VRtuned MERCEDES C450 AMG TUNING BOX DYNO AND VIDEO TEST
Read it on our blog here
The new Mercedes C450 AMG packs a punch with its 3.0L turbocharged engine producing 362bhp and 480nm of torque. We released our ECU Tuning Box kit which takes it up 80bhp and 100nm of torque over stock! But as all customers say, “show me the proof!” The dyno done at Corr Performance is on a Dyno Dynamics AWD dynamometer. We rate the tuning box gains at 80bhp. Typical drive train loss is about 20-25% for AWD. At 20% this would put the wheel horsepower gains at around 60 horsepower. As noted on the product this is using higher 98 octane in the UK. This car was tested in Lousiana, USA and most likely had 93octane pump fuel. Its peak all wheel horsepower gains were at 40awhp. Several variables can account for different dyno readings such as air temperature and especially fans creating a driving like scenario for the intercooler and air intake system. Our customer who operates C450AMG.com recently purchased one and did an independent review on the product. His full review includes the benefits of the driving performance, what to look out for when installing, and his end result of this purchase. From his review, he writes:
“In terms of performance the dyno results are in and three things are prevalent. First, it looks like the Tune learns from itself, providing better results the more you run it. I ran it on the dyno 3 times and each provided better results. I plan on running it one more time next week to see if i get even more out of the car. The second is that the internal stats lie… Meaning the numbers shown on the digital display differ the results of the dyno not a huge surprise here, but the digital display actually performed worse with the tune on which was surprising. The third is that the tune actually provides some incredible numbers below are the videos of the digital display as well as well as the dyno results.”
