It is interesting to see the MBZ went back to a n/a V8. My C43 is a V8 at 310 hp and 310 trq. But with the addition of a brabus SC it will be 476 hp, and I'll be $15K poorer.

edit: my bad i ment crank

Since when did the M-B 4.3 liter V8 put out 310 hp to the wheels? It's rated at 302 hp at the crank.

ops fixed the typo, but with K&N filters, custom larger air inlets, plus removed these restricters that covered the inlet leads to the increased. Also MBZ under rates their AMG vehicles, each are hand build and leads t +/- a pony or two

They had 3 seperate MBs and all had more issues than my old ass Honda. Benz can build nice mechanicals but they can't get shit right when it comes to electroncis. Their quality has gone way down and there are plenty of stats to prove it. I read in some magazine they had to recall a bunch of E classes because they couldn't figure out how to get the navigation to work. That is ****ing sad.
