450 ECU Tuning Results

OP can be found here: https://mbworld.org/forums/gl-class-...ml#post6440367

After tuning GL450 3.0L V6 Biturbo we saw huge gains of +124wTq @3600rpm and +106wHp @4600rpm to all 4 wheels on a 4×4 Mainline Dyno. An unmodified GL450 running CA91 premium pump fuel was dyno tested. Gains can be seen on the pictured graph below, the unmodified Baseline (Blue) vs OE Tuning ECU Tune (Red).

Power and performance ECU upgrade from OE Tuning includes:

Increased Boost Targets (16psi)
Fuel Adjustment
Improved Throttle response
Top Speed Limiter removal
Raised Torque Limits

Tune price is $1195 and does require the ECU be removed and sent in for modification. Please contact sales@oetuning.com or call +1-818-574-5075 to order.

Is there is anything preventing these same numbers in a C400?

HI,

Can I drive to your place for the installation?

C400 and C450 ECU Tune

We expect same results from tuning C400. We are looking for a local SoCal car that would like to confirm dyno results for C400, C450 and C300 tunes.

Yes. We tested the tune to operate within safe operating guidelines before public release. We can install the tune at our shop in Huntington Beach while you wait. Please call +1-818-574-5075 to make an appointment.

2014 E63S; AMS 100 octane ECU dyno tune; EDOK TCU tune; BB intakes; sprintbooster
Hmm ... Initial vendors were identifying a much more conservative tune

This is a big bump

How safe can this be on the drive train and engine?

From testing we have seen the engine operate safely once tune is installed. No adverse effect to the transmission either.

Is it possible to tune say only 50% instead of going all the way?

Also, what is the effect on fuel consumption?

Sure, we can always tune for less power. On our performance tunes for gasoline vehicles we typically see fuel economy improvement of 1-4mpg.

Could someone simply purchase a second ECU and then proceed to sending it over to you for tuning? In that case, the vehicle wouldn't be out of commission for however long shipping and your tuning takes. Not sure what an ECU costs - I know for my 2016 Acura MDX, an ECU is $300 so I'm guessing it can't be $1000 for the W205 one...


Is there a reason why a second ECU wouldn't work? Is it hard to remove?

Finally, how would a tune like this affect warranty? Would it be something they would find out about and void my warranty as soon as they put the vehicle on their machine? Would they only deny warranty claims that they can prove are caused by the higher boost, etc. of a tune?

Finally, if a person has two ECU's, could one simply revert back to stock before going to the dealer for warranty work?

So many questions, lol...

Remove ECU and send in via overnight shipping for fastest turn around. All ECUs that arrive before 12 noon are guaranteed to be sent back same day as arrival. If you are located close to a flash dealer location that has bench flashing tools then you can have the tune installed at the dealer location. http://www.oetuning.com/dealer-locator

Sure, you will need to buy a replacement ECU through the dealership and have it coded to your car before we tune it. Prices are $1400-2100 usually for MB ECUs.

It really depends on a few factors. What exactly happened that you need your ECU repaired? Can you bring car and ECU into the shop in HB?

Because they are measuring at the wheels not the crankshaft.

Actually these power figures are pretty close considering an average 18-20% drive-train loss for an all-wheel drive vehicle.
The increase in performance on the street after is huge.

Popcorn? This is what was seen at all 4 wheels on a Mainline 4x4 Dyno. The 450 V6 biturbo platform was street and dyno tested thoroughly over a 3-4 week development and testing period.
