Exclusive handmade exhaust system for Mercedes-AMG C63? Why not!?

A rather sweet upgrade: there is an exclusive exhaust system from CL by Christian Lübke that not only fits the aggressive style of the Mercedes-AMG C63 vehicle, but also contributes to even higher levels of performance and agility. This is a special handcrafted system limited to only 100 units and each single one of these is a piece of art by itself.

As you might know, Christian Lübke is named “the engineer with passion” and has delivered numerous pieces of technology that can easily be classified as a piece of art. And just like his previous inventions, the latest exhaust system is no exception.

But let’s put aesthetics aside for a second. In terms of performance, this one has a lot to demonstrate. It maximizes the overall big potential of the bi-turbo V8 AMG power unit and contributes to better calibration and lower backpressure of the CL 3.0-inch diameter pipe. Or, in other words, the new system enhances the capabilities of the vehicle in incredible way: there are a total of 620hp (462kW) that make it possible for the vehicle to go from 0 to 100km/h (62mph) in less than 4 seconds and chase a top speed of a bit more than 300km/h (166kW).

Further bonuses include electronically controlled sound flap that is directly connected to the AMG performance controller and a choice of three selectable driving modes: Normal, Sport and Sport+. What these are doing are to enable the driver to choose between restrained growl, deep burble at low crankshaft speeds and turn it to a race scream. Cool.

And last, but certainly not least, the special exhaust system is offered with a set of 20-inch Fa. Schmidt alloys that are also exclusive for this project. They feature fine balance between hi-tech spirit and luxurious styling. And are definitely worth the check. Trust me!

Terrific Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 brought to perfection thanks to SCHMIDT Revolution

Tuner implements simple measures to make the CLA more beautiful

I love the CLA. Probably if you are a Mercedes fan you are on the same opinion, too. Well, it is probably the best looking model in the lineup and it captivates with its posture and appearance. It is also kind of strange to work on a tuning project involving this model due to its perfection, but specialists like SCHMIDT Revolution have the courage to do this. And more importantly, to do this with simple measures.

First the experts had to lower the vehicle, so their idea could manifest. For this purpose the Speed-Box/Raceland was in charge to bring the beautiful CLA 45 AMG 25 mm closer to the ground with the help of H&R springs.

In terms of the wheels added, they had to be flushed exactly with the bodywork… but not to touch it. How this was made possible? Thanks to a specific scan of the wheel housings, the adjustment of the Gambit-rims happened with the help of CAD technology.

SCHMIDT Revolution Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 rear view

There was a little requirement, too: the dimension of the rubbers, namely 235/35R19, was mandatory in order to match the front axle load capacity of 1.140 kg. The result: the fantastic wheel-tire-combination is stunning! It allows almost unobstructed view of the red-painted brake calipers.

At last, but not least, SCHMIDT Revolution also implemented a performance increase, bringing the CLA to the potent 400 HP with chiptuning. For added appearance there are extra performance-side stripes with Speed-Box-logo and OEM-rear wing. Nice, isn’t it?

Startling Mercedes-AMG GT R rivals Porsche 911 with its 655HP

Alpha-N Performance delivers comprehensive tuning for the sports-car

It is always great to see when a tuning specialist brings out the true potential of a machine so powerful like the Mercedes-AMG GT R. And did you know that with the production of this car, the super-luxury car automaker has aimed at models like the Porsche 911? Well, Mercedes did not keep this in secret, instead released great variants of the GT one-after another.

The Mercedes-AMG GT was launched in early 2015, when it showed-off with its twin-turbocharged 4.0 litre V8 unit capable of 462 hp. The GT S that was released simultaneously was given a little but greater force: 510 hp. But at the top of the range stands the radical GT R, which debuted this June at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Ready or not, it will bring you the experience of 585 hp or exactly 75 more horses than the ultimate rival: the Porsche 911 Turbo S.

I have just felt how envious Porsche fans became and unfortunately (for them) I have the information that the tuning specialist at Alpha-N Performance managed to extract from the bi-turbo V8 unit even more force.

Alpha-N Performance Mercedes-AMG GT R engine

To achieve this, they have developed a two-stage power increase program, which featured the Alpha-N EVOX Tuning kit. Lo and behold, the Mercedes-AMG GT R delivers with ease the 655 hp and 790 Nm. To round out everything nicely, the tuning experts added a set of distinctive OZ Racing Ultraleggera HLT alloys, sized at 20-inches, and perfectly complementing the matt white foil wrap.

How cool is that?

This Mercedes-AMG A45 makes it to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds! We thank POSAIDON for that

POSAIDON A45 RS485+ is a true 315 km/h sportscar hunter!

As Mercedes-Benz A-Class driver, I’m always hyped when a tuner goes for this model. This time the heroes in my eyes are the experts at POSAIDON, which has given their best to modify the hottest among hatchbacks – the Mercedes-AMG A45 is the hottest of the hot hatchbacks.

Besides the beautiful looks, the car is the most powerful among its range: its original output is measured at 360 hp (235 kW) that were increased to 381 hp (280 kW) via last year’s facelift. What’s making the driving experience even more exciting is the relatively modest weight of the A45, the intelligent all-wheel system and the exhilarating 7-speed DCT. Potent, right?

Well, on this fantastic basis are working the tuning specialists at POSAIDON, who have improved the sleeping potential of this hatch. Lo and behold, the A45 RS485+ was born! And by the way, this is the most potent interpretation of AMG A45 so far!

The goal was to produce nothing less than 500 hp. So, to achieve this, the first thing POSAIDON did was substitute the standard turbocharger with a racing one. The latter features bespoke larger turbine. Added to the impeller wheels and gas-flowed scroll housing, this is allowing the unit to process the required amount of air and to use a higher boost pressure.

The next step was to scrutinize the air intake system to ensure that the big turbo gets as much air as it needs. Then low restriction air filter and high efficiency intercooler were too mounted.

POSAIDON Mercedes-AMG A45 RS485 rear view

Step three was to improve the other side of the engine, namely – the exhaust. This happened with the means of optimized, larger diameter, stainless steel downpipe with the option of a free-flow, 200-cell catalytic converter. Everything else in the exhaust stays unchanged. The result is reduced exhaust gas temperatures and thermal stress on the engine and cooling system. At last, POSAIDON remapped the engine and transmission software, in order to make full advantage of the hardware upgrades.

What happened at the dyno tests? Besides the aimed 500 hp, the car showed capability of 555 Nm (404 lb-ft) of torque. The top speed is electronically limited to 315 km/h, meaning it can go far beyond this. The stopwatch? Well, it recorder something remarkable: 0-100 km/h sprint in just 3.5 seconds!

To tame this extra power, POSAIDON also tuned the uprated front brake kit with the addition of 365×34 mm vented steel discs, clamped by six-pot callipers. Steel brake hoses contribute for a firmer and better pedal feel.

I would love driving this beautiful piece of art. How about you?

G-POWER surprises with stunning Mercedes-AMG G63 conversion

G-POWER Mercedes-AMG G63 front view

The iconic off-roader’s V8 now receives an addition of 74 hp and 140 Nm of torque

G-POWER has been mainly associated with BMW conversions. However, the tuning studio is also keen on optimizing another German automaker’s models: the Mercedes-Benz cars. The conversion here includes the iconic off-roader G63 AMG, which has received a significant power boost and a brand new shoes to run on.

The latest variant of the Mercedes-AMG G63 is driven by the 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, which produces the impressive 571 hp (420 kW) with 760 Nm (561 lb-ft) of torque. So, it is a great basis to work on, and the G-POWER engineers have taken advantage of this fact.

The first thing they did is to develop a Bi-Tronik 5 V1 power module, which helps the V8 release additionally 74 hp and 140 Nm of torque. To make the math for you, this makes a total of 645 hp (474 kW) and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft).

G-POWER Mercedes-AMG G63 engine

Here are some details about this power module: it is connected upstream of the engine control unit, thus modifying the data from the vehicle’s sensors and transmitting it to the stock ECU. The latter has an output control parameters, which are based on this incoming data.

If we have more power, we should also have better performance, right? The stopwatch says it better: due to the extra power and torque, this G63 AMG is now capable to run from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.3 seconds. After the removal of the top speed limiter, the off-roader can now produce more than 250 km/h!

More power sometimes requires new on-road attitude, and the simplest way to achieve this is to add new wheels. So the specialists at G-POWER didn’t hesitate to equip the Mercedes with their ultra-light 23-inch HURRICANE RR forged alloys, fitting it additionally with 305/35ZR23 tyres. They have black finish and five double-spoke wheel design, which perfectly highlights the sports character of the G63 AMG and contrasts its exterior paint scheme.

Show some love for this project!

Mercedes A-Class: the controversial car is now in its best form after PIECHA’s conversion

PIECHA Design offers new styling kits for the W176

Who said that the controversial Mercedes A-Class can not look sporty? Well, of course after the general transformation it received in 2012, the car looks unrecognizable from its original form. Because of the negative customer reaction of the “minivan”-like A-class, the new variants look mostly as a small version of the C-class. Still, the transformed automobile debuted four years ago, and if you are among those owning one, but are satisfied with its performance and capabilities, then you will most certainly like this article.

The tuning experts at PIECHA Design have just released very stylish and sporty variant of the A-Class. The cosmetic changes are due to the addition of company’s GT and GT-R styling kits, but they not only contribute for the good looks, but also make the car faster and more agile.

Here are the details: the front of the A250 is adorned with a pair of new GT-R front cup wings. They have been placed in the original AMG bumper, thus helping the car look wider. For added assertiveness takes care the GT-R front splitter as it divides the big external front apron grid.

At the back of the automobile we see something very pleasing: the GT-R roof edge spoiler, which highlights the striking new body shapes of the A-Class. The final touch at the rear is given by the GT-R rear diffusor insert that sports the original AMG twin tailpipe trims of the SL63 AMG (or C63 AMG, depending on customer’s choice).

PIECHA Design Mercedes-Benz A-Class front view

By the way, if your A-Class isn’t an AMG, then you will need PIECHA’s GT air dam lip URBAN that is stuck upon the production bumper. To it should be also added the GT sill flaps URBAN, so that you can get the sporty AMG appearance. Not forgetting to add better alloys: the tuning studio is actually offering 19-inch high-tech MP1-Monoblocks in titanium or black, or 20-inch MP5-LXMs in silver or black.

Now that’s an A-Class to praise, isn’t it?

How to make your old E-Class look like a Nissan GT-R? Piecha Design answers!

Piecha Design releases GT-R aerodynamic set for the Mercedes-AMG E-Class W212

We are announcing Piecha Design for tuner of the month, because of its unstoppable projects that keep coming to us. More importantly they are all great and rather unusual, and we are more than happy to share them with you! After making a modern variant of the iconic SL Roadster (link below), the designers are ready to introduce something rather special and a little bit strange. They have released a GT-R set (yes, like the Nissan GT-R) for the Mercedes AMG E-Class W212.

You won’t see the latter in dealerships nowadays, because it was produced from 2009 until 2013. Although there has been some time since it went off production, the car still looks contemporary with its four angular eyes and prolonged posture.

What really impressed us here was the name of the kit the tuning studio added: PIECHA GT-R aerodynamic set. We immediately rushed to read more about what it features. So, here are the details, which you might find intriguing too.

Piecha Design Mercedes-AMG E-Class W212 rear

First, the kit is available for limos and T-models. It underlines the dynamic stance of the E-Class with the following in-house made parts: front flics and trims for the AMG side skirts, four-spot skirt LEDs, GT-R inspired rear diffusor (the star here) with its aluminium grid and GT sport-type exhaust (which also comes with various deflectors). The latter includes four oval QUADRO tailpipes sized 118 x 85 mm.

Packed with these goodies the Mercedes runs on 20-inch MP5-LXM alloys. The racing posture of the car is further supported by the new suspension parts. To be more specific, it is the digital electronic Airmatic module, which lowers the ride height by up to 50mm. Controlled by the CANBUS steering-wheel control panel, each axle can be eight-level-adjusted. The necessary details will be displayed on its screen.

Last, but not least, the E-class GT-R has been also given the PIECHA Power-Converter, but the tuner decided to keep the enhanced numbers a secret.

So, which one’s next Piecha? Maybe the SLS AMG?

Mercedes-AMG strikes again: 2018 GT R revealed!

2018 Mercedes-AMG GT R So, what do we have here? A premium automobile brand, a premium tuner brand and a street-legal masterpiece: definitely the new AMG GT R is one hell-of-a vehicle. Distinctive and beautiful, the car has a lot to show. And without any further stalling, let’s see what we are dealing with.

Exterior design

We all know that this is a Mercedes-Benz vehicle and we all know how stylish these cars are. Of course, this one is no exception: we have a low-slung front section, forward-inclined radiator grille that somehow makes a “shark-nose” expression. In fact, the front fascia proudly demonstrates a new jet-wing design that enhances the feeling of massiveness and width.

Spending countless hours in a wind tunnel, the new Mercedes-AMG comes with sleek and aerodynamic profile with elegant lines and overall aggressive appearance.

2018 Mercedes-AMG GT R

Furthermore, the front fenders not only contribute to the overall beautiful expression, but also reduce weight: made of light carbon-fiber, these bad boys add a total of 1.8 inches to the width. The side view also benefits from new AMG Performance forged wheels in matte black. Of course, we do see the brake calipers, painted in yellow. Apparently, the sporty spirit is present and within the side view. And provided that the vehicle comes with high-grade carbon roof, we tend to believe that this is by far the most sporty-oriented Mercedes-AMG machine created so far.

2018 Mercedes-AMG GT R

And last, but not least, the rear end also has some stuff to show: new aluminum side walls that widen the rear with a total of 2.2 inches, which also improves the airflow and leaves space for additional dissipation of the heat generated by the rear silencer. So, what we do have as a result: aerodynamic shape that increases the surface contact and an enhanced drivability blended with striking beautiful and sporty design. Cool, right?

Interior styling

2018 Mercedes-AMG GT R

The cabin is also heavily inspired by the world of motorsport. Buyers will be pleased to know that the car is geared with AMG Performance Seats with Nappa leather and DINAMICA microfiber components. Also, the wide-looking dashboard looks functional and somehow reminds of an aviation design theme. There are four central spotlight-style vents and concave-shaped door paneling with dynamic central console. Surely the AMG GT-R offers some neat sporty experience, thanks to the driver-focused cabin and all of these small sporty details that make a huge difference.

Drivetrain and performance

2018 Mercedes-AMG GT R

Led by the idea of less is more, the AMG team managed to reduce the overall weight and therefore enhance the agility and versatility of the vehicle. Mercedes-AMG engineers used numerous aluminum alloy components for the body and chassis, some steel for the trunk and magnesium for the front deck.

The suspension system was also fine-tuned and systematically designed for racetrack use. Wishbones, steering kunckles and hub carriers on the front and rear axle were created entirely of forged aluminum, while the high camber and the toe-in stability contributes in high cornering speeds and at the same time offers optimum feel for the road when driving with full force.

Also present is the high-performance composite brake system that ensures precise deceleration and high fade-resistance with internally ventilated and perforated 15.4-inch diameter brake discs.

And most importantly: what does the engine offer? Well, the GT R comes with a handcrafted AMG power unit with 4.0 liters of fuel capacity, offering the titanic 577hp (430kW) and peak torque of 516 lb-ft between 1,900 and 5,500 rpm.

The engine has undergone some special tweaks and fine-tunes and comes with modified compressor machining, smaller wastegate aneroid capsule and sharpened engine mapping. The V8 Biturbo engine also features twin-scroll turbochargers, mounted on the outside of the cylinder banks. This contributes to a compact engine design, better response and better CO2 emission rates.

This unit is paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox with modified hardware and software for longer ratio for the first gear and longer ratio for the final ones.

So, do you like it? We are more than excited about the new Mercedes-AMG creation. Write down what you think in the comment section!

If this Mercedes-AMG GT S could only happen…

Piecha Design reveals first couple of renderings of the customized AMG GT S

Remember when we showed you the first sketch of Piecha Design’s Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S? Well, it is now time for the project to be fully revealed! Behold, for it is something entirely unexpected…

Leaving jokes aside, this car actually looks pretty good, given the fact that Marcus Piecha and his team told us initially that we should not expect an entirely new design. Their aim was to highlight the beautiful character of the Mercedes. And they have definitely achieved that.

Another advantage is that the basic shape of the car is attractive, hence it is way easier to make something look better when it is so good from the start. Anyway, this dream sports car is now taking shape and although still in a rendering form we can see some of its unique qualities.

In short – it is all about carbon-fiber here, exposed and unexposed. The best part of this project is probably the extra-wide rear that was designed by the owner. He actually told us that affixing it gave him some sleepless nights, because he wanted to keep the original brake wings fully operational.

Piecha Mercedes-AMG GT S Renderings rear view

Another attraction here is the slim lower “back-end” with its four-pipe exhaust with 90mm outlets. And to give you a hint of what’s next – there is new suspension on the way, which will contribute for more dramatic stance and better driving characteristics. Furthermore, we have more extra carbon-fiber goodies, including side blades and front-cup wings as well as air splitters in the front apron.

What can’t be seen in the renderings is the performance optimization that we were promised. So we should expect significant gain over the production numbers that the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S has. Namely, 510 hp (375 kW) and 650 Nm (480 lb-ft) of torque.

“But that’s not all,” says Marcus Piecha who is most probably going to surprise us with the full release of the project very soon. Stay tuned!
