Anyone using the N54tech tuner on their 2015 C300?
Anyone using a N54tech tuner on the 2015 C300? I've used tuners on other vehicles in the past with great results, just wondering if anyone has any firsthand experience using one on the new C300?
Their dyno charts claim some pretty big gains (35-40hp/tq) over stock. Looks like they bump up the boost on the turbo 3-5psi or so and adjust timing/fuel settings/parameters, etc.

Cool man! Is it the one that has four connections under the hood?
Let me know how it goes with the install and the before/after power difference. The dyno charts are a little confusing, they had 3 of them up on the website and they all had different readings, not sure which was what. Looks like it should be good for at least 20-25 hp though based on those charts.
I think these cars run mid/high 14's in stock form so if the tuner put it into the low 14's on pump gas that'd be pretty fast. I saw Terry at BMS did some testing with the tuner and running some E85 fuel and he got the car into the mid 13's (at least on the tuner readout, not an actual dragstrip). That's pretty impressive. Looks like they just bump up the boost on the turbo a little and adjust timing/fuel settings.
Keep us posted, interested to hear how it works!
