Isn't Ronin still on suspension here?
Please excuse my ignorance here, but is the CPC software installed through the OBDII port like the ECU software is? I didn't see anything about the install on the GAD site for their stage 1, but admittedly, I didn't look that hard. If these numbers are as good as advertised, this seems like a worthy upgrade for $6.2k or so! Who's going to be the first in the US? I will hold off until I'm closer to my warranty expiration!

ecu obd, yes. but for GAD i am betting you mail ECU in too and they flash on bench
tcu/cpc you must mail in to replace
it is 20-25% faster than just ecu tune so i think yes
for $6.2k-$6.7k shipped with tax, worth it

4th gear pull. 3rd gear is worse for me. stage 1 tune. passenger in car. very bad time! this is proof CPC/TCU tune are amazing and worth it. i take back any **** i said
2.3s slower than ecu/cpc/tcu from GAD

You can send ECU and CPC them and they send it back. Can do all in 1 week with DHL express.

what fuel is being used on 5.4s run? how much hp/tq on dyno? what is weird is... this is in theory a stage 1 tune because downpipes are stock, but it is much better than all cars here with stage 2 tune + downpipes by a longshot

Hi
Awesome results from only a Stage 1.
The car is completly stock hardware and have a ECU and CPC tune.
What to say? Its a difference like night and day.
2 seconds faster with only a proper tune. I think its about 780-800 cranck horsepower.
Job was done by GAD Motors.
I have friends with only ECU Tune and they loose about 80 horsepower without doing CPC. There is not much companys which can do it.
Its a heavy car weight about 2100-2150kg.

There is a GAD E63 with upgraded Turbos run 950hp without probems. So yes the Stage 1 is bullet proof.

I dunno... This is my stage 1... ECU, TCU, CPC tune... Stock hardware aside from drop in filters... 93oct...
Not quite as fast but I could see his results as POSSIBLE... Very aggressive time obv...

GAD is one of the top tuners of the MB platform and if anyone can do it, they can.
Some comments on here did not age well at all!!
Yes without at least a CPC tune, the W213 will not go much faster then stock with a stage one or two ECU tune.
Ronin shower his lack of knowledge as usual
