Brabus has revealed the new Brabus Rocket 900, based on the Mercedes-AMG E 63 S 4Matic+. This powerful car is built at Brabus's high-tech facility in Bottrop, Germany, which specializes in making high-performance engines.
A Bigger, Stronger 4.5L V8 Engine
The Rocket 900 uses a twin-turbo V8 engine with more power than the standard model. Brabus increased the engine size to 4.5 liters by boring out the engine block to 84mm. They added larger pistons, a precision-balanced billet crankshaft, and eight special piston rods, increasing the stroke length to 100mm.
New Turbocharging System for More Power
Brabus also built a better turbo system. It now includes two high-performance turbochargers with bigger compressor units and stronger core parts that help the engine produce more power.
They also added Brabus BoostExtra adapters. When the driver lifts off the gas pedal, these give the car a cool blow-off sound. A stainless-steel exhaust system reduces back pressure, helping the car breathe better.
Better Air and Fuel Supply
The intake system was redesigned to give the engine more fresh air. At the same time, high-pressure pumps deliver the right amount of fuel. The engine is topped off with a stylish red carbon engine cover.
