looks great man, and btw, go for as much HP as you need you know? there are also bragging rights to consider
ever consider some side markers? use W221 side markers as they are a perfect fit


that's your only pic?? unreal!


enjoy the ride

2014 CLS 63 AMG S
AMS ECU Tune for 2014 CLS 63 AMG S

Hey all,

I am completely new to these forms and just picked up a brand new 2014 cls 63 amg s. I was researching and was told by a good friend to go for the AMS ECU tune that would add around 150 hp and take the torque to 830+. How easy is the process? Do i just need to get the ECU module removed and shipped to AES to do their thing and they send it back to me?

Please let me know if its worth the price and if you get the bang for your buck?

Also, the car is under warranty and I wanted to make sure I do not void the warranty.

Any help would be appreciate. BTW, the stock cls 63 amg s is a monster itself.


Please Help!!!

nice car! pic?

there are many good tunes and most people are very happy with them, you can read up on several threads here from people who have tuned their CLS63's

however, there is no guarantee you will keep your warranty, regardless of what anyone tells you, I spent considerable time investigating it

even if a MB dealer implies that is should be fine, as was the case with me, in the end the decision to cover a specific problem comes from Mercedes Benz, not the dealer

I decided it was just too cost prohibitive to take a chance on having a significant engine failure not covered under warranty, so I passed on the tune

If you want more power, I can vouch that its a great upgrade. If you think the car is a monster now, wait til you tune it. AMS will turn the ECU around in a day and get it back to you. Its very, very easy to remove and reinstall. Worth every penny.

What kind of gains can you expect from a custom tune on a CLS 63 ? HP/TQ

The shop that tuned my SLS claims they can get gains of 80HP and 114TQ with a CLS 63..That's pretty impressive for less than $2000.00.
Apparently they have a Dyno chart to back it up as well.

We'll see, i'm picking up a CLS63 next week for my daily driver.
