When you have 420 hp and 4WD on a compact hatchback like this there is no reason whatsoever to 'upgrade' it in any way. Enjoy what the factory made and leave it be. If you want to be quicker, take a track driving course instead of modifying the car.

i've found the more mileage i've put on this (on my a45s) the more it's opening up, it's popping and crackling more, feels like more power and learning the sweet spots helps too. it's great on the 1/4 mile, and i'm sure it's great to track. having only tracked it once, i'm not use to tracking, i know there is a lot more in it than my full potential as a driver this car offers stock ootb. it's super fun for sure and i don't know why i hear the comments from you that others in your circle say that it's boring. it certainly is not, though from mod pov this might be the case for now

I actually wanted an 8Y rs3 instead, but the a45s was basically the same price as my 8V, but it was 30k cheaper than the 8Y. I did test an 8Y, and i must say it drives pretty similar to the a45s.

[@julianadams2206]

Great video and interesting to learn about the mods done so far. The E Venturi intake looks lovely. My key question is; surely MB has locked the ECU on the gearbox to protect it for longevity. Presumably there is a margin of tolerance built in above the stock power levels. However adding all the extra power must shorten the gearbox life or risk a catastrophic failure. If the gearbox does fail post mods the unfortunate owner will have to suffer the cost of a new gearbox as the warranty is voided by the modifications. At that point the fun stops.

[@kengotfried]

You're right about the difficulty in getting upgrade parts, but if you look around you can find them. Now I have upgraded the turbo to a MachGrade (the only one I could find for the A45S) and the improvements are being limited as you say. But my understanding is that replacing the CPC will fix the problem, and CPCs are available for the A45S, from Weistec for example. I'm going to have it done next week (I'm in Australia). Meanwhile for brake pads I'm using Endless ME22 - which I have to get sent out from England! For the previous model A45, it was all so easy.

Be careful with turbo upgrade, my friend blew his motor up and spent the money ‘on the right parts’.

@@beamtweez1210 Yes I know what you mean, but that's the risk when you start doing modifications. I blew up the original turbo, and when Mercedes refused to replace it under warranty (because of the other mod ifications) I decided to try the upgraded turbo.

So here’s a question for you or anyone reading this. Are the ECU’s being hacked/unlocked by the tuning companies themselves with in house developers, or are there 3rd party companies/people that are just dedicated to hacking and unlocking them? Like for the Mk8 Golf platform, was it one company that finally cracked the code, then they could sell this on to tuners that we’re willing to pay?

[@VuBeClan]

Tuning Companies actually don't do the development of the unlocker, it's usually people that sell the Tuning Softwares (or hardware) like bFlash, ECUTek, etc. You're completely right, it's usually one person who cracks the CBOOT/SBOOT of the ECU and then sells it to companies. Although it does happen that sometimes that they find the same exploit, but some companies wait until the first company has released their exploit, then proceed to sniff it out and implement it in their own system. It's rather not that hard to write a tool for it to flash the ECU once you have unlocked CBOOT/SBOOT which is the bootloader of the ECU.

Interesting. Thanks for your reply 👍

[@markbradshaw1831]

Great job again , informative as always , being a fellow owner of a 45s I find the gearbox kind of ok and came from a facelift rs3, the only issues I seem to have is what you touched upon in the video and that is when driving on manual you can soon hit the rev limiter with the quickness of the revs , looking forward to more videos keep up the good work 👍🏼👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻

We have the GLA 45 which I believe is the equivalent to your A45s. I have ran in to the same frustration. No tune yet. We have a armytrix cat back in the mail headed our way to the states. In California we can’t mess with our cats or downpipes. This is a great channel. Will be following closely.

[@bat33.12]

In the UK you can't really mess with down pipes either unless it's a track only car, you need a sports cat for the road and if the car had a GPF fitted it should stay on the car to be legal. The Police are increasingly cracking down on decats and exhaust mods and will seize the car as it's not classed as roadworthy and therefore has no insurance. In the UK there is an MOT roadworthyness test for vehicles once they hit 3 years old including emmissions. The other possible issue with Police and exhausts now are so called noise cameras which have been trialled, and set for rolling out in more ares, if it's over the set dB it triggers the camera and a ticket or worse is heading your way. My A45 is just fitted with the stock AMG sports exhaust, I may put a system on it in the future but no messing with the downpipe and cat

Looking forward to seeing the content. I've got an A45s, its a fantastic, I've had it new since Mar 2021. The problems ive had are low coolant (twice) and squealing brakes - they changed the pads, apparently its really common. They've got a different part number for the new pads. Not too bad for just over 2 years. I like mine so much, im going to buy another, I'll be ordering it in September, for March delivery. Ive got mine in 'Digital White' - it looks so good (when clean)..... its not too shabby when shes filthy. Im undecided yet as to what colour im going to choose. I quite like it in 'Rose Gold', or will it look like an hairdressers car? (If you've not seen the colour, it is on the Mercedes configurator). I don't want back paint - its too hard to keep it clean, dark blue you can see the swirls in the paint, or any dark colour you can, Mat Magno...no chance, I'd be too scared to take it out and it would have to be PPF'd to protect it. so it looks like 'Rose Gold' or a light silver.

Love your videos and the progress on your cars mate. Fingers crossed the development comes soon and you can make the A45s push the numbers it deserves. 👍
