The torque is in NM here, ( a metric) and the power is HP ( using imperial lb ft) hence the crossover is at a different point. The power and torque must both be in imperial to crossver at 5252.

Which tune is this? The blue graph has a huge torque spike .

@AhEmGee its a custom tune no eurocharged or amr

And yes your right the torque is in NM for some reason idk but it’s easy to convert to lbs w some math however the hp is awhp and my tuner at the time didn’t have the best fans for the dyno at that specific moment so ik I’m making more horsepower when my car is outside so the hp Is a little id say underrated cause my quarter mile times suggest my engine is making more jam w the tune as I got 11.5 w dragy I promise I will post my drag slips or dragy once I get good tires need a new set of R888’s or ps4 but since winter is coming and this car is my daily ima get them on Michelin winter pilot sports on soon but prior to that ima get the new sets on and do the slips/quarter mile timing so I get a better time and results aiming for 11.4 flat 😈

93+ octane only, w the cpc adjusted for no speed limit and the tcu tune for crisp on point shifts, using motul for my transmission fluid, OEM caused issues w gear 1 shifting to gear 2 after like 45k of tuned driving, but it went away after I did a transmission flush and oil change for me even tho I got the car at 0km Ive been the only owner, the oem tranny fluid goes bad v quick if your tuned or jb4 as its taking a beating from the extra power, replace every 55k for optimal health

my tuner knows what’s good w these cars he was a master tech at Mercedes for a long long time he knows his ****, I was on a eurocharged tune prior from my current tune and I didn’t like it, too many burbles, bad economy, **** I had burbles even on reduced/eco a little excessive for me 😂 but I still have love for eurocharged don’t get it twisted they are better then amr or most of the generic brands but not my taste tbh I can post my dyno sheet from the eurocharged tune as well if y’all want let me know !

Speaking of flat 11.4, I ran these today... I wonder what I'll get with colder weather and adding on the rest of the usual 43 FBO setup.

@5ynatra proper, I can see why you got an amazing time, the 0-60 footer (someone knows how to build boost and fly huh 😎 ) what you got there was super neat !! just wait on a good day I think you can hit lower if you hit 11.4 flat already dude !!!! Can’t lie I’m impressed I wonder what type of numbers you can do once your car has the intercooler upgrade from Wagner, also dyno your car dude I wanna see the power your making w the stacking and how the power curve flows w the stacking, would love to see the bell curve and the dips and how the jb4 supplements on maps other then 0 w the tune !!!! Just watch out for knock and you should be good hopefully

@19’43s

This was a good thread about stacking a JB4 with a tune until you came trolling in... Does your mom know you're on her computer?

@ 5ynatra

11.4 with an AMR stage 1 + JB4 on E30 is freaky fast! You should be doing 9's 60-130 tho...

The tune isn't accommodated for E30, it's tuned for 93 octane only. You can literally look at the timestamps of my comments I commented that minutes after publishing on Dragy.

Wasn't there just another thread on AMR? I thought I saw it last night but was a little tired. Seemed interesting though and I told myself I'd come back to it today. Had to do with draggy times / tunes / facebook bans. All the good stuff you want in a car forum?

What happened to that thread? I see AMR liked a comment in here today, maybe they had it removed?

Of course they had it removed, AMR standard operating procedures - delete the truth. They claimed on IG a stock car with flash ran certain times. The user is literally in this thread mentioning his mods and jb4 stack. Amr got called out and cried to mods and got the thread deleted.

OK, AMR is looking real sketchy now. It's clear by the fact they're trying to cover it up that it wasn't a mistake to begin with. They knew that the person had more mods than just their tune and tried to discredit another tuner. Now, by deleting content from the FB page they moderate, banning people who caught them, and then coming over here to ask evidence to be deleted? Shady shady shady. No doubt which tunes to go for and which to run far and fast from.

Lest anyone think I figured that out from the above quoted posts, no, I saw the original posts before they were deleted. A lot of us did. Enough that it's not going away simply because AMR tried to hide it.

This is not a good look for this forum. By hiding the truth, you are just as bad as the liars and are doing a big disservice to this community. This information needs to be readily available for people that are considering tuners so that they can make informed decisions for their cars.

Apparently, if you aren't a customer you're not allowed to point out their BS or comment about them. Since when on an automotive forum do you need a BUSINESS relationship to comment on a vendor? The forums are a place for enthusiasts to talk about PRODUCTS for their cars, whether they have a business relationship or not. If a company is putting out INACCURATE INFORMATION and there is legit proof that they are MISLEADING the PUBLIC — then what the hell are we supposed to do? Not inform the community? I am so confused....I thought the forums were the place where we talk about these kinds of things

Agreed. There was actual photographic proof of conversations so I'm not sure what being a customer would contribute here. The business model here seems to be to try and reel in new and uniformed owners with exaggerated promises of performance.

You're not allowed to comment even as a customer. Some no longer frequent this forum because they kept being reprimanded and suspended for calling out BS and letting others know about bad experiences...

Using JB4 logs, once of my logs recorded a 3.2 0-60, not going to say that's completely accurate but mid 3s for 0-60 seems like what it's hitting consistently, need to dragy this up soon.
When you got the JB4 did you buy the Bluetooth connect too with it. I have AMR tune too

I am running a Eurocharged ECU Tune with a JB4/BCM piggyback on my 18 GLC43. Great combo! Coupled together made a significant difference.

They sponsor the dying forum = desperate to keep happy and money in pockets would be my guess.

These are my two runs I did recently. EC Canada tune + downpipes. Run 1 is with JB4 set on Map 1. Run 2 is Map 0. Noticeable difference. Was scared to try Map 2

I will make some runs:
EC tune
EC tune + JB4 map 1
EC tune + JB4 map 2

Might be a day or so but I will post them when done.
