Mercedes CLA35 2022Custom ECU Tune
The electronic brain of your car — recalibrated.
A few decades ago, some nerds figured out that computers allowed for incredibly precise control of internal combustion engines... thus the ECU was born.
The Engine Control Module — often shortened to ECU, ECM, or DME — is the electronic brain of all modern cars. Unfortunately, car makers must consider things other than performance when designing ECU software, leaving much to be desired.
Enter S4T. Focused solely on properly developed ECU calibration software, giving you the highest performing and best driving car possible — sharper throttle, stronger mid-range, optimized airflow, and a more characterful engine note.
Switch back anytime.
Before we flash a single byte, we save your original ECU file. If you ever need to return to factory — for service, resale, or any other reason — you can revert to stock at any time.
How Remote Tuning Works (Bench)
Step 1
After you check out, you will receive a form via email (FILL OUT THE FORM).
Step 2
ECU removal & shipping instructions provided via email.
Step 3
Ensure access to a windows 7+ laptop & Wi-fi - Mobile Hotspot Recommended for Data logging.
Step 4
Ship us your ECU(s). We tune it. We ship it back (Data logging cable included).
Step 5
Reinstall your ECU(s). Data log (We walk you through it)... Have fun.
ECU UNLOCK “Bench Flashing”
For certain models, the ECU must be removed and shipped to us so we can perform bench flashing. We'll send you step-by-step removal and shipping instructions when you order.
Transmission (TCU) Tune
Transmission Control Unit — TCU tuning allows us to further refine the shifting speed, ferocity, and characteristics of various automatic, semi-automatic, and dual-clutch gearboxes.
- Improved acceleration times (1/4 mile, 60-130 mph, 100-150mph, etc.)
- Torque limiter adjustment
- Custom torque management
- Paddle-to-shift delay time improved
- Increased internal control pressures to support greater torque demands and prevent slip
- Launch Control Enhancement
This vehicle has a CPC
The Chassis Powertrain Controller (CPC) is a Mercedes-AMG–specific module that governs gearbox shift strategy, clutch pressures, launch control, and torque limits. On CPC-equipped vehicles, tuning the ECU alone will leave torque cuts and clutch limits in place.
Our calibration includes the matching CPC tune so the gearbox can fully exploit the new engine torque — quicker shifts, removed factory torque limiters, and a sharper launch.

Frequently asked questions
ECU tuning is the process of modifying the software inside your vehicle's Engine Control Unit to optimize parameters such as fuel delivery, ignition timing, and boost pressure — unlocking additional power, torque, and throttle response while preserving drivability.
