E55 Tuned by LET/EUROCHARGED - Tampa 3/20
LET finally got the beast to come out of the cave 
First off I know people are out there skeptical and or have their own issues with said company. Let it be known that this is my personal experience and opinions and I am very happy with how I was treated and the professionalism that Jerry, Tony and the fellas from LET/Eurocharged showed me. Tony took the time to speak to me about tuning the car and Jerry took the time a few months back when I many more questions and I did not even have their products.
Short story here, I bought a car that was a stage 2- Mercedes Benz fixed an electrical issue I had with the car and flashed the car back to stock..>I tried using a local source to flash the car but the car still produced low numbers at track and it still felt as if it was hitting a wall above 70mph. I went back to stock tune and was going to roll that way till I could get it tuned on a dyno.
Jerry let me know they were coming to town and I couldn't pass up the opportunity.
Car was tuned at S&R performance in Tampa. About a 2hr drive from Orlando. http://www.sandrperformance.com/index.asp
The temperature was around 68 that morning and got to 75-77 while it was running. Tony was the man who was to tune the car that morning and was using the shop Dynomite dyno all-wheel load bearing apparatus.
He pulled the ECU to see what exactly was on there. It turned out to be a stock MB tune. Running a baseline we found that the car made decent power but was extremely lean because of the upgrades I have on a stock tune.
Stock run was 474whp and 545trq. Couple mins later Tony adjusted fuel curve a little and was able to get 502whp and ~580trq. I was very happy with the first adjustment and he said that was just the beginning.
He let the car cool down for 15 mins and got to his computer.
5 runs later and a me on the edge of my seat we got the last numbers..>
515.6 whp and 600 trq.
The solid line is the baseline run and the dotted line is the final number...Check out the fuel adjustments and my new torque numbers
So-I got to drive it back about 100 miles. The car felt each mile was getting faster or me a little bit more eager to hit the gas. I finally realized to run it right on the highway would be a 3rd gear pull and wooooowwww, she really pulled hard. The car has a problem with a tire in the front and a leak in the seal I just found out about...My steering wheel was shaking quite a bit so I did not really want to push it very hard. I found out about the tire/wheel stuff today-Day after coming back from Tampa)...Otherwise I probably would have not pushed it at all.
General opinion and feelings I have after the dyno tuning...The beast is back and when I get my wheel/tire issues fixed I will be really get some real world data
----ps. I did get one really decent run up to 120+....she was pulling like a frieght train!!
Your car is truly a beast

Those are some beastly numbers! Lol, I cannot help myself from saying beastly, all these e55's on this forum are crazy. I am guessing they removed the speed limiter? I am jealous

good to see..
btw: when you posted some 1/4 numbers before.. and you were looking for answer on the low trap speed.
I think I mentioned it was either your IAT's or stock tune.. by the dealer.
congrats on the getting the car back to healthy numbers.

As for Air Fuel Ratios- Tony will post those if it is appropriate. I do not have a copy of them but saw him working on em. The unfortunate thing right now is that I am having some wheel issues and the car is currently on a spare rim and obviously I cannot give you guys any more feedback on it. I get the wheel fixed tom. and should have the tire warrantied by the weekend.

Haha, my wheel had been shaking for weeks and the drive over to Tampa just made it worse...
I had the tire taken off and the silicon was srperated and bolts were sheared off-- probably impact on highway driving. The other tire on front is bad and it's only 3 months old... 19's would be more practical but man 20's look so nice
