In this video I discuss all the recent upgrades I've done to my 2007 ML63 AMG.
Let me know if you guys have questions! I might make a separate video on how to remove the ECU since there doesn't seem to be one online for this vehicle year/model.

Love everything about your channel and following your ML63 journey. Really wish you would’ve had an individual video for the process of each mod you did over the last 2 months of not uploading but i guess one big update is a lot easier on your end. Great stuff. Keep it up.

At least they make those headers for you dude. My 2000 w163 ML55, the Mother of all crossover super cars… got shafted. what you got off the assembly is all you’re ever gonna get for them. I love my ML55, she has a swagger, and I am noticing around the neighborhood a lot of cars with Red calipers. What a vision they had when designing ever single piece of her was done with extreme love and vision of what is gonna make her what she is. I love all of the ML lines. Especially the AMG ML’s. They are made to run well over 120-140 MPH running in and out of traffic, racing Porche Chayennes ( over weighted ww1 handling unarmored vehicle), and leaving them in the dust.

Hey buddy, I got my resonators cut out today, replaced with 3 inch pipe just like yours. Definitely not as loud as I expected (was hoping for bit more noise). The crackles/rumbles when revving in neutral is noticable for sure.

All the mods I want to do on my 07! I think the tune is giving you that exhaust note because I did the same res delete to mine and, while the sound is more aggressive, isn't quite as noticeable as yours. I also need to paint my calipers but plan to leave the wheels stock. Yours really look like the stock, but do have a slightly more modern look! Nicely done!!

The car looks amazing bro, I think the black on black is the best look for this car! I actually just threw on some H&R 25mm spacers on my rear with the stock 20's yesterday. It makes it look so much better. I'm blacking out my wheels myself this weekend with gloss black metallic hyperdip. I like the look too of OEM+ modified too. The exhaust sounds great, I was looking into adding some vales of some sort. My dream setup for the car would be a meisterschaft exhaust with valves. Def need to do a tune as well soon.
@monumentauto
@monumentauto 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Got any pics with the spacers? I might do a small spacer just for a more aggressive stance too...and nice! The hyperdip seems to work well from your other video. A valved exhaust would be amazing, definitely a good option if you can find something in budget!

Subbed! Does weistec also have a tcu? Did you look into transmission tuning -- why or why not? Also, will it pass emissions tuned or does it have to be reflashed to stock?
@monumentauto
@monumentauto 2 жыл бұрын
Don’t think Weistec offers a TCU tune for the 722.9 trans but they have an upgraded torque converter and rebuild kit that I didn’t need with only a stage 1 ECU tune. The stage 1 tune will pass emissions and has a carb ID now required for California tunes.
