MEC gives Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG a whopping 592-hp upgrade
Just when the W204 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG wasn”t über enough, MEC Design, a Berlin-based company offers a performance and visual upgrade package: the Performance Package Plus.
Starting with the epic 6.3L V8, a stainless steel exhaust system is offered in the package, which also contains higher-flow racing catalytic converters. Additionally, the ECU is reworked removing the 155 MPH limiter and a sports air filter is swapped in. Power is upped to 592 bhp and 516 lb-ft of torque, up from 451 bhp and 443 lb-ft of torque. Boy, does remind me of cars like the old AMG Hammer of the 1980s.
As with the many other similar upgrades offered for many other cars, the standard AMG front fascia is reworked with a carbon fiber lip, redesigned side vents, and the rear spoiler and diffuser are changed to carbon fiber.
And low and behold, more carbon fiber upgrades are offered in the interior. Changes are made to the seats, door trim panels, center console, the instrument cluster, and the steering wheel. And just when MEC couldn”t resist, carbon fiber floor mats too!
Wheel options are also offered which include MEC”s signature alloys, 20-inch MECExtremeIII”s.
