Renntech tunes the new Merc E63S AMG

AWD is a hell of a thing.

Why do they claim 773HP / 778TQ when it's an 80HP / 80TQ gain?

Is the car so under rated that it's actually 693HP stock?

The article is not clear but their website explains better--- thats crank hp/tq translation using a 14% drivetrain estimated loss from their whp/wtq numbers post tune.

I found this whp/wtq graph

I never got to dyno it again, we ran out of time and then I have not driven the car since as its parked at my other house. Im gonna see what I can do next week to relfash to stock, dyno, then flash again but alot of shops are not open full time next week.

The car feels very strong and thats good for me but I want to see the empirical data too. Ill bet its circa 70-80 hp gains in the sweet spot ranges but the peak hp wont be all too amazing IMHO.

Looking forward to hearing more. There’s something really compelling about high performance sedans; I’ve always loved them. Probably my next purchase.

Btw, have a great Holiday season my friend!
