Thumbs up OE Tuning & Benz Works...

OE tuning straightened out my Tune in record time after last round of mods (Speedriven IC's & larger Fuel INJ's) it added massive cooling & 4%-5% more Fuel thru entire rev range. Thank you OE (going back after larger Turbs are in & retune for 100 & Q16 should get very interesting)

Then Benz Works stepped up in diagnosing my car, I'd been chasing my tail thinking it was an ESP problem/malfunction, Serge checked it out & found the plugs were improperly gapped causing my break up/stumble on hard acceleration etc.. (I've been dealing w/this problem for 1+ yrs dealerships don't know squat) Thank you Serge!

I know this is the W211 forum but I figure we can ALL benefit from another positive experience w/these 2 forum vendors...

ALOT of people recommend Serge, he has a very good reputation in So Cal.. Also heard OE goes the extra mile to make it right.. Looks like you found a good combo..

Sounds good!!! As mentioned nothing but good things have been mentioned about them both. Having people you can talk to face to face in your backyard makes it easier for everyone involved. What mods made you feel that bigger injectors were needed with stock turbos??? You seem to always have something creative stuffed up your sleeve. Any good dyno's comparing stock injectors? If not its time for a 10 sec time slip!

I had a great experience with Jeremy while sorting out difficult issues with my car during the tune process (problems had nothing to do with tuning). He even stopped by my restaurant and had some fun.

There are two sides to every tuner and every shop, so it is just as important to discuss the success stories as well as the failures (pun intended
Thanks for sharing Ricker.

Hey Steve!
It is Willow in Arlington. A few members have stopped by and we would love to see you there. Shoot me a text if you ever want to come by.

I really want to make it to MIR next week, but it seems every time I commit something with work comes up

Hopefully I will see you guys there. Debating between fried chicken and chili

Bigger INJ's in prep for larger Turbs, but it has def added unexpected perf across rpm band Dyno's seem to start arguments so I've ceased posting them, powers def going up though...
