Before you order

What you need to tune your Mercedes-AMG C63 / E63 / GT 4.0 V8

  • An HP Tuners interface. We recommend the MPVI4. You do the reading and the flashing yourself, on your own car — our step-by-step guide covers buying and setting it up.
  • HP Tuners credits for the Bosch MED17.7.5. Reading, logging and editing are free; you only spend credits the first time you write a tune to the car. Check the exact number for your Mercedes-AMG C63 / E63 / GT 4.0 V8 on HP Tuners' supported-vehicle list before you buy.
  • A laptop with VCM Suite. HP Tuners' software is a free download once you have an account.
  • Your stock file and a datalog. The stock file is what we tune and your backup; the datalog shows us what your engine is actually doing, which is what makes the first file right.

How it works

How a remote Mercedes-AMG C63 / E63 / GT 4.0 V8 tune works, in four steps

  1. Read your car. Save the stock file from your Mercedes-AMG C63 / E63 / GT 4.0 V8 with VCM Editor and log a short drive with VCM Scanner.
  2. Order and upload. Ordering is free. Tell us your mods and what you want from the car, and upload the files. The clock starts when your stock file lands and hash-verifies.
  3. A tuner builds it by hand. Your tune comes back within three hours. Six tuners work three shifts, so the desk is staffed around the clock.
  4. Flash, log, refine — then pay. Flash it, send a log from the drive, and we revise it if needed: 2 revisions are free, each back within three hours. You pay once the tune is delivered.
