Deep experience with the M177, M178, M139, M256, and M133 AMG engine families. Servicing, tuning, hardware, and custom builds for every modern AMG from the A45 hot hatch to the GT63 S E-Performance. Developed in-house at CADE Technologies, Largs North.
AMG is the heart of what we do. Every member of the CADE team has worked on AMG-specific platforms for years — from the handbuilt M156 naturally-aspirated 6.2L V8, through the iconic M177 4.0L biturbo, to the new M139 handbuilt four-cylinder and the latest M256 inline-six with EQ Boost. We know these engines inside and out.
Our in-house CADE-FLASH platform supports MED17.7 (M177, M276), MG1CS024 (M139, M256), and all the associated 7G and 9G transmission controllers. We have developed calibrations for every major AMG variant including custom Stage 2+ packages for the C63S W205 that deliver over 680hp. Australia's first forged M177 build was completed in our workshop.
Beyond tuning, we service, repair, and refine — custom titanium exhaust systems, CADE-developed race downpipes, carbon intake kits, and crank hub solutions for high-mileage AMGs. Whether it's a weekly-driven C43 or a track-focused Black Series, you get the same level of obsessive attention to detail.
From logbook servicing to full Stage 2 builds — every package tailored to your specific AMG platform.
Logbook-compliant AMG service using genuine parts and AMG-specific fluids. Warranty-safe.
Software-only OBD tune for factory hardware. +60–100hp on most platforms.
Full bolt-on package. Downpipes + intake + aggressive calibration. +120–180hp typical.
Complete AMG coverage, old and new. Select your platform for specific tuning data.
Discuss your AMG, goals, fuel, and driving style. We recommend the right package for your platform and use case.
Full XENTRY health check plus AMG-specific inspection (crank hub, turbo play, exhaust valves). Baseline dyno if tuning.
Installation of hardware and custom calibration on our Dynotech AWD dyno. Every map refined for your specific car.
Final dyno pulls, road test, and tune report. You drive away with a better AMG than it left the factory.
Every modern AMG platform. C63 (W204, W205, W206), E63 (W212, W213), A45 (W176, W177), CLA45, G63 (W463), GT/GT63 (C190, X290), GLC63 (X253, X254), S63, and classic M156-powered models including C63 Black Series, E63, and SLS AMG.
Yes. The M177 (C63S W205, GLC63S, E63S) is one of our most-tuned platforms. Stage 1 delivers +60hp / +120Nm on 98 RON. Stage 2 with downpipes, intake, and custom calibration delivers +120–180hp / +250–300Nm. Full M177 builds have exceeded 800hp at CADE.
Yes. We diagnose and repair crank hub slip on M177, M178, and related AMG V8 platforms. Preventative crank-pin installation and hub refurbishment are both offered. Contact us for crank hub assessment.
CADE-developed downpipes and race exhausts for C63S W205 (from $1,950), GLC63S W253 (from $4,800), W204 C63 full titanium systems (from $8,250), and custom one-off titanium builds for AMG GT, E63, and G63. All hand-built in Adelaide with 3-year warranty.
Yes. We maintain and tune classic AMG platforms including 6.2L M156 (C63 Black Series, E63, SLS), supercharged M113K (CLK55, SL55, E55), and M275 V12 biturbo. Engine rebuilds, supercharger services, and exhaust upgrades all available.
Typically 2–3 days for a Stage 2 package with downpipes, intake, and ECU tune installation. Full dyno tune session included. Longer for complete exhaust systems or bespoke builds.
