After installing the AMS Alpha 7 kit + some other goodies.  Car dyno'd at 621 wheel horsepower and over 730 wheel torque.  

 

Here's what the package claimed on their shop car.

  • 0-60mph: 2.85 seconds
  • 0-100mph: 6.7 seconds
  • 1/4 mile: 10.8 @ 129mph
  • Standing 1/2 mile: 156.9mph

 

 

Holy fuck...

A car that's almost as fast as my cbr1000r, basically a fucking Superbike. That's insane

Clint im in love!  I just ordered the GLE 63 AMG coupè after talking with you about the G 63 or the GLE!  GLE def drives much much better and feels a lot more sporty!  I havent even recived the car yet but I am def looking to upgrade it by either sending to Brabus or do an AMS!  So the question is how do you like your new AMS tune?

Nice choice.  I fell in love with the GLE too, especially the coupe.  Brabus you will come out of pocket wayyyyyyy more..  AMS is a great company that knows what to do with turbo cars.  Their track record with GTR's speaks for itself.  A lot of guys with this motor (M157) have done the Alpha tunes and I have never seen any bad press from it.  I wouldnt have done it any other way, the car pulls like a freight train...

Awesome!!!  Ill def look into it!  And yes the GTR's do speak for themselves!  My dad has an alpha 9 GTR and god I dont think I have ever been scared to drive a car before, but after getting in that thing I was so scared putting my foot down for the first time getting on the highway!  All I could say is I think i need a GTR for my self oneday!  Its just thats its a 2 door and as much as i love a 2 door it is convinent for me when Im with people :(

Yeah dude cause $250k of cars for you isn't enough, let's send it off to Brabus. Aren't you like 12?

Wait so what do you do for work lol. Or did your family pay it for you?

Been saving up for years now and paid 8.5k for down payment, now I need to pay insurance and gas and my parents are helping me out with the rest of the car price. I got it for $21.5k out the door and if your implying that I'm spoiled or whatever I'm an honors student with all AP classes and my gpa is 3.6-3.7

Yea it's my first car lol, it's also the first car I've ever driven with a manual transmission so I'm still learning but the car is super different compared to my moms sub and my dads truck, it also has a certified pre owned warranty for 4 years so I'm good with maintenance, I appreciate the kind words Though :)
