C450 AMG
I can tell you that OE stg 1 is advertised as you listed it, but from speaking with Jerry he says stg 1 is 50hp and 100tq, stage 2 gains were started to be 80-100hp, no tq figure in the emails I exchanged with him.

They sold it to me with that numbers!
almost didnt notice any difference, so changer to EC and that was a day and night difference!
So Jerry from OE is unreliable as f#%k, if he tell you the gain is only 50hp

Thanks for contacting OE Tuning. The 2017 C43 AMG V6 Bi-Turbo is an amazing vehicle. From tuning on the dyno we typically see peak gains of +80Hp and +120Tq. Dynograph can be found here:***
so thrown away money with OE scamming
I never would advise them!

C450 AMG
This is in regards to me asking questions about stage 1
"Thanks for your email details. The C450 V6 Bi-Turbo is an amazing vehicle. From tuning on the dyno, we typically see peak gains of +50wHp and +100wTq."
"Stage2 must have catless downpipes installed and is +30-50Hp over Stage1 output. CEL removal with Stage2. You can always upgrade to Stage2 after initial purchase at a later date for $100."
Personally I have had no problems with them.

What you mean by "Traceless" and "warrantied"

* Traceless is meant to indicate that, according to the manufacturer, once removed, there is no evidence that the unit was ever installed on the car. This is not possible with ECU flash-based tunes as there will always be history of the flash, even if flashing back to stock (like in the gateway module, for example).
* Warrantied indicates that the manufacturer offers at least a 1-year engine warranty with their product.

C43
HD Tuning is worth a mention. I had heard of them before, but saw a video today on YouTube of a hyacinth red C43 coupe with a burble tune from them and it was the most nuts burble tune I've seen thus far. The comments said there was decent power gains too. Can't find the YouTube video 
. They're SoCal based and I'm reaching out to them for a quote/more info. WIll update after
