Now that's dedication!

The view count on this thread probabaly puts it in the top 3% of all Black Series threads, you have owners willing to throw money at companies who can come up with this and yet its near dead silence on the modifiers end. I assume this takes a highly skilled crew to get it right and most don't have the engineering talent to pull it off at a price that would make it profitable for them. I hope a wrong though.

we have done it on other platforms, give us a little bit. We just got our CLK63 Black as well as our C63 black...

What exactly is the point of throttle blipping? Can't you do it manually?

Rev matching on downshifts, which relaxes the rear end of the car when pushing it hard. Besides that, it sounds very cool.

With a manual transmission yes, with the automatic it's sort of useless since the computer arranges everything.

It's a little bit over rated for a slush box ... but, I guess it does sound cool.

I'll pass

Great!! Keep us updated

What about in tip-tronic mode?

Then TCU is still in complete control. And when you press the 'down' button it's still not clear exactly when the gearbox will change. So you press the throttle hoping it's in the right moment which it won't be most of the time.

I don't want to over simplify this but tuners always "borrow" code from one model to insert into other cars. IE they borrow Audi MAF codes for a hitachi maf conversion on a Porsche.

Did I overlook that video+sound ?


EDIT : oops, I rather overlooked what's been psted about this already -> shame on me . . .

Very difficult with an automatic transmission, matched rev via computer is much much easier.

Just curious for an update, still working to crack the code as they say?

Yeah how about an update!?

any news??

Has anyone else cracked this yet so I can purchase?

WTDoom - were you in Henley-on-Thames on Saturday 30th September?

I posted on mbclub.co.uk about seeing a CLK63 BS which sounded to me like it blipped on the downshift and one of the members pointed me to this thread.

Gents the modification is very complex , I'm not sure it can be done elsewhere . Need a particular skill set ( no offence to any tuners on here )

It may well have been me , I'm often around that way .
If it was blipping , it was me for sure . Are you local matey ?

We live not far from Henley. We'd been to a talk in the Kenton Theatre and you rumbled, popped and burbled past as we were leaving.

It was you: I had a look at your clips and the registration matches.

Yes , I checked . It was my mate driving it back to mine

sorry mate , no idea of laptimes . was running pretty well though . it was a historic racer , fia papers etc so true to period .

Hi Doom can we get some more videos please?

Sorry maverick , the serious is away for the winter . Have a private Christmas trackday that I may use her on , if I do there will be videos .

God that must sucknot being able to drive it all year round

i don`t thing so......
