Yep me tooI do like Brabus but even they can't make the current crop of Merc's look pretty.
I'm surprised they haven't got more out of it like they used to do with other models in the past.
I'm sure things like turbos, fuelling, mapping, cooling, internals, etc etc is beefed up but considering the likes of the 5.5 V8 biturbo AMG's put out around 550bhp, it puts it into perspective how far the smaller engines are being pushed.
I always prefer larger engines that are less stressed than something running closer to its limits.
Those marketing dynos are great...my i8 was running 365 from a 1.5
