    I think the twin turbo engines are what everyone is patiently waiting for. They seem to respond very well to tuning and small modifications.

    Any way the E320 3.0 turbo diesel will get a share in this? I have a 2008 that I'd love to make adjustments to.

    Email sent. I have a 215 CL600 but i'd be happy to supply files from those cars since I work at Benz. There's a severe lack of tuning ability short of WinOLS for these cars.

    The Chrysler Crossfire is the Firebird/Camaro version of the SLK 320 of the same era. To read these cars with Chrysler's scan tool we had to use a multiplexer and a dedicated card in the DRB III so that tells me it speaks native Mercedes at the diagnostic port. If you like I can prove this out as these cars are readily available to me, if the 320's come into support.

    That platform uses an entirely different PCM and support for it is not available at this time.

    I have a 2013 C350, W204 (M276 engine) if it helps. I'd love to go in and tweak the transmission settings and how the slow throttle response acts.
    2000 T/A - Thompson Motorsports 416ls3, F1A procharger, HP tuned. Just a couple psi of boost.
    2013 Mercedes C350, wish HPtuners worked.

    How about support for a 2006 Sprinter Van with I5 Diesel?
