umm not really. They said if I want more power to go for catless Downpipes and a dynotune. It’s kinda misleading, because they market their tune on their website as c43 2017-2019 making 470hp 600tq. Which is clearly not the case for 2019s. Anyways, hope they find a c43 they can develop on and then I can take my car back for a reflash.

That’s curious because the exhaust for the 2019 is exactly the same as previous model that makes more power without the need for catless downpipes.

Only MBs - the best or nothing
Not a direct answer, but jim04clk got Dinan as have I. It is extremely affordable (only $250), beyond easy to install/deinstall, safe on your engine and has a return policy from 14 days (if bought directly from Dinan) to as much as 30-60 days (if bought from other vendors line ecstuning, summit racing, etc.). Why not try it and if it is not "enough", just return it.

We (I, jim04clk and 2012 merc ... with '19 E450) have addressed this "issue" in PMs and in other forums. I have '19 GLE43, jim04 - '19 C43 and 2012merc - '19 E450. We were in separate contacts with Dinan and the reason it is not listed for MY19 is because they have not tested anything on MB MY19 (Dinan has an impeccable reputation, so even though engines are the same, until it is tested by them for a given MY - it will not be on their site). However, we found that it is 100% compatible (2012merc said he has his in '19 E450 wagon for 6months now) with all MB 3L V6BT engines 2015-2019+. Excellent product considering price, ease of installation (or removal) and safety. A superb bang for the buck product.

Yes. I love it. The app is kinda useless other then setting up mode. I have it in Race. Supposingly 3.2 pounds of boost increase. It makes every drive mode a little sharper. Comfort is nice. I generally drive in Sport. It’s more felt in mid range and upstairs. Car gets into its powerband faster. Downshift pops on my car improved. I have the PE exhaust. For $250. Can’t beat it.

No. but trust me you will know it’s there. I’m not saying it makes the most power. Or it’s better then JB4 or Racechip. I just wanted an easy solution. There is one other piggy out there that use a 2 sensor hookup. If I get thirsty for power I might go that route. ECU flash didn’t work for me. Facelift cars need a different tune. I thinks the weather and gas available could be a big factor why some people don’t have luck with the facelift tunes.

Oh its not my car. Just a YouTube video. I have '19 GLE43 and while I did not time it, car "feels" significantly improved considering a more than modest investment I made.

And don't get defensive - it's literally not listed on their own website. Which probably speaks more to their integrity as a company more than it not actually working.

why are you talking in circles?!! gah
I would love to see verifiable proof the the dinan unit is working on a 2019 c43 - you saying your butt dyno checks out is less than compelling information.

I followed your example and timed him as well... on my stop watch I got same 4.9sec with Dinan in Race, but 5.7sec in Stock. To me a big difference. My heavy GLE43's 0-60 time per mbusa.com is 5.5, if Dinan makes it even 5sec flat then I am more than pleased (car feels much quicker in S and S+ with Dinan set to Race vs. S/S+ stock).

For the record, even though facelift tunes have clearly not been written from scratch or perfected yet, the cars are still hugely faster than stock.
My Dragy verified times on Eurocharged V4: ( 2019 Estate, P Zero RFs)
0-60 MPH 3.50 ( stock estate- high 4s)
1/4 mile 11.81 @114mph ( stock - high 12s)
100-2001 KPH - 10.18 secs -( stock estate- 12.8 - see Auto Top NL)
Over a second improvement in just the 0-60 is crazy.

Why would the weather make a difference to someone having bad luck with facelift tune? That's absurd.
