I'm having some similar problems and hoping to find someone that can help with my tuning issues. I'm trying to get to 1.5 bar to see where I can safely.run my car. As you my car falls flat after about 4k and literally around 100mph.....
went with different tuner that fixed it and with his ecu tune everything works as it should, make sure you have amg fuel pump also.

so do you need a tcu tune with a stage 1 tune

3 inch full exhaust
100 cell racing cats
Custom ECU Tune
AMG Fuel pump
AMG front and back calipers/rotors
amg body kit (better for cooling the engine), new Diamond White Pearl
4matic with quaife Limited Slip Differential

Power: 723hp 1222N/m on 93 gas


To have an idea for the result. Yesterday we had dyno session with all our cars: Ml63 amg 2013, CLS63 amg 2013 PP and my cls 500 4matic. The ML63 made 691hp and 1250n/m, CLS63 AMG PP 699hp and 1380n/m (it has full 3 inch exhaust from HMS, carbon ceramic brakes..) and my CLS500 723 and 1222n/m. Same day, same tunner, same dyno.

Hi there, thanks for sharing your build, Im in the process of installing the CLS63 Calipers on my CLS550. For the front calipers did you have to do any modification, please share.

Hey Siegmann! How's it going?
My E550 was running great. +50k miles on tunes, ~35k miles on E85. 156k miles on the car, running low 11's. got hit from the rear in December and the car was totaled. starting over with an 2013 R231 SL550. stripping the E down and getting it a light as possible now, see how fast I ca get it to go!
