the owner of Rebellion literally lives about 10mins from my house and used to see his matte black a45 all hte time it was unbelievable. i tried racing him in my Focus RS and he destroyed me
I wouldn't say it's a shit idea to put a tuning box in your car, but I'd prefer to do a custom tuning with dynoruns. Every engine is a little bit different, thats why there are also different output datas on dynoruns of stock cars.. but I got to admit, that it's really easy to remove.
Rebellion Automotive, best in the business for A45 tuning. Good choice Archie, know the guys there well
Only thing with Rebellion tunes is that on the A45 forums some people have said that after 'tricking' the ECU to generate more power but supposedly after a year or so the ECU relearns the map and adapts, resetting back to stock.
These boxes divide opinion in the tuning community. I went for a revo remap on my old motor (Leon Cupra), after looking at one of these plug and play options - I simply wasn't prepared to take the risk after some of the horror stories I'd heard. Also Remaps can be reset to factory if required. Please be careful with your pride and joy guys. I'd risk it on a £2000 weekend burner, but NEVER, EVER on a £50k+ AMG.
Archie's sad cuz Paul ripped him. now he's happy. like for archie. 😂😂
fitting a box of lies and no dyno? sounds very cowboy
i did uby a TDI TUNNING box and did a dyno and it was making no where near the power they claimed
Maybe now a drag race with Paul's Renntech AMG GTS ? :D
Great to meet you at Goodwood the car looked awesome 😀
Not a fan of all these "piggyback" systems!! Piggyback systems trick the car into thinking something that's not there. People should really get a "flash tune", it's much better.
Ur AMG is stunning Archie!
Great video Archie and some fantastic gains there
Class Archie. I'm getting one fitted to my car
The fact that you can "de-tune" the car whenever you want (or need) is really really cool. I hope they sell lots of them so that they can create these magic boxes for more cars/brands/models.
This kind of power boxes are only connected to 4 sensors. It's basically misleading the engine central unit (ECU = the brain of your engine) on injection parameters, boost pressure and engine temperature.
And it's done without any data loging or dyno tests... How can you guess the power increase ?
A custom ECU remap would have been so much better for your engine.
Great car, now a real beast!!
Archie! the vents under the headlights, see the 2 horizon flowing lines ? paint them black! will look sick
Awesome, next will be induction & exhaust, then it'll be even better :)
Nice ride.
I have a pre facelift A45, wondering what the power increase is on this engine?
That guy looks like the host off first dates lol
Sean Walker yes he really does!! Couldn't put my finger on who he reminded me of! Lol
Haha so weird init
Love Archies honest reaction/excitement!!
Hi Archie, loved the video mate, I hope it's as good as you say as I have ordered one for my A45, can't wait
Mark Galloway send it back mate and look at piggy back boxes. Fine for a 10k motor not a 50k one. All the R&D merc does and your just using a cheap box to run your pride and joy! Map it or keep it standard.
Mr Tee thanks for your comment would this unit be bad news for my car???
Mark Galloway it's just a bit naff mate. I've got a golf r and ran a box for a few months before moving up to APRs stage 1 map and the difference is night and day. Piggy back boxes trick your car which isn't good as they also take over running your car without the safety parameters your Ecu uses. A custom map is made for your car only with the a45 you would be looking at close to 450bhp too.
Powerbox on A45 amg what a tuning !! xD you need a jetta
Yes
im getting this ASAP!!!!
Great vid
great! I have the A180d (109 hp, 26 Nm) and I'm planning on tuning it in January. I'm really looking forward to the extra power it needs since it's already a beautiful looking car, just a bit under-powered...
26Nm :D
save the money. you get used to more power so quickly.
my first car was an opel (vauxhal in the u.k.) with 60hp. then i got a skoda octavia with 130hp. coming from 60hp this thing felt like a rocket and i thought i would never need more power then it had. after some weeks it bored me and i tuned it with a box.
still bored me after a year or so and i went with a skoda superb with 170hp. that was okayish but i chipped it to around 200hp and kept it for a while.
now i have an audi a6 with 313hp and it starts to bore me again... see what i mean? ;)
YamahaYZFR6RJ05 yeah but I would say go for a minimum of 150bhp. Makes pulling out of roundabouts, just general driving etc way more enjoyable and safer imo
Chris Scott correct me if I'm wrong, I think 150bhp is around 127hp.
127hp are 18 "raging horses" more than he has right now... so next to nothing for a car at around 1,5 tons
decent discount that.pity I've got a fiesta st!
You nned to get it on a rolling road to really see the power :D
I saw this car in Basingstoke today. Heard it before I saw it
I got plug & play superchips really easy 5min install & unistall 👊
Love your videos Archie! Im also looking to get an A45 myself but the insurance quotes are absurd. Keep up the good work!
+lilmoalip thanks mate. You would love it, great car!! Hope you get it sorted.
can I do this to my alfa romeo brera 3.2jts sv q4?
lilmoalip check a company called brentacre for insurance they are really good ... they specialise for people that want to get sporty cars
Devon Chard thanks! will do.
Just subscribed epic !!
damn that a45 is nice
What does 4 clean starts mean? like start the car, stop the car, then repeat 3 more times?
Stock 0 to 100 kmh in 4.2 sec. Now around 3.9 sec whit 430hp.. good work .
Pd. where is new Exhaust Sistem? Change it !!!
+Chris RR Coming soon 😉
Hi Archie, when you're pulling into the garage at start, what exhaust are you running? Stock? Mine does not sound like that!
Chris RR not to he that guy but it's "system"
its stock
not to be that guy, but its "be"
Does it affect the insurance by blacking out the badges?
It's similar to the jb4 on my 335i.
do you still have the ferarri? why do you not use it ?
You should have done a dyno run to show a real gain of power :)
Just put a deposit down for a new one today! they had a really early build slot so delivery on the 17th of this month!! judging by your experience with the a45 it should be a wicked experience! yes Archie!!
The supercar expert how much did yours cost? I was looking at one today!
43 with a 5k off deal
48k spec
got 5k off deal for new one?
yes mate - took some haggling they wanted to get shot of the build slot
Just wish I could do it to my corsa :(
wasn't it better to reprog the onboard PC instead of placing a addition case ? probably less power gain with this type of boost. not sure
15mins for a 50bhp and 100Nm torque bump, yes please. nice one AH
I know you said you are going to change your car to keep us entertained but you shouldn't because you have an awesome car and everyone is entertained by it anyways
AHH i want one for my Prius +50 hp WILL BE DREAM!!!
Hello mate seen your vid got same car thinking of doing this is it really that noticeable after tuning if you could leave reply would be appreciated as wanting to get done this weekend
nice vid
Any reason you didn't go for a remap?
Is it because you want to give the car back after the initial rental?
i need this for my kia picanto, i mean seriously.
425hp you should be in the low 3 seconds. How much is your boost now?
Is this an alternative to ECU remapping or can you use this and an ECU Remap and get the gains from both? IS this just a plug in ECU?
Fabii it's a crappy alternative mate. Some generic software running your expensive car not good. He wants a full custom map. These companies that sell theses boxes just play on the 'it won't effect warranty' that's their selling point.
Mr Tee Ahh, I see. Its just an off the shelf remap that you can turn on or off...
I live 10 minutes from Rebellion... looks like I'm spending some money XD
Did you do it???
40 hp... SO MUCH QUICKER OH MY GOOODDD
did Rebellion told you what difference of maintance you have to do after plug and play tune? and what reliability/weak spots after doing this ? I am thinking about doing this stage 1....
Just get a proper map, you will see how much better the car runs. This is a cheap piggy back Ecu on your 50k motor mate.
That A45 is so Nice i buy One
Ohhnoo a powerbox :(, now you can say goodbye to your car soon :(!
For cars like that you only have to go for custom chiptuning!
Do you reckon it would be a good idea for an m235i ??
n55 in the m235 is tuning heaven
archie strudwick should try a DTUK box! If it's the one that has 320PS standard they take it up to 360PS and adds 55Nm of torque! :)
50 more horsepower for £599 fuck that
please do a launch* control!!
TheZOFlex 💥😂😂
Great
let him talk plz you can do the acceleration after
This guy looks like Ben stiller from zoolander
I'm going to prove that everyone can do it, by having the manufacturer do it for me.
You should've measured the 0-60 before and after
Ben Stiller :D
Seems to be £860 on the Rebellion site... not sure where his £599 comes from.
Also, what's the 0-60 / 0-100 gains from this?
+Tom Lind if you email them. It will be £599.
Ah, thanks :)
can you send me what the parts are called archie
thanks
Put your car against Supercars of London again and see how it does
harry kapacos the AMG GTS is tuned Aswel
Do you still have this in your car?
Did you have to pay for the upgrade or was it a 'Freebie' for advertising their business?
Good telemarketing
Mate I'm sorry but this an of the shelf tune for an a45 and it cost me £45 for a base tune to go from 130 to 180 hp on my diesel that's stupid £500+ is like custom remap money
Now bigger turbo please new trans tuffen motor
Never heard of this company till now, would not trust my car to any1 who isn't a well known company.
How come others are talking 600 and 860 quid. The site says it's only £501 for mine, and for that I gain 79PS and 98nm :)
they break your car, do not buy it
Jack Lambert Yeah, I already had a word with myself. Two things: 1, 408PS is already enough, I never think "I wish I had more" so don't know why I considered this, and 2, It's a great way to invalidate my car insurance.
Thats exactly my thoughts, 470bhp is plenty for me, especially through the back tires! Once you stop having fun in a straight line, go sideways! ;)
Armytrix a45 sounds best look it up on youtube
How much torgue does it have now?
Pieter Bloembergen whatever the new facelift A45 already had plus 100nm torque
Yeah he sad +100nm in the video, I'll google what it was originally ;) +Salman Ali
Google tells me it is originally 475nm (+100 now)
please put it against SOL's Merc AMG again after tuning !!
Should of gone to renntech
get it on the dyno and get a rolling road tune
cheapest way to kill engine, awesome
Is it getting quicker 😂😂😂😂😂
How much
So is the warranty void now? :(
Sean Walker Yep, regardless of what the guy says Mercedes will be able to see every change made to the ECU.
This is the same of a race chip ?
Why did you not go GAD TUNING please reply
Where do you and Casey Neistat find your music?
SuperSuperAllons93 same taught but i gues they come from joakim karud
I'm also really interested.. and also Shmee150.
i call that a bullshit until i see some dyno numbers, lol magicbox XD
Ffs he is telling you the process and you keep interrupting him man cmooon
Rematch with paul?
Wouldn't risk doing this on my merc, not good for the engine and not worth it
doesn't tuning affect the car's warranty?
vice randy watch the vid..
vice randy Yes it will, and despite what the chap at Rebellion said changes to the ECU are recorded and can be traced during servicing.
if you get a plug and play box like this no because you can just take it out anytime. if tou remap the actuall ecu on the car then it does invalidate your warranty.
It's still recorded as being connected and if it's something Mercedes don't recognise they will question it.
I can promise you that.
Can someone explain me why this is bad for the engine?
Comes with a soundtrack included.. Allah Akbar... Kabooom
Watching this a year on, I’ve got a recent thing about A45s.
Always a BMW man, but I’m fascinated with this little motor. Not an Audi fan. Too
Hooligans and young lads driving S3’s about these days.
Not for me.
I'm just worried about the trace of the tuning if anything goes wrong, there is no guarantee in this world.
Nick Mouyiassi tuning boxes are better than a remap when it comes to this as you can just unplug them when you need to!
i noticed the 33 on your license plate... does it mean you are 33 years old? :)
