What does the v5 tune change from v4?? Does this consist of any hardware like tcu / valve body being upgraded? Also what if we have MCT trans that already blips on down shifts?

The Blip Mod is specifically for the older 7spd non-MCT Auto (torque converter based), If you have MCT you cannot/do not need to perform this mod. It basically converts the older 7spd Auto into an MCT essentially.

V5 changes: Even more top end power essentially, some minor mid range tweaks as well. Power still kicks in at 2500rpm, but the biggest difference is 5000rpm+. I am coming from base 507 tune (increased to V4 spec of course) on my ML63 so gains are obviously less than would be from a stock C63 AMG (at 450HP spec).

For the engine ECU portion yes of course, but I had to pay extra for the TCU upgrade as it is a totally separate tune co-developed by Ralf from Germany.

The two combined is an absolutely amazing combination, hard to put it into works how much better it really is in both acceleration and deceleration (blipping down the gears).

Cost for blip was $800 euros, and is worth every penny in addition to the eurocharged V5 tune (which complimentary of course for existing eurocharged V4 customers as always).

Contact sales@eurocharged.com for more information, I am sure they can provide more details I don't know about. Just relaying my personal experience with the new setup.

If you have the standard 7spd auto, this V5 ECU/Blip TCU combo is a must.

Does this blip upgrade cause more wear and tear/stress on the tranny? How exactly is it accomplished? Just mat revs more precisely?

BTW, if you don't have a Eurocharged tune and want the blip upgrade, is that possible?

Hmmm very interesting I have v4 tune so I'm def excited to hear about v5 and the difference it made for you !! Yes I have the MCT trans but I also have the weistec Valve body / TCU upgrade to make it shift faster so maybe I can really take advantage of v5 !!! Thanks for the update enjoy the new found power and trans

The blip upgrade should make older 7G transmissions equal to the 7G in the pre facelift C63. Assuming the transmissions were identical with the exception of software, it should have the same reliability.

AMG was considering releasing a software upgrade for the CLK BS back in the day to add the blip, but changed their minds because of recertification requirements if I remember correctly.

All C63s have the blip, so not really news for this forum. Definitely a game changer for older AMGs with the 7G.

This is not a standard blip, it is WAAAY more aggressive, you have to hear it in person to believe it. Also, to unlock even more power it requires a retune of both the TCU and ECU. I can't explain it technically, but if you contact Jerry I am sure he could explain it better.

All I know is the power is insane and the downshifts are unreal.

In theory the wear and tear should be less because instead of the transmission having to absorb all the shock on downshifts, now the computers do a much better job of matching the revs more smoothly. Pretty impressive what can be with software these days.

It's not the standard version of the OEM blip but it is loosely based on it. It's been heavily reworked for much better performance. I couldn't be happier. I was going to upgrade to Biturbo, but after this I changed my mind bc I am much faster now anyways with the blip (not possible on biturbo ML).

Didn't even see a formal post by Eurocharged.

Perhaps still in development or not real.

Would love more details on this TCU upgrade as it becomes available too. If all it took are software updates that would be good news. It would be a great addition to the engine's symphony with the added blips, but only if there are minimal to no sacrifices in reliability.

So there is no benefit from getting the blip upgrade for C63 owners then with pre-FL cars?

Curious to see why Eurocharged hasn't chimed in yet.

Anybody from EC reading? can you confirm this?
