Is realistic to expect 130HP and 150 Trq gains from just the tune? I am ready to buy one I just want to make sure that I get the best tune option.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Yes those gains are correct. Let me know and I can hook you up with pricing and walk you through the process!

I ending up selling both cars earlier this year and my replacements will come soon and I will choose eurocharged again for them.
For price and service you cannot beat eurocharged.

'94 SL600,'05 SL600,'06 S65,'07 E63,'14 E63S,'09SL600 all sold, ‘15 S65,‘18 E63S,'17 SL65, '17S65Cab
I had Eurocharged tunes on my 2006 SL600 and 2006 SL65, since sold. Both tunes made major performance improvements although I have no direct comparisons with other tuners.
Since this is the W222 forum be careful to verify the gains on the Eurocharged website for the W221 can be achieved on a W222. I do not see any product listings for the 2015 and newer S63's or S65's. I have not had my W222 S65 tuned because at the time I bought it the factory 738ft-lb torque limit had not been bypassed. This is a bigger issue for the 65 than the 63 but will still limit the torque gains on a 63. Perhaps Eurocharged has since worked this out, if so I do not see it discussed on their website. Since I have a new 2018 SL65 on order I am also curious about the tuning availability for the current production vehicles.

I had eurocharged on my 15 S63 and it was IMO better than the Renntech I had previously on the same car

I have a stage 2 tune from a guy in NY. He has done many,many AMG’s. And I can verify it made a BIG difference compared to stock. I haven’t had a chance to dyno it for the power #’s. So can’t say the exact gains I have made after the tune.

The tune numbers that you read on Eurocharged's website
are the basic numbers -
Eurocharged can make whatever changes you want from
your tune - hp / tq / fuel...
Contact: solomon@eurocharged.com
It does not cost anything to ask him questions and he explains
everything so you can understand it -
I have both the ECU and TCU tunes from Eurocharged
and the difference is night and day -
I have to laugh at myself when I think about not doing the tunes
when I first got the car - even at my age the ignorance of youth
can rear it's head -
Your car will blow you away with a tune - ECU / TCU -
Please keep this thread updated if you decide to do the tune(s) -
Thank-You

OK, all. Talked to Solomon and the tune is in process. He is sending me a handheld tuner. I will upload the contents of my ECU into it, email it back to him. He will do the new tune and email it back to me for download. I will also keep the original tune so I can download if there is ever a problem. He also warranties the entire engine if there is ever a failure attributed to the program. All for only $2400. Best part is that there is no down time while I am waiting for a tune.

To obtain the TCU tune you have to send the TCU
to Eurocharged (EC) -
I had the TCU removed in the morning - went to UPS
and shipped it over night to EC -
The next day EC received the TCU - did the tune and
the return overnight shipping -
The TCU arrived at 9:45am the next morning and was
installed by 10am -
A 2.5 day turn around -
And smooth crisp shifts became the norm -
Solomon could not have made getting the
tunes - ECU / TCU - any easier -
Thank-You
