DMS remap SL500

[mrfunex]

Just after a bit of info really...

I've got a 2004 SL500 and have been looking at getting it remapped. Has anyone here done this? Are the claims of 308 -> 340 bhp accurate/worth it? Could my money be better spent on anything else?

I like my SL because it's like surfing a wave of torque, which is what I think "defines" the nature of the engine. Does the bhp increase give a big performance hike in a useable area? Or somewhere daft like 130mph and above?

DMS very proficient at what they do, give them a call and they will talk you through it, they generally dont go for the all out power to make it undriveable way.

Have you had a DMS remap, or any remap on this engine Craig?

I'm sure DMS will tell me that they are the best company around, I was wondering if anyone had personal experience. I know the car isn't particularly common, but I've found absolutely no first-hand experiences/reviews on Google whatsoever! I'm presuming if I was unhappy with the results, a company like this would put the car back to standard for little/no charge...

I have the same motor in my r129 (m113). I have twice emailed DMS to ask them what they could do for me and on neither occasion have they troubled to reply.

As the OP says they claim 308 -> 340 bhp and a "much sharper throttle response".

Just call them - they've always answered when I've called.

sorry just saw the question, yes had many remaps on many cars from DMS and always been very pleased with the results. Surprised they didnt answer phone thats not like them, i'd try again, good luck.

Thanks Craig, once Christmas is done and dusted I may have to start the ball rolling...
