Ok I come from a long line of fast cars, and I am in love with my C63S but i definitely want to make it as fast as possible . I was thinking of doing downpipes , and getting a rowdy tune. So far i got K&N air filters and a Carbahn Stage 1 W205 Tune... and some drag radials . I did 11.7 @ 120 . I feel like this tune i have is not any better than stock. I think i May buy the rebuilt factory turbos for 2900 that CarBahn offers, however i may not do that for a month or so.... who is the best tuner for these cars ? I know this thing has A LOT more power to unleash given the factory equipment. Thanks !
If the tune isn’t giving you anything from that company.. which your 1/4 mile time shows (unless track conditions were bad) why would you get turbos from them? Honestly been on this forum for a while now and never even heard of that company

Just because they are only $2900 bucks and i haven’t heard of anything else in that ballpark ... but i just want to know who is the best tuner for these . I want to get as. UCB reliable power out of this thing as possible . Doesn’t seem like anyone is trying to answer that question just yet
Nobody is answering because you clearly haven't done any homework on your own. You get what you pay for.. If you want the fastest c63 out there you'll need at least $10k....
We can easily tune the car, we have done thousands of them. We have the handheld and tune on sale for 1499 right now plus shipping. Handheld allows you to tune from home

Throw a JB4 on it so you can do proper logs and evaluate the tuning you have, then use the JB4 to add 2-3psi as octane allows for improved performance. It can limit boost at the launch too for improved traction to shave the 60' down.
I have a DME stage 2 tune... done through OBD port, with catted downpipes... supposedly 550whp per Dme...feels and sounds night and day from before. Monster surge. I'll get on dyno when time permits. A local with the same setup minus cats ran 11.2 at 124. Well worth it.
Have you though about the Dinan Interceptor box. No need to mess with a tune and can be brought to stock quickly with socket insert. A vendor on this site sells them. I have one installed in my c63S.
I also have the Dinan tune and the car pulls so hard now. Had to upgrade tires because I couldn't keep it stuck to the road. I would definitely recommend it.

I've been reading comments about the Dinan piggyback for some time now, and I haven't seen anybody who has it say it "sucks."
Dinan is just big $$ for little gains. They can't even compare to the JB4 system we have.
We're constantly working on new things and improving our maps. Data logs, dyno numbers, dragy times, 1/2 mile NFZ and Shift sector runs under our belt to show for development... I don't see Dinan or any other "Flash" tuner coming out there competing with us

I checked out you website and seen that you provided dyno numbers with a air intake, but I could not find those intakes on your site. Do you have a link to those intakes?

Due to race season some things took longer than we anticipated. However, they're in production at powder coating right now
We should have them up on our site for retail sale in about 2 weeks. Full intake system, with heat shields etc.

Agreed !! I decided Dinan over JB4. I googled both products, can not find any negatives feedback about Dinan Elite tuned. The only bad feedback was the price. As for JB4, I actually like it more over the Dinan because of all the features allow user to adjust and the price is half price compared to Dinan. I was leaning toward JB4 from day 1. But since then, I decided to go with Dinan because of many negatives feedback issues on JB4 after installation. JB4 did resolved all those issues but I don’t want to take that chance. I just want a plug-n-play tuned. Just my opinion.

A bug popped up in our first batch, things can happen. We caught it early and solved the issue very quickly. Sold plenty of the JB4 for the M177/M178 now with lots of positive feedback. Our JB4 is plug and play, fantastic customer service, very user friendly, and we actually have a car in house that we develop from and race

Understood and great job resolved all the issues. My other concerned that I forgot to mention was, the lack of known shops that done the installation in your area. I sent email twice asking for a recommendation shop in your area that installed JB4 on C63s. Both emails replied, the instructions is on the website, any shop can install it. I believed that any shop can do the installation but I personally want a shop that done it before to do mine car. I would definitely buy the JB4, if you refer a shop to me that done the installation before. This start to sound like I’m bashing you but it not. Take it as a feedback, make change and your business will be better.

The warranty to me would be very important should I decide to purchase a tune. Any tune would be chump change compared to the cost of an engine replacement.
