Is there anyone here w/ a chipped c36 ?
I can't seem to find any owner that has installed one, and the club202 forum is pretty much all nonpower mods as far as the 36 in concerned.
I called Upsolute as they list the euro-c36 as a car they chip/re-flash, but they never returned my calls ....FTL !
Thanks !
PS- My google searched listed a few companies,but after browsing their site, once again no 36 application.
It would be great to get at least another 15hp via timing, then another few w/ the exhaust/CAI.

I know for a fact upsolute still chips 'em. I had an upsolute rep chip my c280's (the i6 motors) two years ago, and they still had the i6 motor from the 280's and the c36's on their site listed. i think they removed the i6 280's recently because theyre old, it doesnt mean they dont have the codes for them anymore. they still have the c36 listed

Bother, it made a big diff in my c280. went from 194 hp to 217hp and 199 tq to 219! the gains for N/A motors is typically 20 hp give or take 5 hp. so 20 hp in a 200hp car is a noticeable diff whereas itll be more difficult to feel a diff in a near 300hp car if you add 20 hp, its proportionally a smaller gain.
My c280 had some other stuff done to it and it was totally faster than a stck one. i kept up with all kinds of cars a stck c280 shouldnt have kept up with.
one of the noticable perks was better gas mileage! i got 31.06 mpg on a 290 mile trip from atlanta to savannah, ga. I was really happy with those numbers. you can typically expect a +2 mpg increase in any N/A car you chip. turboed and s/c cars get more gains (hp AND gas mileage)
