Default CLA 45 AMG Burger tuning love? - 10-07-2013, 08:47 PM
Any love for the CLA45 AMG Terry? I know the C250 platform is boring but this looks interesting.

I saw the 26psi too and thought well...I guess they come pre-tuned. Probably no point in doing much unless you are going to change the turbo, too. But if you don't mind giving up some bottom end, the right turbo at 26+psi at redline could be pretty cool.

I think the Germs will all start doing that. As per numberous mechanics, engine builders and techs the Bavarians don't like seeing us mess with their ****.

BMW is laying the ground work to do that same things now. The M5 engine is fundamentally the same as the 550's. The 20's and 28's use the same engine. Soon they will start putting puny turbochargers on all of them, max out the pump gas boost and make the electronics even more complicated.

While we're wishing for impossible things, how about release a JB4 for the E9X M3 as well? :D The tuner 'market' for this car is a joke, it is absolutely ripe for someone to wreck it.

How sure are we that the turbo is maxed out, wouldn't that be too risky to the longevity of the turbo? Anyone have the specs on the CLA45AMG turbocharger? Edit: Borg Warner B03 Twin-Scroll Turbocharger but I can't find an efficiency curve for it.

I always thought that car companies build in a little room for reliability reasons, thus allowing evil geniuses like to Terry crack the code and use that room to boost up the power using software.

A45 running at wisd in sydney.
12.2 @ 113mph with a willall piggyback. Otherwise stock. Owner said he did a 12.7 stock.

Fastest N54 on road tires at wisd was dirty dog in his old 135 - he did a 11.9 (can't remember the mph and his car is an auto. Times on this track are slower than other australian and USA tracks for some reason.

Only catch is tunes for the m133 are $1250 - $2500 AUD.

Wish terry would get the JB4 to work with the m133
