Mercedes C63 AMG Dunlop Wimmer RS Edition

Mercedes C63 AMG Dunlop Wimmer RS  Edition

The recent project from Wimmer RS is this C63 AMG Dunlop-Performance with its 308km/h (190mph).
The Mercedes C63 AMG Dunlop Wimmer RS edition is powered by the same standard engine but with some ecu modifications, a K&N sports air filter and modified intake tubes.

Accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in the Wimmer RS Mercedes C63 AMG Dunlop Performance takes only 4.4 seconds (0 to 120 mph in 12 seconds) while top speed is electronically limited to 190 mph (308 Km/h). This is all possible because the engine provides now 540 HP instead of 487.

In order to optimize the contact between vehicle and asphalt without restrictions in racing sports and on the roads, Wimmer RS has employed a KW3 Club sports coilover chassis.

Wimmer Press Release:

Again and again, the Solingen car tuning experts of Wimmer RS develop high speed vehicles with best performance. The recent tuning action was baptized C63 AMG Dunlop-Performance. This C63 AMG Dunlop-Performance with its 190 mph (308 kmph, high speed cut) is as fast as a sports car.

With its modified electronic engine command, the exhaust manifold, its improved suction tubes and the K&N sports air filter, the engine performance is driven up to 540 hp (serial power 487 hp) by Wimmer RS. Within only 4.4 seconds the C63 sprints from 0 up to 60 mph, 12.6 seconds to 120 mph. At 190 mph (308 kmph) the speed is cut off by an electronic speed limiter.
In order to optimize the contact between vehicle and asphalt without restrictions in racing sports and on the roads, Wimmer RS has employed a KW3 Club sports coilover chassis.

Racing engineering dominates the genes of the Dunlop tire Sportmaxx GT, in 235/35-19 on the front and 265/35-19 on the rear axis. These tires warrant for excellent high speed driving stability, also in speed regions over 190 mph (300 kmph).

The Wimmer RS C63 AMG Dunlop-Performance took part in the this year Tuner’s Grand Prix on the Hockenheimring and made a runner-up finish with its Dunlop high performance tires. The Wimmer C63 AMG Dunlop-Performance has also been invited to the big acceleration and breaking tests „0-300-0“ in Papenburg/Germany.
