I have yet to hear from a satisfied Evosport tune customer.
2 people on this site posted that they did not get the gains. Both were flashed with the original 10hp file, not the updated file. This was well documented.

There are many others who HAVE POSTED on this site with positive results.

It seems like you are keeping tabs? Have you really counted all of our powerchip software customers?

I would warn all that assumptions and rumor is far from fact, and will only continue to mislead people.

If I need to get EVERY user who has the software to post, then I guess I can spend the day calling customers, but that is kind of worthless IMHO. we know the truth and so do our customers!

Thanks

PS - tell you what - I like challenges. You bring your car up, we will flash it and dyno it before and after. If it makes the power, then you pay for the tune and the dyno time. If it doesn't, then you can be validated in your posts (you have made this post more then once). Seems fair? What do you think?

My car has been in the shop for 45 days out of the 5 months that I have owned it. I am currently in the process of a lemon case. I have not seen/driven/touched my car since the end of December because of several issues with the seats.

Don't think getting the ECU messed with will help my cause.

Thanks for the link. I guess I was wrong. My apologies.

WOW - 45 days out of 5 months. No wonder you are cranky! I would be very upset. Sucks. If there is anything we can do to help, let me know, we are just up the road.

thanks

I dont think anyone is saying anything bad about MHP. In fact I think its great what they are going for the 63 guys. I hear alot of things in passing about all sorts of tuners, shops, dealers, people and what not... good and bad.

On occasion I hear something that maybe note worthy. Is what I hear true? I dont know? Thats why I list it as a rumor rather than say its a fact. When I heard MHP's tuner bailed I was like "NO WAY!" and people were without ECU's for their cars. I think thats a note worthy thing to post. I tried to make clear that it was a rumor and just something I've heard rather than call it a fact....

So when MHP chimes in lets hope this gets cleared up.

Whassuuppp!!!

Hey guys, I’m baaaack.

First and foremost thanks to our customers that took the time to post in our defense when we were still on suspension.
To be crystal clear, we aren’t going anywhere (haven’t gone anywhere), and don’t plan on leaving this or any market EVER. We’ve spent far too much time on here to leave, and aside from that don’t feel like relinquishing any of our present MB/AMG records anytime soon. 
To address all the rumors; I leave for 2 weeks and this place turns into a nail salon…
We do not, nor have we ever had a third party tuner, therefore making it impossible for him/her to leave us hanging by bailing on us. The truth of the matter is we did have some hardware issues that caused delays for several of our customers. As compensation we gave all those kept waiting a free upgrade to v3 specs, or cash back, or whatever level of compensation was agreed upon by both parties as fair.
Said issues are now resolved, we’re at 100% operational capacity again with all makes/models/years, and our tuning is as potent as ever. We’ve also implemented several new safeguards (above and beyond what was in place just weeks ago) to our tuning in order to ensure the highest possible level of customer satisfaction possible. We look forward to results from the batch of C63/63/55K/65 tunes that were kicked out this week, as we feel they are easily our best tunes to date.
I have to give Dave MAJOR props for working through and around some of the issues that were hampering us in the past few weeks. I don’t know of another tuner/person on this planet that could do what he did in order to make things happen. Dave literally worked around the clock, sometimes falling asleep at his bench/computer in order to get these cals out. Though I’ve been working with him for a few years at this point, he never ceases to amaze me. Thanks bro.
In the past 14 days in which we haven’t been able to post here we’ve kicked out v2 Lexus IS-F ECU/TCU tuning, ECU/TCU tuned the first N/A and TRD supercharged Toyota Tundras, and enabled European launch control for E60/E63 M5/M6s. I also got rid of the CLS55 and will be picking up our new project vehicle, an E60 M5 in the next week. Unfortunately the CLS55 had been in accident, which I wasn’t aware of when it was purchased, as such it was returned to the dealer last week. (It was minor accident, but I’m a stickler about that kind of thing.)

Finally, and getting back on track we are pleased to announce that we now offer our own SFI certified pulley for AMG 63s, as well as custom stall converters (with stall speeds spec’d to your application) for 7G transmissions, and 3 exhaust options for C63s:

1) Longtubes/high flow cats or off-road mid pipes that mate to the stock catback at the factory connection point. For those desiring a significant increase in power but not much deviation from the OEM exhaust note/volume.

2) Catback that mates to the stock exhaust manifolds. For those looking for a moderate amount more power and a bit more volume to the exhaust.

3) Full race exhaust, 1 7/8” longtubes, your choice of cat cell count or off-road mids, 3” back to the tailpipes. For those looking to make as much power as possible.

We will be attending MIR on March 1st with both vehicles and have set our sights on running 10s with the C63 N/A with the stock longblock. It may or may not happen, but it’s a goal that we believe to be possible with the addition of v3 tuning, full exhaust, pulley, and 3000rpm converter.

I urge anyone interested in seeing what our tuning can do to attend the event. As always anyone is welcome to drive either car of ours and feel for themselves what complete driveline tuning can do vs ECU only tuning.

Now with all that being said, if anyone has any specific questions that they’d like answered please feel free to post, PM, email or call me. As Mike (dodger63) referenced, my phone number is posted all over the internet, anyone can call me anytime for the straight scoop.

Thanks, and yes, I did kinda miss you guys.


Andy

Welcome back! Can't wait for pictures/results of your new headers and exhaust! Any hints as to what the tips will look like with the full exhaust?

Thanks! I'll post pics and sound clips of the final full race system as soon as I can. Believe it or not aside from the headers the tips have taken the most time. I know most like the AMG tips but there was no way to get them to work with our full system, so we designed a tip that we feel fills in the gap as best as possible. That being said, we can always do custom tips. We also allow for extra bungs for wideband air fuel meters, and ceramic coating as options.
We'll do an initial group buy as well. The first 5 systems are already spoken for--hint, there will be some fast C63s over in U.A.E.

Forgot to mention earlier, you can now purchase both MB/AMG and Lexus/Toyota vehicles direct from select dealerships, with both our tuning and parts, and still retain warranty.
