now ask Earl and Jim how many times their cars have had pulls on dynos
What are you talking about bro, my vehicles only get driven to church, Starbucks and the grocery store, they are always short shifted, and babied. What's a dyno ?



Had to laugh at adv4nced53's post, a few, or even dozens of dyno pulls will not hurt a car anymore than spirited street driving does, espeicailly one of these motors. Want to know what really beats on a motor? An hour commute each way to work every day in stop and go traffic in 90 degree temps, that is harder on a motor and trans than a few dyno pulls.

Lots of non-P31 C63 right here in Chicagoland, not sure why nobody has jumped on this offer yet.

I've been thinking about this, but my car is anything but stock.

I also don't have a second car so leaving my car for a week while living in the suburbs makes my life a lot more difficult. Now if AMS wants to loan me a GTR for that week I'm sure I'd be more than happy to cough up my car.

Either way, my buddy recommended I speak with Arne so I will be contacting them to do some dyno pulls once I get my new wheels in a couple weeks.

Quote: So let me get this straight. You guys will keep my car for a week or two, beat on it through repetitive pulls and map tweaks...and in return I get a free tune that's hardly worth $1000? And I thought MB techs driving it at the dealership was annoying...what a riot lol
No one is twisting your arm,budd.
That's more like a custom tune.

AMS, what are you researching and developing through this? I thought you already had a tune available for the M156, along with a full Alpha C package.

We have completed our Alpha calibration on our own P31 car and need to finalize the calibration on a NoN P31 car for the C package.

please let me know if we can answer any further questions
