon package really isn't bad at all and definitely worth it in my opinion. Some people do prefer a piano black trim instead but I'm a carbon kinda guy
