C300 2016 Tune Options

Hello,
I own a 2016 C300 and wanted to see what the different options were in terms of tuning.

at the moment this is the best bang for your buck. I installed the dinan a few months ago and it for sure makes the car a little more fun to drive. There are a few other tunes out there but are almost 3-4x the cost for almost similar results.

I have that unit enroute. Typically I won't risk a warranty issue with a an ECU flash but the Dinan unit seems plenty safe and easily removable for service work.

Already serviced my car once at the dealer, and removing the unit takes all of 5 minutes.

There's sport, sport+ and then race. I keep mine on Sport+ which if i recall increases the boost by 3 psi. What I like about it you configure it once(which is really easy to do from your phone) and you don't have to touch it ever.

So it does not revert back to Sport + after a restart if you had it in another mode?

The dinan sport+ mode is completely from the cars sports+ mode please remember that. You change the settings on the dinan from your phone app. Depending on what setting you choose on the dinan it stays in that setting till you access it again to change.

I ordered this and it will be in next week. For 300 bones I figured what the heck. It cost me over 500 (mostly labor) to install a 17% reduction pulley on my R53 MINI. And that was all about boost as well.
