Sorry about the theft Earl. It's a shame there are people out there who feel the need to steal nice things from good people. I hope you're able to recover them.

Thanks Sonny and Even Money. I spoke to a tech and he suggested the same thing. It will be itneresting to see the difference between dyno numbers, but I'm not going to give it too much after thought....

Here's a video of the dyno run as well. Someone else told me you're supposed to punch it at 4th gear and not roll into it and that makes a difference in HP read.

Here are some pictures of the Dynamometer.

The Mustang dyno is weather corrected based on the DA from the nearest weather station so I don't know the actual DA.

Yea, Pertplus put down 380 rwhp on a Mustang Dyno with MBH headers (with Hi-Flo Cats), Akropovic Exhaust, ACG Stage 2 Tune, BMC Filters and 91 Octane so I feel that I am in the range I should be in...

I had a leak in the intake manifold that I got that fixed the week after my 11.913 at 119.22 mph, but have not gotten to the track to test and see the results.

After the leak was fixed I did...

No cats. Our setup is almost identical except for the ROW airboxes and maybe the air filters.

The weird thing was I was expecting to see 470 rwhp on the Mustang because that is what you showed,...

Ok, now for the comparison. I did 3 runs today.

The first one we tried in 5th gear. I think I hit the the speed limiter or something because as you can see from the graph there is a clear drop at...

Thanks guys. I am heading back to dyno again in 1.5 hours. I am not 100% sure, but I believe we only turned off ESP and did not put into dyno mode. I will check again and I will also ask to run in...

I was going to hold of on this thread until after I have results before and after, but because it was so low I thought I would ask the forum for some help.

Here are the results I had of the dyno...

Byron Dragway closed for the season last week. GLD up in Wisconsin might still be open if it doesn't snow, but we have snow in the forecast and I read on their site that they will close first...

Car was running pretty well when I left the dealership. They replaced a couple seals, the intake manifold gaskets and the bolts all under warranty.

Not sure how much hp I was losing, but I can...

So after talking with the Mercedes tech today I learned that the install of the catch can is fine in the front of the engine bay, but the placement of the PCV adapters is in a bad position.

I'm...

I don't know anybody who would have touched the intake manifold previously.



It's out of my hands now, but when I get it back I will check to see if the same sounds are there. I specifically...

Thanks. I'll do that.



I think I understand. The tech said he'll show me when I come pick up the car too.

It turns out the TSB is for engine codes outside my range, but they found there to be a leaky intake manifold and several gaskets.

They are working on replacing all the bolts and gaskets. I hope...

Can you please send me the link to the instructions for a C63 install? I had the shop do it based off your pictures, but just talked to the tech at the Mercedes dealer and he thinks the...

Well, it looks like I am going to hold off on the dyno test. I had the shop check for vacuum leaks and they found some. They don't know exactly where the leak is, but I'm bringing the car into the...

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to try that.

That's fine, but the text he had in the original post said the car was putting out 497 BHP. Anyone reading the post would know that the regular C63 is rated at 451 hp and adding 92 hp to 451 does not...

Nah. I've asked the shop that is doing the dyno to install it for me. I'm also going to ask they check for leaks while they're under the hood.

It's a simple install from what I hear, but I don't...

I'm hoping to have mine installed this weekend. Unfortunately I don't drive my car that much so it might take some time to accumulate, but it will be interesting to see if I have that much after a...

Kenny, please fix the information in the post to be more accurate. You are not putting out 497 BHP. You should be closer to 540 BHP with a tune on a regular C63.

Also you should clarify the work...

Sorry about the crap you're going through. That would explain the absence. I've tried calling the shop in TX and nobody has ever returned my calls so I've resorted to posting in the forums.

I'm...
