Need Advice | Best ECU Tune for E63 AMG

Hello Everyone!

Need advice regarding the best ECU tune available for the W211 E63.

I am looking for something that would not blow up the engine and shall prefer not having to ship my ECU to get it tuned.

Fellow members have suggested Eurocharged and Buckhead Imports Performance.

Appreciate all suggestions and advice.

Thanks
Hasan

Hasan .. there are numerous writeups on ECU tuning and choices .. there are ones that are aggressive , designed for track cars or Dyno queens.. , some tend to be on the not so safe side of an everyday driver car, and some are conservative , like Kleemann and Renntech , although Renntech offers different tuning depending on personal preferences and tend to be expensive . YEs remote tuning is available nowadays by many , EC, Speedriven, Dynomat ..in your case I would suggest finding someone with presence in Dubai just in case .. I bet there is a Renntech dealer where you are ...

Thank you Sir. This is exactly what I was looking for. I need a safe tune and don't mind if I gain 30hp instead of the advertised 40.

Rennntech don't have a dealer in UAE.

Kleemann have one. But I know their dealer and don't want to go near them.

Love it....
These guys worked with me night and day to make sure the tune was right.
I had a lot of issues but they were able to overcome it and give me a safe reliable tune.

I'm sure Jerry and Jake wouldn't mind say if you were to fly them over, put them up at a hotel, and have them tune your car for you in person. I mean Dubai is a pretty happening place!

Very Nice!

Let's see what their expectations would be if they were to visit us here in Dubai.

Dubai is a very nice place. I am sure they will not be disappointed.

Yes Dubai is a great place but that will be one heck of an expensive ECU tune ! Call Jerry , at EC , he is a great guy to talk to and he will work something out with you .. remote tuning is easy as long as he gets a reliable Internet connection

I'll be back in Dubai in about two weeks. I have a 2007 E63 that was tuned by Jerry at Eurocharged. The difference is amazing! If you want to meet up and see the difference, just let me know.

Also, when I got my tune a few months ago, nobody could remote tune the E63. I had to ship my ECU to Texas. I don't know if this has changed recently though.

Hello Everyone!

Just wanted to thank everyone for their help and guidance. My heartfelt gratitude to everyone.

I have decided to go with Eurocharged.

So far the experience with Eurocharged has been excellent. Very knowledgeable, polite and helpful people.

Waiting for the programing unit to arrive.

Well, it hasn't worked out yet.

EC could not find the source file for my ECU.

Now the only option is to ship my ECU to them. I think I will pull it out today and send it over.

Thanks
Hasan
