Will anyone in attendance have a STARS tool that can make suspension adjustments for a SL65? I am still planning on coming, but having an issue..keeping fingers crossed...

Yep, I guess I am ready to go. Had wheel issues, but all resolved..sort of...

I will let you get your ECU/TCU done first, so I can watch your dyno while they are flashing mine
I'll dyno mine when I get back here. Curious to see what your car baselines at on their new dyno. At least watching yours will give me an idea...
..and you can hear my mufflerless exhaust tomorrow too...

Yeah I've been dying to hear an SL65 with a muffler delete, vids on youtube don't do it justice. I might do a muffler delete for a temp set up before I have Paul make my custom exhaust set up. Gonna talk to him tomorrow to see what tunes we can do on the SL65, there's also a possible group buy for tuning for later projects so lets get the 600/65 owners together and start tuning these babies. Tired of seeing stage 5 55's but no love for the 600/65's, but that's soon gonna change lol

Was at the shop today at 1 pm didn't leave till 1 am base run on the dyno was at 505 whp so about 630-631 hp on the crank which is more then I expected, did an ecu/tcu dyno tune and bumped up to 563 whp so should be 703-704 on the crank.

Was stoked being the fastest HP car at the shop today until Ahmed blew me away with his crazy modded clk55 with 605 whp so should be at 756 on the crank, but I'm happy to take 2nd today with only ECU/TCU, IC pump and heat exchanger,

Car run much quicker and smoother in the, but need to drive it a bit more so the car can adjust for the changes. Will be back at EC in a week or 2 for custom exhaust set up

Glad to see a lot of the AMG guys on the fourm out today, will prob see most of you at MIR in Nov when we take our cars on the 1/4 mile run

It was a GREAT day and it was really cool meeting those that came out today! The highlight of the day was for sure Ahmed's final DYNO run... It was EPIC!!!!

Made the 5-1/2hr trip down. Thanks to all at Eurocharged DC for the service. Special thanks to Jerry, Paul, Rich and the team. Got my ECU/TCU flashed very quickly. Met a few people and hit the road to get back at a reasonable hour.
The drive home was obviously uneventful with the NY/NJ traffic, so no real "seat time" to speak of, but it feels good and I especially noticed the throttle response, a lot less mushy.
I will try to get on the dyno in the next week or so and post my improvements also.

Sorry you had to see your number fall but Ahmad waited not just all day but all year to get what he finally got. I will say out of all the people I meet you were the craziest **** lol... it was really good to meet you & we can't wait to get your car back to start working on that list we talked about

Now you my friend have one hell of a sweet ride... best looking custom "everything" AMG I have ever seen meeting you & seeing your ride was a real treat! If you decide you ever want to part with that piece of art please put me first on the list to call.

So have you guys had a chance to get a bit more comfortable with the new set up? Hey V12TTenthusiast, what are your plans for the exhaust? Larger down pipes 200 cell or catless? Sorry I miss the opportunity to introduce myself. How about you ttboost? Are you getting on your local dyno to compare?

Had some problems with the handheld. I want to dyno both tunes back to back on the same dyno on the same day. Emailed EC. Still waiting for my 2 files.

Kudos to the Eurocharged team!!!! Thanks Jerry, Rick and Paul.

I was having trouble with the MyGenius loading tool. Jerry took a half hour of his day off and walked me through and found the issue. I now have tunes loaded, car is flashed and ready to test drive......as soon as it stops raining and dries out of course...
Thanks again Gentlemen!!!
