Southwest (phoenix) LET custom dyno tune interest

How many people would be interested in a flash tune or even a custom dyno tune from LET? They are willing to come to the Phoenix area, and if you're interested in their custom tune, a forum member has been able to secure a dyno dynamics machine at a very reputable shop for the tuning session (DynoComp). If you just need a flash tune, LET will be here so you have zero down time by avoiding having to send in your ECU.

The tentative date is March 21. There are currently 4 confirmed and 1 more almost confirmed who have signed up. We will probably have to cap it at 8-10, so if you are interested, post here or PM me to let me know.

As per their website, LET currently tunes the following Mercedes vehicles:

C230K, C320, C32, C55, CL55, CL600, CLS55, CLK55, E55, S600, S55, SL55, SLK230K, SLK32, SLK55

For more info, their website is www.LETmotorsports.com

i think tunes work better on FI, but you should still see a benefit from having one on your N/A.

I am told that you can expect to see around "20-ish" horsepower to the wheels

Agreed, timing and some fuel on an NA car still gets some power..
