After releasing photos and details with their performance upgrade kit for the Ferrari Enzo, today the German tuner introduces the Edo Mercedes C63 AMG. As you probably expected the Edo Mercedes C63 AMG packs even more power than the standard version and as far as exterior modifications you will notice the black ultra-lightweight 19 inch sport wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.
The Edo Mercedes C63 AMG is now boosting 555 HP and 680 Nm of torque which are an extra 98 HP and 80 Nm or torque meaning that its "shameless" naturally aspired V8 unit makes the car sprint from 0 to 62 mph in 4.3 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 199 mph.
All this performance comes as a result after a long list of modifications that include fitting the Edo Mercedes C63 AMG with a new exhaust system and exhaust headers, high-flow catalytic converters, a sports air filter and a remaped ECU. The stainless steel exhaust system features butterfly valves ad 700 mm exhaust flaps.
Pricing details for the Edo Mercedes C63 AMG performance package were not released.
Edo Competition press release :
to hell with modesty … the mid-sized monster causes a stir!
Experiencing this exceptional vehicle on the road even surpasses what it promises on paper. The latest generation of the AMG C-Class offers a perfect blend of unrivalled performance and expressive styling.
Remarkable comfort, sporty manners and long distance capability are not mutually exclusive qualities for this car.
Power in abundance and unbridled V8 goodness are provided by edo competition.
The verdict was unanimous: 457 horsepower and 600 Nm (442 ft-lb) are not enough. A newly developed high-performance exhaust system, exhaust headers, high-flow catalytic converters, new air filters and a recalibrated ECU (including top speed governor removal) boost these numbers to an impressive 555 horsepower and 680 Nm (501 ft-lb). As a matter of principle, all recalibrations done by edo competition are verified on the dynamometer to document the true power output.
The facts about the exceptional edo C 63: 6.3 liter naturally-aspirated V8 engine, 408 kW (555 hp), 680 Nm (501 ft-lb) of torque, 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.3 seconds, top speed: 199 mph – there’s no better way to sum up the capabilities of the edo C 63!
The high-performance exhaust featuring butterfly valves is as aurally impressive as it is advanced, monitoring the exhaust backpressure in real-time. The accompanying controller is programmable and the integrated 70 mm exhaust flaps open at a predetermined level of backpressure. The advantage of this system is that it provides a good amount of torque at low revs without restricting the maximum power at the top end. The high-flow exhaust system is made from 100% stainless steel and the stock-like dual exhaust tips underscore the expressive styling.
To provide superior levels of grip, edo competition offers exclusive wheel/tire combinations. Using a new wheel design the C 63 was equipped with a set of ultra-lightweight 19 in. sport wheels shod in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires. Front: 235/35 19, Rear: 265/30 19
As with all edo competition models, we set no limit to our customers’ imaginations. Special interiors or lavish leather upholstery, individual requests are accommodated and executed with quality.
All modifications are carried out exclusively at edo competition Motorsport GmbH in Ahlen.
