Post Introducing Special Features: Full Burble | 2-Step | Burn out Mode | Launch Control

MBWorld Members,

We work hard to give you the highest quality, power and driving experience with our ECU Software Upgrades (tunes). Our engineering department and developers have been hard at work developing what we call our exclusive "Special Features" options. These engineered special features are another example of what separates us from the average "tuners". Giving your vehicle the ability to do more than what the factory intended and what standard tuning can not offer.

To have the ability to purchase these new "Special Features", must purchase our RV3.1 ECU Software Upgrade (tune) or already have our RV3.1 ECU Software Upgrade (tune). Upgrade your RV3.1 to the RV3.1S!


As Most already know, our RV3.1 has been out for while now, but if you do not know here are our specs:
  • Commanded Selective Drive
  • Optimized Torque Limiters
  • Optimized Air Sensors
  • Optimized Coolant Sensors
  • Improved Throttle Response
  • Improved Turbo Response
  • Smooth Power Delivery
  • Power On Demand
  • Speed Limiter Removed
  • OBD II Emissions Compliant
  • Safe, Proven & Tested Results
  • Horsepower: up to +130HP
  • Torque: up to+180TQ
  • 0-60 times: 3.3s - 3.4s (dragy verified)
  • Quarter Mile: 11.6et (full weight / 93 octane) (dragy verified / track verified / customer verified)
  • 1/4 Mile MPH: 119mph (full weight / 93 octane) (dragy verified / track verified / customer verified)



What are these Special Features?
  • ON/OFF Start-up Burble Mode
  • Full Burble Mode
  • 2-Step Mode
  • Rolling 2-Step Mode
  • Burn Out Mode
  • Launch Control (boost off the line)



What is ON/OFF Start-up Burble Mode?
  • ON/OFF Start-up Burble Mode allows you to start-up the vehicle and give a burble sound while coming down to idle. While sounding great, you do have the option of using it when you want. Works well at car meets when trying to draw attention



What is Full Burble Mode?
  • Full Burble Mode is a lot of fun and enjoyable. Instead of just having "burble" at full throttle or heavy load, you can now have this feature when driving in low, mid or high RPM.



What is 2-Step Mode?
  • This special feature is quite unique. When in neutral or park, giving the vehicle full throttle (WOT) the factory slows the RPM down and limits the RPM at 3500/3800rpm. Making the vehicle stop at that point. Not being able to give a full "rev out" of the engine. Our 2-Step Mode extends this to 4500-4800rpm as well as giving the popular "2-Step" sound and function.



What is Rolling 2-Step Mode?
  • This special feature is a lot of fun. When driving the vehicle, you are able to put the vehicle into neutral, while rolling, full throttle the vehicle and it will initiate 2-Step Mode. Designed for those who like to show off and do that slow roll by.



What is Burn Out Mode?
  • Burn Out Mode allows the vehicle to do a full burn out. Smoking the tires and creating that fun rear wheel drive feel. You are able to hold the break and feather the throttle.



What is Launch Control (boost off the line)?
  • Launch Control/Boost off the line (BOTL) special feature is nothing new to us. We included this feature with our release of our RV3.1 ECU Software Upgrade. Gives you the ability to launch the vehicle in boost as suppose to flat punching the car. We are able to build torque and boost while the vehicle is at a stand still. Those who already have the upgrade have been enjoying your 3.3sec - 3.4sec 0-60 times.



Special Features Video:
  • We put together a quick simple video showing these special features. Video consist of a couple of customer vehicles C450 & C43 AMG.


Current Special Feature supported vehicles:
  • Mercedes-Benz C400 (in development)
  • Mercedes-Benz C450 (completed)
  • Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG (final stages)

I dont care about burbles they sound like the car is farting in my opinion, but that full boost at launch is awesome and what the car should have had from the beginning, instead of the stupid training wheels, factory governed, low revs- thats why first gears potential is minimized in this car- Screw mercedes and AMG for putting in this childish, failsafe mode- it takes all the fun away. I'm glad AMG finaly cleared this up and gave the true 0-60 potential of 3.3 seconds Bravo sirs, bravo

I think the special features are even more than that.


Which is why I was asking for total price

What's up with the turbo upgrade situation? I think I recall AMR and EC had units running in June, yet we haven't heard a thing.

Definitely worth the money. What is the turn around if the ECU is mailed in? Also, do you ship APO?

AMR, would you mind explaining how this works?

The C43 has a 31/69 front to rear power split. How are you preventing power from going to the front wheels for your burn out mode with an ECU tune?

Thank you sir! I will pass this along to Robert and our engineering department

Thanks! We love the way it sounds and clients can finally rev their cars at meets/shows. It is even louder with upgraded downpipes

We appreciate it, thank you! We work very hard to maximize the vehicle's performance potential while retaining a fine line of safety and reliability. We even like to throw in some ego boosting features to make the car more enjoyable overall

The burble tone will vary on exhaust set up.

I am always more than willing to help where I can! Welcome to the #amrempire

The hp/tq gains along with the features are completely different. You cannot compare the two.

We are finalizing our results and will update everyone shortly!

It is indeed! If we receive your ECU before 11a.m, we can have it programmed and shipped out the same day.

Shoot me an email at matt.forbes@amrperformance.com

Which will help all of us as they will bring the price of the upgrade to a more reasonable level.

I would love to get a Amr tune but the price is just too insane when u can run 11s on a piggyback

Supposedly not allowed to comment on their threads.

I am genuinely curious to know how AMR is disabling the awd for burnout mode. The burble mode on/off is nice though. It’s nice to have several tuning companies competing on our platform now.

I would like to know this as well. Given the 31/69 split ratio doing a burnout on an awd car even though it is rear wheel biased cannot be good on the drivetrain/transmission. Can AMR elaborate on this.
