Below are a couple of pics and a vid of a dyno run that was taken 2 weeks ago. Don't mind the stock numbers of 331whp. You can hear my voice at the end saying "that can't be", LOL!!! It was done on a Mustang dyno and with the wrong dyno settings set on the car. On a dynojet and with the correct settings with my stock wheels, power should be around between 370-385whp stock

Love those cars. I followed one for a little while on I-85 last week. They look a lot better in person.

Let's stand back for a minute and realize this: even if he is getting 370-385 hp at the wheels, that's TERRIBLE for a 6.3 liter V8. A car of this caliber should be making at least 100 hp per liter. I mean, a stock Corvette has a 6.0 liter V8 that does 400 hp. 370 is just disappointing in a car as expensive as this one.

A stock 05-07 corvette does not make 400whp. Maybe the 08 with the LS3, but that car only makes 430 at the crank. The C63 makes 451 at the crank. Trust me this car is faster than a corvette. I eat corvettes all the time with my 415whp supercharged 350Z, and this C63 pulls on me in 1st-3rd all day long maybe even 4th but we never get to that gear. I know this is my first post here, so sorry if I offend anyone. I just can't sit by and watch while someone bash a C63 AMG when they drive a Fit. TOMA!!!

First of all, I would like to thank my friend Steven that drives a Fit for posting a link up to this in the forum that I'm always on...

I'm the actual owner of this C63...and I'm not really going to rip on Burbio about this post of his, or maybe...

I had a friend of mine make a comment on this stating and I quote ---> "wow one of the FIT guys is ripping on the AMG LOL, what an idiot doesn't know the diff between manufacturer reported HP and dyno #'s"

I really don't need to say anything after that...But you know what? Burbio, you stated that a stock vette has a 6.0 liter that does 400hp, right? Wow you can read the brochure, LOL!!! Doesn't that line remind you of the Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift movie, when the white guy in the beginning of the movie was talking about his Viper that has like 500hp, and then Shawn replied back saying "wow you can read the brochure" LOL!!!

Seriosly Burbio, you need to know the difference between what the "brochure" says, which is at the crank and what it actually does to the wheels...

In all of the 70+ comments that were made about my car on the Supra forums, not one of them mentioned anything about being disappointed about my 6.3 liter V8 C63 making between 370-385hp to the wheels. You know why? Because again the Supra guys know the difference between what the brochure says and what it actually puts down hp wise to the wheels.

Btw I have already eaten a C6 Vette for lunch...and I have 4 doors with lots of space for groceries in the back, hehe...

Thanks Gabe for backing me up about this topic...That's what friends are for...

And I will also like to thank all of the Fit owners that have made comments and complimets on the car so far.

Wow I was mentioned in another forum?! It's almost like I'm a celebrity!

Regardless of what the brochure says about numbers, you can't argue that the dino for this AMG said 330 as stated in the post. I was giving the guy the benefit of the doubt and took his word that his car did 370-385. Even if that's true, it's pretty under-powered for such a large engine. That's all I was saying. So hate on! If you think you can get me mad by insulting a post, I say go for it!

You a celebrity? Yeah a celebrity of the biggest idiot on this thread that doesn't know anything about what he's talking about...And about me insulting you? I'm not insulting you. I'm just putting the facts out there. It's that easy!!!

I have to agree with TunedC63.... But before I get into facts and the fact that you have NO IDEA what the difference is between power to the wheels and power to the crank are..... I am going to start off by highlighting a comment you made......

A car of this caliber should be making at least 100 hp per liter.

Ummmmm...... I have never heard that before in my life...... So what your really trying to say in your little "theory" is..... IF the car has a 6.0 liter engine, that it should be making 600hp @ 100hp per liter, correct???? Than that means that the Nissan 350Z should be coming with 350hp instead of 306hp??? or the C63 should be coming with 630hp??? I feel I have been ripped off if your "theory" is right...... And according to your "theory" that means that the 1993 Mazda RX-7 with a 1.3L and 80 cubic inch engine, should only come with 130hp instead of 255hp??? And can you explain that one to me... I mean I am pretty confused on that..... I really hope you can help me out on that one.....

But regardless on all that.... Let me clear something up for you, since you dont know the difference between wheel hp and hp to the crank. IT'S REALLY BASIC..... Crank HP is the true horsepower produced by the motor. The HP that your engine produces to the tranny (transmission, for those of us that are slower than others). For example... The C63 puts out 451hp to the crank, the Nissan 350Z puts out 306hp and the RX-7 puts out 255hp. Now that is all power to the crank, actual hp produced by the motor (dont want to lose anyone here.....).... NOW..... Your WHP or lb-ft of torque (Wheel Horsepower) is what you actually put down with your wheels. For example, the C63 produces 451hp but 443 lb-ft of torque and 268 ib-ft of torque for the 350..... Its called Drivetrain Power Loss... For the most part with alot of cars, there is always a loss of power when comparing the whp to the actual hp. If your still confused on this..... Google is an amazing tool to use before opening your mouth on something you know nothing about......

Oh and this comment..... LOL

370 is just disappointing in a car as expensive as this one...

LOL...... You got to be kidding me...... I am not even going to go off on that one... I have better things to do with my time......

And the sad part is... I'm a FEMALE and know more about this than you....
