Terry - I am jealous man, good job. I have a few friends waiting for the finish product. I hope my c350 with tune can still hang :-(

Off-topic: How is this car's setup compared to the f30 328i turbo setup? I have another friend on the fence between the 328i M sport and the c300 sport. Your tuning potential on both cars is definitely affecting his purchase decision lol

They are roughly equivalent at least in terms of straight line performance once tuned. The BMW feels more sporty while the MB is a little softer. But I'm probably not telling you anything he doesn't already know.

That's awesome. I'm definitely in for one once my car arrives in March.

The C200 Brabus tune mentioned before.... I'm pretty surr it does effect warranty. It shortens it s bit for the engine only. Also, I though peak torque was moved from 1800 to 2000 not 1200 to 2000. I haven't seen a graph though.

Brabus has its own warranty.

I just want numbers from c300 on my c250. I hope it would be easy.

You've got that right Terry.
Keep up the good work.

man i had jb in my n55 and it was the best tune i ever had. I got it once someone told me to switch tried it out and it was whack compared to JB so i went down to valley and bought it again to have it installed at the shop. it was probably the best tune for the 335i. Hopefully you work on the new C63 lol. These people are lucky to have burger tuning.

Just as a little update our production harnesses are finally in and testing to this point has been flawless. The same harness is compatible with the C300 & C400 models. We'll be working on the installation manuals today and expect to ship any pending orders Monday.

Awesome news, Terry! So looking forward to this. Will stage 1 be upgradable to JB4, if it ever evolves for this platform?

Unfortunately, we're not currently offering any tuners within California.

In the 30whp & 40wtq range on the base maps with all connectors installed. If you skip the connector used to advance timing, which is a real PITA to reach, then around 15whp & 40wtq gained.

Awesome. Can't wait, this will be my first mod. What about an intake, any interest there?

Around 40whp and 50whp for the C400. With both models we expect further map development to add a little more power down the road.

We're evaluating a C300 intake design currently!

Terry, I just picked up a new C300 and did some reading about your company/tuning, etc. Sounds like you're able to pick up at least 30hp/tq over the stock tune so far? Are you just bumping up the boost a little and adding some timing?

Are these tuners detectable by dealers at all (does the computer count how many flashes are done, etc) or no?

Did you say you ran a 14.1 stock 1/4 mile time in your C300? What was your 60ft? Is is AWD or RWD? I thought I read online they ran mid 14's or so in stock form. Is it possible to get the car into the high 13's on pump gas with just a tune?

I have a tuner for my Challenger and it works great, no issues in 4 years, seems to me that provided the tuner you're using knows what he/she's doing then you should be fine.

Thanks for any info!

Terry, I have the stage1 and after installing the pedal commander, the engine was shaking a bit, and hesitating. I had to disconnect BMS - the pedal commander alone is proving similar results. Can they co-exist?

Thanks

Just received the stage 1 for C300. Can someone who have installed this kindly snap few photos of exactly where the connection B, C and D? I was only able to figure the connection A.
