The hand built M178 V8 Biturbo engine from AMG is a powerful motor from the factory proving it is very capable on and off the track, but even a perfect machine can benefit from finer tuning. Using the latest calibration technology and countless hours of testing, Weistec was able to achieve massive gains in both horsepower and torque through out the powerband. The Weistec M178 ECU Upgrade provides 118 wheel horse power and 134 wheel torque at lower RPM’s along with substantial gains in the mid and high range, making the power delivery far superior from the factory calibration.
You guess we don't get what? The gentleman above made a joke "whatever sells right"
I guess you can't take the joke back when we said LOL with a driving symbol.
That is, rather than having to ship my part away and get it programmed etc. I would prefer some sort of plug in unit that achieves similar results that I could simply unplug before taking back in to the dealer etc.
so this is just an ECU tune there is no exhaust pipe replacement correct?
If it is just an ECU that is STUPID IMPRESSIVE gains! Now that is VALUE for your money. Congrats WOW. (Until you blow up the motor, then you better have it flashed back ASAP! LOL)
Can dealer find out about ECU flash? or you risking factory warranty ?
Weistec tunes are completely un detectable by the dealership factory tools. The only way they would know is if you told the dealer or they actually took the car out and raced the two!!
The boost level is not disclosed by Weistec however, a way to take a look and find out exactly what it makes would be running a boost gauge, or looking at the parameters with a scan tool hooked up to the vehicle to see what it is making.
