W177 A220 4matic
How much torque is safe for an A220?
So I am looking to do a stage 1 on my 2019 A220 4matic. The car is fairly new with only 12k km's. I've looked around and most of the tunes I see is 250hp and 400nm torque. But some tuners does 240hp and 450nm torque! Since I have 4matic I'm actually leaning more towards the 450nm tune. 10 hp wouldnt be that noticeable i think. But I have some questions:

1: is that much of an increase safe for the gearbox? I'm going from 350nm to 450nm.
2: would they still be able to tune it with a nice power curve so shifting doesnt shock?

Thanks for your answers.

Turns out the max torque for this 7G-tronic is 400nm. Looks like i will go for the 400nm tune.

Good luck. I’ve been thinking about maybe getting a tune in the future. Are you in the USA as well?
