I’m doing Upgraded Turbos
I just did the Eurocharged tune earlier this week. I’m very impressed and happy with it.
However, I’ve decided to go ahead and have Eurocharged do a turbo upgrade and dyno tune.
Pure 900 Turbo Upgrade
The above link may not be the exact link, but I think it is.
I am keeping my stock downpipes as I don’t want to have any issues with emissions testing.
I’ll post up the results on 12/18 when I get back in town with the car.

When I got my viper years ago, I did all the standard bolt-ons, including a supercharger. Then I met a new friend who let me drive his TT Viper. It was only a few weeks until I sent it to Underground Racing for a complete TT build, billet pistons, rods, etc. Turbos are the best thing ever.
With the GLC, I love this car(suv) so much, I just had to give it some love.
My next big challenge is whether to do 21" or 22" wheels.

Weistec is receiving my turbos next week so hopefully I’ll have it back the same week.
I am am worried because I requested that they swap out all gaskets and seals but one of the seals is a 10 day out part.
PJJB, I had Pure Turbos reach out to me and offer me the same Pure 900. They are located in Oceanside about 20 min from where I live. They even came down to 4200 for the kit but weistec warranties all the work and does their in house tuning. I got a little turned off because I heard of some experiences from some of the shop owners about Pureturbos.
Just a a heads up. They all agreed on my choice of staying with Weistec.

Interesting. Thank you for sharing.
The guys are eurotech spoke highly of both weistech and pure. They also do their dyno tuning in house.
I am committed st this point. I’ll let you all know how it goes.

So I got the car back. I left the stock downpipes, which I knew going in would be a limiting factor. The car had 1017 miles on it when I dropped it off. The car put down 556 AWHP on 93. The power curve was the same shape as the factory curve, but higher across all RPM's. I'll have a photo to post tomorrow. No check engine light...just more power. Going in, I told them that the car is a daily driver and reliability and longevity are top priority, so a very safe tune is important to me.
If I decide I want more power, I'll do the downpipes to get into the 600's. Other than that, I'll throw in some K&N filters tomorrow and leave it alone.

My car car hit the dyno with a simple tune, downpipes and air intake and is laying down 525awhp.
I spoke with Weistec today and they are very much on board with the vehicles well being opposed to going all out and reaching most power at the cost of damage. They reached a consensus of a minimum of 600awhp and that being a very reliable and safe tune. One thing they mentioned was transmission but we will see what numbers they will achieve by Friday.
As as far as the meth injection goes it is an awesome addition to the car. As long as you aren’t going under heavy boost the meth mixture actually isn’t used so it depends how agro you are on the pedal. I am a fairly relax driver around town but can’t help it when people line up and wanna have a go. Has happened a few times so far lol.
But it anyway Weistec said it would really add another 45-60hp off the get go adding it and their system is a direct bolt on with no fabrication needed. They didn’t pressure me into it however after the conversation I was definitely interested as they know I love power after a few weeks of knowing me.
Ill also have Weistec take some videos and screen shots of what they push out of the car.

I went with the Pure 900 kit.If I end up doing DPs I should probably do the intake as well. Eurocharged said I'd easily be just over 600 with the DP's
Where are they mounting your meth reservoir? On my Viper, it's in the trunk.

I’m really surprised that’s all they got out of your car... that is their stage 2 kit... when I spoke with them they were talking themselves up like they were god lol. Talking 750whp on 91 octane lol
Yes weistec makes a direct bolt on kit and it places the tank in the trunk or possible underneath by the air compressor.

Someone told me that the numbers claimed by Weistec and Pure have not actually been seen. They do say “with supporting upgrades”.
Are they capable of working in a complete system that puts out 800 or 900 like they claim, sure, but what other upgrades are necessary, and what tune is it?
