G Wagon AMG Project competition!!!

[GAD Tuning LTD]

One of our dealers in Essex has a little G Wagon project on the go! They are part way through an AMG conversion which we are going to have a little competition!

1: What engine is in the conversion.
2: What issues do we have to map out of the ECU to get it to run.

The winner will win a free remap!

Just so you know this is rather spontaneous

Regards

The GAD Team

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!

1. It's the M104 found in the C36.
2. Dont know much about the issues, I guess the main one would be fuelling

 

[GAD Tuning LTD]

1: You got the engine correct!
2: Keep guessing

1: What engine is in the conversion -A big one!

2: What issues do we have to map out of the ECU to get it to run - all the ones that don't work!

(as you can tell I have no idea - but wanted to have a go :Oops

As the car is rhd my guess the original has a 103 engine so issues of mating the wiring to the loom and the instruments seem likely and perhaps the biogradable nature of the wiring itself. As to a the ecu the most likely gear box is a 4 speed auto so are you changing that autobox to a 5 speed electronic unit plus setting the engine up to produce torque rather than outright bhp. Quite a lot to do plus braking is ok with 170 bhp but adding another 100 or so might make you consider discs at the back, not an easy conversion.

I will give a little clue! The vehicle runs goodish!!! There are TWO structures of the ECU we need to map out!!!

But its hard not to give to much away

M104 engine as has been said.

mapping issues id guess traction control/ASR (whatever you want to call it) as id imagine the loom isnt there or it needs different settings to work correctly on a G-wagen

also guessing that the fuel/ignition map needs adjusted to accomodate a differing airflow due to the changed induction set-up from the engine's original

Well Pete you have just samshed one of this issues .... Well done

Many Thanks

auto gearbox in C36 and manual in the G wagen?

 

[Sonic27]

Obviously you need to resolve the issues occurring between the gunglepin and the fuelling pressure of the oojimmywatsit as a result of an increase in the doodah due to the engine swap?

It's a doddle!

 

[GAD Tuning LTD]

Nope keep guessing! Will keep it open a couple more days then will have to end it.
