Got a Weistec CPC/TCU Tune last week what a difference its even more of a weapon now! would recommend Weistec products and the guys were absolute legends cant speak highly enough of them nothing was an issue, they remotely down loaded all the software from there HQ. All i had to do was get to the CPC unit which was a piece of **** thanks to some info from CalBenzo big thanks Bud! loads more torque better gear shifts much sharper throttle response and most of all the speed limiter has been lifted thank ****! cant speak highly enough of the guys there!
Got a set of catless made in the UK by MCT fantastic fabrication so going stage 2 next
What sort of numbers does the tune proclaim?
was strongly considering the GTS-Black with about a 70hp/80ftlb increase.
The CPC/TCU lifts a lot of the standard limits that the Mercedes unit restricts so more torque speed limiter removal etc! I have a map already on there so mine is around 750bhp 1000nm! The difference the CPC TCU is massive I would have done even if the car didn’t have a map highly recommend! We are currently in a lockdown in the UK so waiting to get on a dyno to get catless fitted and go stage 2!
I tired out the EDOK CPC module/tune for my car, but had issues with it. They were very professional and awesome with support, so I'd recommend trying them, just didn't work out for my 2019 E63s for some reason. The search for a proper CPC solution continues....
I have all 3 tunes from Eurocharged. I had all 3 done at once, so I can't comment on each one individually. I don't have any before and after numbers but a huge difference from the butt dyno. There is even a feeling of torque steer in the steering wheel when on it (I'm not actually sure that is the term for it?). It's now closer to the rush I feel when dropping the clutch on my R8! I haven't actually had the chance to drive the car much, however.
Be careful with tte companies who try to get the most out of the engines guys... i won't want to squeeze every bit of horsepower out of an engine and topping it off with a TCU tune, it might be bit too much for the transmission.

Brabus 800 doesn’t have any transmission upgrades! 👌
No mate only had it done 2 weeks ago it’s been snowing and icy this last week! I do know that the speed limiter has gone though! For me the product I have 💯 works 🤠
They cant TCU. Only CPC and many people are not happy with it.
that’s why I decided to go with a tuning company instead!! I find it difficult to believe that AMR weistec etc wouldn’t be capable of doing there own in house! However I could be proved wrong 😑
I’ve been running TCU & CPC combo since after break-in and it’s absolutely necessary especially if you want the most out of your ECU tune. I got stock turbo GLC63’s in my group with intakes only running 10’s. My car is so much better performing with TCU CPC and paired with a high level tuner like Labworx it’ll put your car on another level.
Got a Weistec CPC/TCU Tune last week what a difference
Congrats on the tune..I'm curious with the Weistec TCU tune do you find that your gear shifts are more aggressive now vs stock? Would be great to hear if it has improved the shift points and responsiveness.
