hello everyone, for does people who are interested in MHP ECU/TCU here is some feed back,

i got my tune back wed night and drove around for about 60 miles last night just to get the tune inline, today i woke up and did another 100miles so i can break in even more. and i also did some dyno's as well but im not ganna post any results b/c they are NOT from the same dyno as my base line dyno is, and i also dint break in FULL YET. anyway i did get a 446.9 whp UNCORRECTED and at the time i only had about 120 miles on the tune. ALSO everytime i made a pull my car made more power, i did 3 pulls and everytime i gain alot of power this is just the most i did.

anyway, Monday i will be going back to the dyno wher i did my original baseline and then i will update everyone with the dyno charts and what ever else you guys need.

P.s: this tune is sick, man how this car feels when it get opened up 540hp of PURE 100% BEAST. Andy you da man bro, you know you dodo, (i might get a point if i say something else lol )

Thanks for the feedback! Sounds like the ECU tune performed as advertised, as others have said with the MHP tune. Did you get the V2 or V3 tune?

Also, the different V1, V2, and V3 tunes just pertains to the TCU tuning right, the ECU tune is the same throughout regardless of which version?

MHP

He's running our latest/greatest v3 cal. Wait until you see 100 octane results.

We've made improvements to both the ECU and TCU cals for v3, it's basically a hotter tune overall than v2, as v2 was to v1 (with regard to both ECU and TCU).

Thanks
Andy

andy the guys face today in the m3 was priceless, i cant belive i did that to a m3 owner lol

g.smiley

wow this tune sounds incredible. Can you describe how much the shifting in manual has changed? Does it feel noticeably faster? Can you double down shift at all?

Thanks and ENJOY!

please share to us the full story!

446.9? Wow...that sounds incredible. Nice Job!!!

MHP

It was a E92 (Sedan with manual trans) and I do believe mthis not only pissed but took a dump in his wheaties.

mthis

i swear the more and more i drive the car the more the trans shifts harder. i think i need a new pair of dr's

mthis

but it this was, if ther was a camera in my car to see my face reaction while the car shifts in sport, it would be priceless, this is from my gf she called me today and toled me that she has a stiff neck.

mthis

poor guy thught i had a stock c63 mean while i only had about 80 miles on my tune at that time, i could not open my windows and talk to him but i was passing him with no problem. and spining at the same time. on run we left from a stand still i was spinning and taking off and short shifted my mistake and still in front.

a_Y

haha nice kill man!

mthis

that was uncorreced numbers. but still pumps and my car wheels alot stronger today.

MHP

It's going to keep getting quicker/harder for 400-500 miles.

a_Y

so MHP, is the v3 tune only on the ecu? or does it also apply to the tcu? and is it available for the sl63?

MHP

v3 ECU/TCU is an improved version of v2 (we still carry v2 for $1000 less than v3) on both sides ( ECU and TCU) of the driveline. Yes we can tune the SL63 MCT and ECU no problem. We've done 4 to date, with I believe 2 in Hong Kong and the other 2 being in the middle east.

Thanks!

i may be getting the carlsson performance kit for my car with includes airbox, full exhaust and ecu

i am getting that mainly due to the 600hp it offers and also its compatibility with right hand drive cars. i am wondering if you guys will develop an exhaust system for the sl63 and also for right hand drive cars?

if i do end up getting the carlsson kit, can i still get my ecu to you for tcu upgrades? will it affect the tuning that carlsson has done?

MHP

Not sure on the right hand drive cars. I'd have to have one on hand, or send you a set of headers to see about fitment.
Honestly, pass on the Carlsson ECU. We make more power/torque, have better part throttle drivability (they don't even do part throttle) and offer TCU tuning.
That being said if you're stuck on a Carlsson ECU, we can add TCU to the cal without changing your base Carlsson ECU tune--just the parts of the ECU necessary to allow the TCU changes to work.

We need to get the Corrected #'s out from your Dyno pull's you did Not the Uncorrected #'s, I've been told that the Uncorrected #'s will come in much higher and are totally off and in actuate. If you don't have the corrected #'s I'll be stopping into Crazyhorse and will pull your "Corrected" numbers on Monday when I do my Stock pulls and compare pulls for a true WHP

mthis

did you even read what i originaly posted up there ^.

ohh by the way i have the corrected numbers, but since i only had a lil over 100miles on the tune im not going to compare the graphs side by side with my stock. and i did NOT MAKE MY ORIGINAL DYNO THERE that one of the other reasons i will not compare to the same ones.

p:s. NO DYNO place would ever show you someone elses DYNO pulls so good luck with that one.

MHP

Uncorrected #s aren't always higher (not talking about this case specifically as I'm sure they are due to it being winter) than corrected #s. In the summer the opposite is true, corrected #s are higher than uncorrected. Also remember that winter formulated 93 is more on par with 91 than summer 93.

On another note, you should probably ask permission to access someone else's data instead of saying you're going to "pull" it for them. At our dyno, unless someone show me consent from the third party in question, there's no chance in hell I'm showing anyone anything. That's simply not my place to do.

Thanks
Andy

OK, if you say so... What was the average (3) CORRECTED pull's??? I'd like to compare yours with the (2) C63's that will be done Monday, as you already know. These are hand made stock engines blue prints of each other which can't be too far off of each other, so by you giving me what your TRUE average pull is I'll have a ball park figure from your tune or I'll wait until I see you Monday with my own eye's as we last spoke... Just trying to keep everyone honest about these Tunes which cost mucho $... As far as you getting more power from running this "might" be true on the TCU side... The ECU WHP should not change and BTW I've spoken to people which do these tunes first hand. I'm not a pro racer but I have friends that are... I guess next week we'll see the real deal if all goes as planned.

MHP

Honestly, I think you should go with an Evosport/PC tune.

I'm not sure who you talked to, and it doesn't really matter because they're wrong and/or ignorant, but you should know there is a GIANT learning curve when reinstalling a tuned ECU/TCU. Older MB OS allowed for max gains to be seen at 200 hard miles, with the newer OS we're looking at 400-500 miles.

dlbello

Andy,
Thanks for the heads up but everyone involved have been talking on the phone back and forth... So its no secret and also why would it be such a secret to know the corrected #'s? and then compare them. Makes sense to me, this would only benefit the end user... me along w/ others right? unless I'm missing something

mthis

again you cant compare something thats not fully done, and i dint get my baseline dyno from there so its not fare to do side by side with that dyno place. Monday im going back to my dyno wher i got a baseline done and then you can compare all you want.
and i will also be going to crazthorse AFTER my original dyno place,
