  • 2012 EDO Competition Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG T-Model with new power kit

    2012-EDO-Competition-Mercedes-Benz-C-63-AMG-T-Model-THUMB2012 EDO Competition Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG T-Model was designed specifically for the exceptional engine in the Mercedes C 63 AMG. The tuning that EDO Competition is offering to it is a power kit that will leave breathless almost anyone.

    In particular, the kit comprises of new exhaust system, exhaust headers, high-flow catalytic converters, new air filters, revised engine electronics and a removal of the top speed governor.

    As a result, the tuners have made the power of the Mercedes enormous – it was increased from the stock output of 457 horsepower (336 kW) to 600 horsepower (441 kW). Even more, the torque output has also grown from 600 Nm (442 lb-ft) to 680 Nm (501 lb-ft).

    The increase of power comes with an impressive and awe-inspiring sound. It is produced from the new exhaust with butterfly valves. In details, the high-performance exhaust system includes a programmable electronic controller. The latter monitors the level of back pressure and opens the integrated 70 mm butterfly valves when a certain threshold is exceeded.

    Moreover, this new exhaust is made entirely from stainless steel and the chromed exhaust tips. They look a lot like the original ones, and keep the same class and impressive styling.
