VÄTH has released an upgrade program for the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Black Series. It was only last week when we talked about TIKT's upgrade that increased output to 606 HP (446 kW) and now VÄTH has taken the hot coupe to a new level. The standard V8 6.3-liter generates 517 HP (380 kW) but the notorious German tuner was able to increase output to 756 HP (556 kW) and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) through a series of modifications.
On the list we have a new water-intercooler system, fuel cooler and a flow-optimized exhaust system with a bespoke exhaust manifold joined to a sport-catalytic system. Thanks to these tweaks, the C63 AMG Coupe Black Series needs only 3.6 seconds to perform the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) run on its way to a top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h).
Press release:
The striking designation „Black Series“ has always stood for high performance of Mercedes-Benz AMG vehicles.
With 380 kW / 517 hp and maximum torque of 620 Nm the C 63 AMG Coupé „Black Series“ is no exception to this maxim. If that is not enough, one has to set out to VÄTH or at least to establish contact there. Extremely renowned tuner has received such a vehicle for refining and the result is an impressive masterpiece of VÄTH engineering.
The core of the refining is the engine conversion into compressor-system „V63 Supercharged“ with VÄTH water-intercooler system, fuel cooler and und corresponding fine-tuning of motor electronic as well as increase of Vmax. The flow-optimised exhaust system consists of a special exhaust manifold, which is joined to sport-catalytic system (for export only). An X-Pipe with sport rears, which can be activated by valve control or touch of a button, rounds off the installation without tailpipes. All this generates breathtaking performance of 556kW = 756 hp and 800 Nm from 6.208 cm³ displacement, which lets the driver’s body tremble with adrenaline. With an impressive acceleration to 100 km/h in 3, 6 seconds and, with corresponding tyre approval, Vmax of 350 km/h, 49.310, - Euro plus VAT are to get over Investment.
This pure power is useless without effective traction, so VÄTH installed a special model of the complete chassis V63 Supercharged. As a result not only hardness and height between 20-65mm are adjustable, but also compression and rebound stages can be modified when installed. Thus, optimal and safe handling combined with high comfort on the road, as well as on the racetrack is possible. To ensure so important road grip, in-house three-pieced forced wheels with tires in size of 9x20 inches with 265/30-20 tire equipment on the front or 11x20 inches with 305/25-20 at the rear are fitted. The brake is also an important element for heading traction and handling, which is protected by VÄTH high performance brake system with 405mm brake disks on the front axle and steel braided lines.
VÄTH has performed only small modifications on the aggressive sport optics of white V63 Coupé Supercharged Black Series with aerodynamic package. A Black radiator grill without star and previously mentioned 20 - inch forced wheels in black with elegant accents round off the perfect look.
Inside the driver keeps the situation under control through sport steering wheels in leather/leather design (optionally with carbon or noble wood applications). In addition he confronts with strenuous speeds via combination instrument with VÄTH-Supercharged-speedometer extension to 400 km/h.
