The ECU tune will not yield as much gains for the NA VA (vs. TTV8 in 2012+ E550). Contact OE Tuning for current pricing (less cost for NA V8).

According to the OE Tuning website the closest dealer location to you is Blitzkrieg Tuning in Montreal. Probably easiest thing to do is ship your ECU to Blitzkrieg or OE Tuning directly. I believe most folks just ship their ECU for the tune vs. onsite (which is what I did). Good luck!

You actually have to send your ECU to us in California to install this tune.

Looking forward to bringing in my '11 E550 n/a coupe this month for tuning. How much lead time on appointment do you guys need. I'm hoping to come in on the morning of the 26th?

Nothing planned as for Dyno. I will try to give an accurate assessment of what to expect for the n/a engine vs. what we are hearing from the bi-turbo folks.

I'll be driving over to OE tuning on Thursday from Vegas. Good to read posts from people who have had their tunes for years and are still happy! Did you get your tune done yet Kaiser?

I got my done last Friday. Going back this Thursday also for a re-tune and some additional test. Torque needs some tweaking. Overall, satisfied with service from OE Tuning. Both Rocco and Jeremy. Looking forward to some fine tuning so i can give a full update on how well the tune performs on the n/a engine.

Removal of Blue Efficiency badge and Chrome Side Molding:





[How do you remove the badges and chrome without damaging the paint? Heat gun? What kind of buffing out do you need to do in order that nothing shows when you are done? TIA. I just got a 2012 E550 Coupe today, with 13k miles. Looking forward to a tune also.
