Does anybody know where I might be able to find information on our transmissions? Not what they put out for the public, but the real detailed stuff such as hp/torque limits, temperature limits for the 4Matic before the shut off warning comes on, things like that?

Trying to find out as much about the drivetrain as I can so I know what to try and push in terms of more power. Actually, I'm going to be testing out a Mishimoto intake to see how that does.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!

Hey that's pretty solid. Thanks. Now if we could just crack the TCU altogether and check the parameters in detail....

These computers are pretty well encrypted. Hell, it took a year to crack the ECU.

Ok, if the torque limits on the DCT are around 553, and 737 on the AMG, there is no way in hell our cars are putting that much power down. That leads me to believe that traction control in normal mode is *way* too protective.

Sounds to me like the only way to get the full power out of our cars to the wheels is in Sport or Manual, yes? I wish it gave us the temperature limit for the 4Matic to figure out what incites a shut off.

ESP sport or off completely will split TQ 50/50. That combined with M mode is pretty impressive in my opinion.
