The fast-revving 6.3-liter V8 becomes even more powerful with the BRABUS B63 S
performance kit. The conversion consists of two sport air filters, free-flow
metal catalysts and newly programmed engine electronics. The tuning kit bumps
power output of the engine from standard 517 by 30bhp. Simultaneously peak
torque grows from 630 to 650 Nm at 5,400 rpm.
Equipped with the BRABUS B63 S kit, the sprint time from rest to 100 km/h is
shortened to 4.3 seconds and in combination with the BRABUS V/max unit top speed
jumps to up to 320 km/h, depending on the speed rating of the selected
tire/wheel combination.
To transfer the increased power to the road with as little slip as possible
BRABUS offers a limited-slip differential with a locking rate of 40 percent for
the E 63 AMG.
Minimizing aerodynamic lift is essential in a car as fast as this one. The
BRABUS designers went into the wind tunnel to develop aerodynamic-enhancement
components that are as stunning as they are effective. These components are
manufactured from clear-coated carbon fiber. The production front apron of sedan
and wagon can be upgraded with a spoiler lip. The aerodynamics of the sedan's
rear can be further improved with a diffuser and a rear spoiler.
On the front axle, BRABUS aluminum sport fenders with lateral air outlets
improve venting of the wheel houses and add a decidedly sporty note to the car's
appearance.
BRABUS also offers custom-tailored tire/wheel combinations for all E63 models.
They are available with diameters of 18, 19 and 20 inches. The largest
homologated version features Monoblock VI, E, Q or S wheels in size 9Jx20 on the
front axle and in sizes 9.5Jx20 or 10.5Jx20 in back. They are fitted with
Pirelli or YOKOHAMA high-performance tires in size 245/30 ZR 20 in front and up
to size 295/25 ZR 20 on the rear axle.
