The Mercedes-Benz GL450 4.7L Bi-Turbo is a powerful SUV with amazing features and function. One of the best mods you can do to the V8 turbo engine is a ECU Flash. The VR Tuned upgrade adds more horsepower over stock with an increase in torque. Overall, the driving characteristics are vastly improved while providing you additional benefits that your SUV craves for. The increased performance will allow your SUV to tow and haul more without struggling for power. The biggest difference when you flash your SUV is the overall improvement of the power curve. Your SUV will have much better throttle response all the way to redline.

How to Flash Your ECU?

  • Use the Alientech Powergate 3+ handheld device. This device is a touchscreen module that lets you store your original and tuned files to easily flash between them. See Instructions Here.
  • Use the DimSport handheld device.  You can flash between these at anytime.  See Instructions Here.
  • We can bench flash the ECU. To bench flash the ECU, you must remove it from your vehicle and send it to us. Once we receive the ECU, we will prepare the tune file and then ship it back to you for reinstallation. We do not solder or modify the ECU board at all. All ECU tuning is done via bungy probes that have a needle tip to provide an electrical connection.
  • Bring your vehicle to our facility where we can use our Master Cable to flash your vehicle.

For reference this ECU is a Bosch MED17.7.3.1.
