That is one complicated front bumper.




from press release:
The custom SUV also comes equipped with a unique four-pipe stainless steel exhaust system designed by renowned exhaust manufacturer, Remus. The exhaust's complex shape – steel on the inside and carbon on the outside – echoes the high-quality craftsmanship that goes into each component of Larte's body kits. To make "Black Crystal" go fast, Wetterauer tuning company upgraded the V6 diesel engine, thanks to a chip, to 290 hp and 508 lb-ft of torque (for the European spec GL), compared to the stock GL coming in at 258 hp and 457 lb-ft of torque.

Does anyone have experience with this chip?? Is it available for purchase in the United States? I tried to pick through the German website, but had little luck.Wetterauer tuning company upgraded the V6 diesel engine, thanks to a chip, to 290 hp and 508 lb-ft of torque (for the European spec GL), compared to the stock GL coming in at 258 hp and 457 lb-ft of torque.
This would be a superb upgrade as I get toward the end of my warranty.

End of warranty? At worst you have warranty until 2018' unless you have racked up just about 60k miles. Originally Posted by medphreak

I don't have a GL350 BT, nor do I have experience with the chip, but I believe what you might be looking for is this OE Tune (OE is in SoCal).Originally Posted by medphreak

I purchased one of these: http://www.racechip-usa.com/chiptuni...S-Spec)-179kw/
I have not installed it yet. I'll have time in about 3 weeks and I'll be sure to post a review here then.
