Ran into a C63 last night.
Not sure what is going on with the transmissions of the C63 AMG repliers but my '13 with the MCT trans has no issues when in sport, sport + or manual mode as far as shift times. I know that the '08 through '11 had a regular torque converter trans and were slower in the upshift and down shift though. Having owned an '09 CPO and a new '12 ISF I can say that as great as they are, my '13 P31 C31 is , without major mods, in another playing field. Will an ISF with all the mods and especially with NO2 equal it? Maybe. But for the most part probably not. No offense intended to all of you ISF owners but having owned both (and still my C63) I speak from my own experience. I hope no one takes offense to my post as I still lurk on this site and still think highly of the ISF.
, once modded though those C63's are damn impressive! The ISF aren't slouches either, as proven by member Drok149 with just header/exhaust/tune on street tire, it's a solid 11 second ride trapping 120mph. Anyways, always have much respect for the C63 especially the the updated 2012+ with the nice subtle exterior updates and the much nicer interiors.

A 2013 stock P31 C63 AMG makes 481 BHP right? Considering ISFs with I/H/E and tune have made ~420 WHP, I think they've equaled it already. It's another thing if you're talking about a modded C63 I suppose.

don't mean to thread jack but relating back to the last comment yes you're right a stock C63 vs a bolt on ISF will give you the below results:
Really becomes a drivers race.

I ran against my buddy C63 the other day. I was surprise I could hang with him. First run we did from a roll 40 on, I was in third gear, sport mode and manual. He would pass me by half a car length until getting close to triple digits that he would start pulling away. By the end he would have 1 car length ahead of me. I have ppe headers,joez exhaust,hps intake with toms filter and RR-Racing tune. His setup was full bolt on and a tune as well so not a stock c63.
Of course all this was done in Mexico...
