Eurocharged V5 Tune

I've got the Eurocharged V5 Tune on my 09 C63 P30 Package.

Question though.

Is the Downshift Blip different for C/S/M Modes?

Is M the same as S, or is S more aggressive than M?

I can't really tell to be honest.

on mine I notice a definite difference when I manually paddle shift down with the V5 tune, then it does itself in C/S mode (I usually leave it in S), definitely not as raspy and aggressive sounding as when in M.

Depends on where you are in the rev band.

Interesting. I still really can't tell between S and M. I mean, I still use the paddles in "S" Mode too to downshift.

I want to say M is a little more aggressive, but...lol.

I assume the higher in the RPMs you are, the more aggressive the blip is?

yes, higher revs makes more pops. And M is more aggressive than S with shifts.

M is definitely more aggressive when it comes to downshifting

i drive 100% in M mode (once car is warmed up) and have had V5 tune for a little over a week now. i find that the downshifts are much more aggressive IF i have minimal change in throttle whilst downshifting.

ie. if i lift off the throttle during downshift, it doesn't sound much different than before. however, if i keep my foot on the accelerator and not really lift off (or only minimally), the 'blip mod' definitely shows.

I hate to tell you guys this, but there is absolutely NO difference what mode you're in. The "cool sounds" are a result of where you are in the RPM range, what gear you're in, and how quickly you are slowing. The EC 'throttle blips' mod has nothing to do with the TCU - it is entirely ECU-programming, and not drive mode dependent.

Exactly. Eurocharger does not have a transmission tune for these cars. Whatever it came with from the factory, it is still the same. You will get more engine sounds and power from the tune making the transmission seem like it's doing something different, but it's not.
