Funny thing is on the way home i harassed the car and no CEL. I guess i will have to go back once i receive this update. Side note: Has anyone else received that CEL code? My time was 13.2 @ 106 mph and this was coasting down the remainder of the track. Sorry for the let down guys all i can do it get this update and head back another weekend.
Are you stage I or stage II ? When is the build date of your car? Is it a coupe or sedan?

Well that sucks...Please post back after you get the update. Maybe this explains what happened to the other guy that was going like 130 and his car went into limp mode.

I guess I am going to hold off on the down-pipes and tune until some of these nagging issues get sorted out. Would really like to know if this is Vendor Tune specific or MB-AMG software issues.

Hilarious that everything gets blamed on the EC tune. We drive a Mercedes - the stock cars out of the dealer have a ton of problems. If you want to avoid issues, buy a Toyota. Not taking anything away from AMR, but you can not compare the calibre of cars that Eurocharged works on vs AMR. The shop is filled with exotic and high end cars - I felt poor with my C43.

I got the tune done yesterday and all I can say is how impressed I am.

I've done 4 pulls to 120MPH - no limp mode, no CEL, no issues whatsoever. The car pulls effin HARD - and the power is much more available.. It is incredibly faster and very significantly noticeable! You can count on me to post videos with the Go Pro I got yesterday.

For now, here are some screenshots of the dyno







Here's a video of the car on a dyno:

Well for the price of $1,999 you better not have any issues sheesh. I want down-pipes too and I am not going to be spending $3000+ just on a tune, down-pipes & install. Those are prices you pay for a c63S which makes more power and is a real AMG vehicle.

I haven't seen any timeslips in the 11's from anyone with AMR tune and downpipes to justify that price. The Jury is still out on all of the vendors until we see some track times.

Impressive. Are you stock or do you have down-pipes too?

Have you ever gone past 130? It only happened to me whenever I went past the default speed governor (i.e. 135+ mph).

Guys please keep this in mind that this does NOT happen if i have a half tank or more in gas. This happened twice when i was below half a tank and i was on the car.

@18bora- I wont flash it back to stock before going to the dealer. I have my maintenance coming up as well so i will let them do that as well

@W205C43AMGCOUPE- Once i make the appointment with them i will of course let everyone know.

@Gungaslow- I am currently stage 1. Car is a coupe. Build date not to sure. I have to look into that

@DameMD- It definitely does suck. But nothing detrimental. I will definitely go back to the track. This is MB-Amg software i am sure.

@Threefirs-NICE numbers. I am sure she hauls!

Did you switch to the AMR tune? If you did that would be the reason everything is running perfectly

Its like every comment you make stupid.

Going with a brand that doesn't give you check engine lights and makes more power is the right thing to do.

But you keep doing it your way, with your $800 tune.

"Its a race car, im suppose to work on it every day and have check engine lights"

@Blacked Out E63- LMAO every comment stupid yet reading owns you as you do not comprehend when i ask you questions you do not feel the need to answer too. Honestly where are you located so we can meetup and do a run between my tune and yours? Answer me that. And really? Need a Honda for what i look to spend? Yet my car is modded and doesn't have a tune only on it... Sure thing. Or will you keep the **** talking going back and forth like a little punk keyboard warrior?

@Getmercd-When did you and Blacked out E63 start blowing one another.

You two crack me up. How about either one of you two meet up with me and we run? Yall talk so much **** but cant back it up :cra zy:

I wonder who really looks like the clown here...

It is one thing to poke at one another and a an entirely different thing to make a degrading, immature comment.

You and the other EC guys are the ones with the CELs, not us lol so relax there guy. We are proud supporters of what works and don't have these issues to relate too. I think that in itself shows who the clowns are

@getmercd how can I place blame towards Eurocharged when I spoke to Jerry and he told me the cause to this issue. Other than this happening there is no problems with the cars tune. I trust EC and that's another reason why I went with them along with their rep.

And no not a degreading comment or maybe you're getting a bit butt hurt now since I said something to your smartass comment? Don't get offended now bud.

Like I said to both you and blacked out E63 lets meet up or im willing to meet halfway or we can meet at a track and run one another or take yours to the track and run it. Yes or no? None of you have ever responded to when I say anything about this.

If you or anyone hit 11z I would be happy for anyone because it shows the cars potential.But will your or blacked out e63 ever do so.. No cause you two talk while i had the ***** to head to the track but I had an issue. It's all part of modding. Will I go back, of course. Have any of you two? No, yet you all talking ****. Run your cars and not your mouths. Guys look like BMW fanboys. Never bashed on AMR tune, yet you two seem to enjoy doing so to EC? At this point really doesn't bother me what you two say because you all just talk...

I'm thinking of converting over to Eurocharged myself.... AMR is kind of boring.. I mean there's no excitement other than the monster power increase... I figure if I'm gonna shell out some cash I want more than just reliable power... I want Eurocharged to light up my dash like a Christmas tree too... after all I got the ambient lighting pack.. why not have all the nice colors on the instrument panel too
