Weistec is not what they'd advertised
Weistec flashed ECU and it stall at 131MPH. Weistec website state that they eliminate top speed limiter. My car don't even reach it factory max speed limit yet and it stalled.
https://weistec.com/all/mercedes-ben...u-upgrade.html
Weistec website clearly state that
"Eliminate Top Speed Limiter*" (*Results vary based on model and modifications.)

It stall at at 2:55 in the first clips and at 2:40 in the second clips at 131-132 MPH

Did you contact Weistec about it?

Also those flames coming out of your friends Q50 are cool :B

If I read the fine print on Weistec site, the programs are to be used off-road for legal purposes.
So what off-road you can drive at 131 ?

What? You've never heard of a "race track"??? That's what they mean by "off-road"...

How about before you condemn and skewer the company, you contact them first? It could just be an honest mistake on the tuners part.
