Remus powerizer?
Noticed some kind of piggyback tuning on the Remus website. Any thoughts or experience on this? (seems interesting in order not to lose the factory warranty on the engine).

1) Piggybacks eventually lose their effectiveness, when the ECU relearns: https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-c63s-...eman-tune.html
2) There are so many parameters monitored by Benz, and many from realtime and past data (ie not only the current state of the vehicle when you take it in to service) that you will still likely be flagged as modified: https://mbworld.org/forums/w212-amg/...tech-tune.html

The first link is nothing more than a guy saying "I heard this might happen." With a good piggyback, the car's ECU will never even see the altered data so there will be nothing to "relearn."
The second link is about MB flagging cars that have full ECU flashes.

As for #2: You pay to play. Regardless of flash or piggy, if you're modifying your vehicle from stock, expect that if that modification directly affects something that breaks.. well, them's the breaks. Better hope your aftermarket company will stand by you.

not sure where you got that info from , but if that were actually the case companies like Dinan, AFE, rebellion, Active Autowerke on and on would be out of business. a piggyback does not lose its effectiveness.
