Test out the rear sunscreen to make sure it's working properly. Only use it like once a year. Turn off Auto AC in full blast as the other party can't hear what I was saying over bluetooth. Manually down the speed as it was 92 degrees today. Weird thing is when I was dialing the call, the AUTO HVAC did turn down the speed. Once call connected, it's went back to full blast.

Got OE Tune on it, attempted to install carbon AMG rear diffuser but could not figure out how to get the stock diffuser off, once I do that then doing a muffler delete to a striaght pipe to AMG quad tips!

I noticed a slight quicker acceleration and it seems as if the engine is louder under hard acceleration. But honestly with the small difference from stock to tuned I think it is just hard to notice physically. Do you have any other performance mods you want to do to yours? I am thinking about headers and cat delete possibly down the road.

You should get the stage 3 OBDII tuner from Performance Chip Tuning. Also, get the Sprint Booster. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

I did the conversion a while back and have a detailed video on how to swap it. It is a must if you want to freshen up the interior!

Hmmm, I've never heard of any other people trying this tuning. I also don't think you would get much more HP/TQ out of it then compared to a well reputable company. Especially when it comes to the 5.5 NA engine there is not much you can do. Sprint booster also seems to be one of those things that just tricks the gas pedal to provide more output from less effort.
