Best c43 Tune ?

What’s up guys been debating for a while now who the best tuner would be for these c43’s. Have downpipes & drop in filters just need a tune now. If anyone can drop some dyno numbers and their mod list I’d appreciate it lol 👍🏼

Most people on here have either AMR or Eurocharged. Last time I checked, Eurocharged had the best dragy times but it's pretty close. IMO it comes down to which one you think provides the best support. I haven't tuned my C43 yet because I don't know if i'm going to keep it.

With the facelift models, the ECU must be mailed in correct? I heard there is no way to tune it with a handheld right now.

I have had OE Tuning’s stage one tune for approximately a year and could not be happier. Soon going with OE’s stage 2 once I get the downpipes and FI exhaust.

What are the gains on face lift models if you mail in the ECU?

I have my wife's 2019 tune and it is so much fun. I have a tuner locally that does it and for a lot less than other guys. He had tuned about 50 cars including mine, customers, and friends!

Eurocharged is amazing. I have ran their tune for over a year and half with no issues. There support is also amazing and answer almost immediately.

JB4 gives similar performance in an easy to install and remove format, and since it has resale value, winds up costing a lot less than flash maps.

I believe 2019-2020 FL models are currently limited by a chip that has not yet been "jailbroken" so both EC and AMR tap out at like 70hp gains. The FL models have more HP to begin with but gains are limited to what pre-FL tunes provide. In short, its too early to get a tune for FL model c43, best to wait until someone makes a legit tune for our cars rather than flashing a "last gen" tune.

This by far for 2019+. I've been running into this issue alot lately. Best to wait until the tuners can figure it out. FL models have larger turbo's so I would imagine once the code is cracked they should produce some excellent results.

Do you know what the 0-60 times are for c450, c43 with eurocharged and ams etc. Planning to get a tune for my c450 within a week. Thanks

Actually, that is inaccurate. You are confusing the cpc module with the ECU tune. We make over 70whp with our tunes consistently, especially with our RV3.1 software upgrade. The "jailbroken" you are referring to is for the cpc module that limits the top speed of the car. Power is able to be made and you are not getting a "last gen tune", but it is the speed limit that companies are still working on removing.

Eurocharged website states 414 HP and 457TQ on the C450 and C43 after the tune. Is that correct? Seems less then the gains of 70HP+

Eurocharged stage 1 on 2016 C450.

Steep incline on the second 1/8th mile so I know I could do better. I believe i could have a better launch but 0-60 was 3.9
