Eurocharged CPC/TCU/ECU tuned 2020 GLC63 results

Hi guys, just wanted to share some results for the new software tuning released from Eurocharged we just installed on our 2020 GLC63. Even though its only been 2 days, I'm just blown away by the results and over all feel. Have a feeling it will only get better with more miles, better fuel and better weather.

From what it seems the 2020 couldn't be OBD2 flashed until now! Last week Eurocharged just released they now have the ability to remote tune the ECU/TCU and CPC (a new CPC must be purchase) on 2020's. All tuning is done remotely on line via Team Viewer which took about 30-45 min's for all 3 units to be flashed and programmed. Cost was 4400 for everything (may change I have no clue since I don't work for them) which does seem costly but to be expected since there is more road blocks including the CPC unit tuning thus the added cost with this triple package. From what it seems the CPC/TCU tuning is really the biggest pieces hindering performance on these newer models, especially mine. Being an avid dragy user (love the damn thing) I was excited to tested what our 2020 GLC63 ran stock for 0-60 and 1/4 mile compared to my last 18 GLC63s. Sadly it was a big difference in performance and I don't solely blame the lower hp/tq between them as much as the newer torque management system (CPC) which was hurting performance especially with shifting (major bucking/delay from 1st to 2nd since its removing torque). Best 0-60 stock it could run was a 4.14 though most all 0-60 runs were realistically in the 4.4 second zone which IMO is sad since our 18 GLC63s could run 3.75's stock. I've attached some before and after dragy times, mind you these are in SWF high 95% humidity which is really crapy weather right now. Can't imagine what she'll run with better weather and da. Current fuel is 93 octane with 1 gallon of E82, full weight. Big thanks to Jerry and the EC crew, I'm extremely impressed with just software tuning only has done to her, its seriously night and day difference. From 4.1 to 3.1 second 0-60 and to 12.36@110.72 to 11.31@118.63 is surely nothing to sneeze at, weather was actually worse with the tuned times too BTW there are a few guys on the whatsapp that have recently received their package too, so feel free to join in there as well. Any questions I can help with just let me know. Brad

Thanks! Not sure why but i just didn't feel like installing the JB4 even though I know it would give a great value for performance. From the looks of things seems like a few other guys will be getting theirs up and running this upcoming week. Just wondering how long it will before wanting to do more mods lol That damn slippery slope again.

Very impressive gains. So your saying that if you don’t upgrade your CPC and get a tune, the performance will not increase by much because of the torque limits?

we are assuming so based on the Solo TCU/CPC tuning alone performance gains posted in other threads. The 0-60 performance increase with just those tuning done makes a huge different. The TCU/CPC seems to be the missing pieces for tuning these cars at the moment.

I just recently got Euro Charged tuned Stage 1(stock dp's) via Mygenius hand held obd2! I have to give props the Euro Charged Cincinnati crew for taking care of my transaction and answering all my questions. Anyways, I was blown away by the Stage 1 tune, its a completely different animal! It pulls hard and smooth(easy mid to high 11's 1/4mile) which I was looking for, and I'm very happy with the results. I asked Eurocharged about my stage 1 tune if It a needed a re-map and they said no need for a re-map, unless I'm going Stage 2 full bolts ons.The 9-Gtronic can handle up to 1000nm of torque which equates to 700+ ft lbs of torque(crank) so Stage 2 will make sense to have a TCU re-map. I'm sure it will compliment my Stage 1, but right now I'm very happy with the end results.

I have a GLC63 with a Renntech tune. I added the Solo TCU/CPC tune recently and it reduced my 1/4 mile time at the track by 0.7 seconds which is a massive difference. The Solo tune far exceeded my expectations.

That is awesome and I believe it. How long have you been running the TUC/CPC tune?

What times were you running with just the Renntech ECU tune?

Dont mean to hijack the thread at all, but Im anxiously waiting for my 21' build to come from Germany. As soon as I get it it's being tuned by Weistec as they have an ECU tune ready, and are close to releasing their CPC and TCU tune. As far as I've been told, the 21' models cant be tuned via the OBD port, have to send it in. Really hoping that this new break means that it wont need to be removed and it can be done via the OBD port. Also accomodating the 3 tunes, I have a set of downpipes as well as a W.4 turbo setup from Weistec and a water/meth kit that will all be installed. Really hoping to break some barriers here without sacrificing overall reliability.

Looking into doing the TCU next in my 43. The torque limiter thing in 1-2-3 sucks. I am leaving a lot on the table according to my eurocharged dude. Nice numbers

Nice. Please post your thoughts as the regular tune doesn't address the torque nannies in 1-2-3. I am hoping it is immediately noticeable after the tune.

Not sure maybe it is something that is new for the 43's. I never saw it on the site when I was shopping the ECU tune. Either way shaving -.7 off the 0-60 easily puts the 43 in the 3's. Can't wait to get mine done. Assuming the car feels completely different down low now ?
