The new year has only just begun and there are already tuning firms out there ready to set the bar up as high as they can. For their part, German tuner Inden Design has created a new kit for the beautiful Mercedes SLS AMG that leaves the exterior and interior changes on the wayside to focus on performance instead.

Usually we like a little aesthetic tweak here and there, but we're not going to complain if Inden Design wants to put all of their eggs in one performance basket. The tuning company made significant changes to both the engine's ECU and exhaust system, adding sportskats and manifold, to boost the 6.2 liter V8 engine's output by 52 HP. This leaves the sports car with 623 HP and 479 lb-ft of torque, up from 571 HP.

And that minor aesthetic tweak we talked about, Inden Design did take care of that with a new set of wheels that also serve to distribute power evenly to the asphalt. The new set of 20" wheels have been wrapped in 265/30-20 tires at the front axle and 295/30-20 at the rear axle.
