will do!!
Thankfully the AMR Brand Ambassador happens to by down the street from my house was able to answer all my questions.
i haven’t had much time to drive it however, it’s “adapting” burples we’re immediate. The power is building. Can’t wait to drive it more

I have EC tune and the rep told me that they tune with conservative numbers. But if you want a more aggressive tune, higher numbers, they can do that, too. But then he said that might be going out of the territory these engines/trans can handle. The tune def changes the car. It's a day and night difference. There's no way I would remove the tune off of my car now lol stage 2 tune should be coming around this summer for me. And if i get around it, I MIGHT try to install the meth/water kit. But that's a long shot.

Haha yes. There is a major change. This car slipped very little when flooring from idle. Now, tires slip a little even when I floor it from 30 ish mph. My rear tires only lasted me 7k miles lol.
I did remove the resonator and mufflers, but the sound isn't that pleasing anymore lol. So I'm thinking to go cat-less and install a performance resonator to get rid of the drone. Its just the cost of having the downpipes fabricated and installation that's holding me back from it. I think it's est to be around $1,500.

So far so good, I was expecting more low end power to be available however after 3500 RPM and when that 2nd gear hit the back end starts to lose control. Which is exciting. I had my resonators removed and currently running Magnaflow mufflers which sound great but it does have that annoying drone from gears 1-3.. but after 3rd gear the drone goes away. I love the burples.
I am looking to get a set of CLS63 AMG mufflers.

Usually I've read it being done to domestics cars such as camaro, G8, mustang and so on.
