Product Description
AMG took the M177 further in the W213-chassis E63 and E63 S, and it shows. This revised version, sometimes called LS2, swaps in twin-scroll turbochargers and a round of running changes over the earlier C63-generation calibration, and the result is a genuinely stronger engine right out of the factory: harder-hitting from the line and pulling with a broader, more linear top end than the original M177 tune ever delivered. AMG used the E63 S as the platform to prove just how much more this hot-vee, dry-sump, flat-plane-crank architecture could give, and from there LS2 went on to anchor some of AMG's biggest names: the S63, the G63, and the AMG GT 63 4-Door Coupe all run this same revised architecture, real proof of how far AMG trusted it to carry its highest-end performance vehicles.
Weistec's calibration for the LS2 is a software recalibration, taking that already-elevated baseline and pushing it further still, refining the engine's own control logic with the same OEM-level discipline behind every Weistec ECU tune. Knock protection, thermal management, and factory diagnostics remain exactly as AMG designed them. Because the LS2 starts from a higher factory output, this tune is calibrated specifically around that revised hardware, and it still finds a meaningful gain everywhere in the powerband, roughly 132 horsepower and 173 lb-ft of torque over stock (individual gains may vary by vehicle).

Complete The Upgrade
An ECU tune alone won't remove all factory limits or fix how power reaches the ground. Add these to round out the upgrade with no limitations.

What is a CPC module?
The CPC (Central Powertrain Control) is a separate control unit that manages things like the active exhaust valves, radiator fan, intercooler pumps, and speed limiter. On many newer Mercedes-Benz vehicles, it also houses torque limiters that can hold back an ECU tune from reaching its full potential.
What is a TCU tune?
A TCU (transmission control unit) tune delivers faster, firmer shifts with higher line pressure, reducing clutch slip and increasing the transmission's torque capacity. It's a worthwhile upgrade on its own, or paired with an ECU tune for a fully sorted powertrain.
Good to Know
- This is a reflash of your original module, not a stand-alone unit.
- Power gains vary by vehicle, modifications, fuel, and operating conditions (ambient temperature, altitude, etc.).
- New or upgraded spark plugs are always recommended when tuning.
- Product may not be emissions compliant. Check local laws prior to installation.
- Always use a battery charger during programming.
