Opus Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S: hybrid monster with 952 hp

The four-door from Mercedes-AMG gets more combustion power and an increased torque limit. This means that a whopping 1,550 Nm is available on demand.

Opus Automotive is located in Nürburg directly at the Nürburgring. You have to have something to do with fast cars. You also have it - and you make fast cars even faster and more powerful.,

Torque limit increases, combustion engine power too

In this case, the choice fell on the most powerful AMG series model, the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4Matic+ E Performance. In addition to its endlessly long name, it also has an incredible amount of power and torque. Mercedes delivers the four-door with 843 hp and electronically limited 1,470 Nm of torque to customers. At Opus, the lines for the AMG are a little looser. New bits and bytes in the engine management system elicit 748 hp from the four-liter V8 with twin turbochargers. But Opus also keeps its hands off the electric motor. The unchanged 204 hp contributes to the fun.

In total, the AMG optimized by Opus has a system output of 952 hp. When it comes to torque, the tuner believes the entire package is capable of 1,550 Nm. But here, too, the electronics slow down prematurely so as not to overwhelm the mechanics.

Despite weighing more than 2.4 tons, the Opus Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4Matic+ E Performance sprints from zero to 100 km/h in 2.7 seconds - faster than most Opus Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4Matic+ E Performance can say. The 200 km/h mark falls after 8.55 seconds. A possible maximum speed is not mentioned.,

In addition to the engine tuning, which will be offered from October 2022, Opus is already working on a new exhaust system with flap control, which will make the V8 really hiss again and also conjure up some horsepower. The chassis configuration can also be influenced via an OBD module. When driving, the body sinks by 20 millimeters. If you park in front of the ice cream parlour, you can also set a lowering of 40 millimeters for show purposes.

Oh yeah, 952 hp isn't enough - it should be four digits here too. Also coming: The Opus men will probably want to break the 1,000 hp barrier in winter.,

Conclusion

So that the AMG GT can move its weight of over 2.4 tons even more dynamically, Tuner Opus has given it more combustion performance and raised the electronic torque limit. But Opus doesn't dare to use the electric motor either.
