Speedriven Standalone for CLS55 AMG - Pricing Announced
Speedriven made Mercedes-Benz tuning history recently, when it became the first tuner to successfully integrate a standalone engine control unit (ECU) into a modern Mercedes-Benz. This week, Speedriven is pushing the envelope even further. The company has announced an integrated standalone solution for another hugely popular Mercedes-Benz tuning platform: the W211 E55 AMG.
“The CAN communication between the dash and the body systems is very similar,” explains Speedriven’s Marcin Kogut. “Especially between the E and the SL, which use a lot of the same hardware. We knew that from the V12 swaps we did in the past. That made the E the most obvious next step for standalone development.”
As shown in Speedriven’s previous baseline dyno and demonstration drive videos, the standalone ECU offers W211 E55 AMG tuners complete control over the car’s systems. At the same time, tuners will be able to custom tailor launch control strategies and drivability using features that were never available with the stock ECU. Those include both flex fuel support and boost by gear!
Speedriven’s standalone ECU PKG is available for $7995, and is compatible W211 E55 AMG, C219 CLS55 AMG, and R230 SL55 AMG. The PKG includes a Syvecs S8 ECU, custom harness and connectors, and wide-bands. It usually ships within 2-3 weeks.
