We are looking for 2009 or newer C63 AMG

In addition to our tuning for the Nissan GT-R, Porsche and the new Mercedes 5.5 M157 Twin Turbo engine AMS is also going to start working with the widely popular 6.2 N/A Motor. We actually have already tuned our shop 2012 P31 C63 AMG with fantastic results but now we need a local NON P31 C63 AMG owner willing to let us develop a tune on their car. This will involve keeping your car for about 1-2 weeks while we perfect our mapping. In exchange for your patience and the inconvenience we have caused you we are willing to give you this tune FREE OF CHARGE!

We are looking for 2009 or newer C63 AMG

We saw 20 whp on our P31 C63 on 93 octane, so we would expect to see further gains with a NON P31 C63.

yeah.. its a pretty sweet deal for someone looking for substantial performance gains via an ECU recalibration.

2 weeks without a car in exchange of a cheap tune? Seriously? Who wants his baby used as a guinea pig? Definitely not me. Sorry for the negatively but I'm realistic.

I can understand being skeptical if we were some new company popping up on the grid. We are not however and I politely invite you do do a simple search on google for ALPHA or AMS performance.

www.amsperformance.com and www.alphaperformance.com

Here is a thread we stared about our company to help familiarize yourself with AMS: AMS performance enters the Mercedes World: An Introduction

The reason we need your car for two weeks is we do not just plug in a file like so many other companies do. Sadly we see this all too often. We actually need that time to properly engineer a file that will not only deliver more HP and TQ but not sacrifice any of the features and driveability you can come to love about your car.


Here is a 2012 CLS 63 we tuned. AMS tunes the new Mercedes 5.5Biturbo platform

That same tune was then implemented in a locals car that had nothing but positive things to say: Zac's 2012 CLS63 AMG 563whp and 700Ft lbs of torque! he give a great review on post 14 of that thread.

Again we are not new to tuning by any means. The end product will be fantastic and to compensate you for your time we are willing to offer this service free of charge for the lucky owner that takes us up on it.

AMS has an established reputation for building fast cars in the Evo, Subaru, GT-R, and BMW platforms. I'm excited to see them extending to the MB platform and the M156.

If I didn't just get a tune, I'd be interested. Someone local should jump on this.

25whp gain on a P31 is pretty substantial! I assume this is with 93 octane and that the gains would be lower with California's 91 octane.

Good luck in this endeavor!

I'm sorry it was 20 whp and not 25 whp, but still very good gains. This was done with 93 octane and 91 would yield a little less.

yes.. We just got our E63 running Wed with our upgraded Alpha turbo's. We hope to be doing some testing in the next couple weeks. We will be sure to post the results.

Thanks

We are still looking for a non P31 car. We would need the car for an estimated time of 1 week.

This Alpha calibration will be offered free of charge.

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

We are not going to do anything rash with your car. The tune we load into your car would be nearly the same as what we have done on our car and several others. The reason we want a non performance package car is to get real world gains comparing stock to after our tune and to make any minor changes that might be specific to the non P31 setup. In exchange for your time we are willing to give you that tune for free.

We are not "beating" on anyone's car. Yes, we need to go wide open throttle on the dyno in order to properly calibrate your ECU. We would not be doing anything more than the average owner does to their car on the street except we are doing it in a safe, environmentally controlled area.

We have been in the performance business for well over a decade. You are in good hands and our reputation speaks for itself.

With that being said if this offer doesn't interest you then we respect that. However please do not insinuate we are "beating" on anyone's car. We are a professional establishment and everyone's car is treated like royalty.

Eric

so i'm guessing you have never "beat on" your car before

if you don't like the idea , then don't donate your car . there are plenty of people out there without a tune that might be interested since AMS has proven their work time and time again .

my car was at Dynocomp for four days , most of which were it trying to be fixed on the dyno , and nothing ever happened to it . imagine how many pulls can be done in 4 days of work

now ask Earl and Jim how many times their cars have had pulls on dynos

i'm guessing the cars can handle it and AMS will take care of your car
