Thanks for watching! :-)
Finally getting to seeing what an already highly strung AMG 2.0L can do. Really appreciate this content vastly more interesting than the two a penny B58 & EA888 content on every single channel bar none. Both epic engines but nothing new to show now
100-200 km/h would now be interesting 😎
500hp that'll be a riot to drive
Brilliant. Why are just the front wheels turning? Is it FWD until AWD is needed? Thanks
Yes
Actually they decouple the rear diff so that they only do the run on the front wheels since it's all wheel drive but front wheel biased, you'll notice they do similar things with the e63s but with that only the rear wheels will be running because they decouple the front diff
@@shay3k Thanks. So, like a haldex system?
God you don’t half ramble on, get to it!!
Why wasn’t the rear wheels linked on the dyno
What a sound difference didn't expect that
by far this is the best video of upgrade system with cheaper price!!!! keep it up...
Thanks, will do!
500bhp in a Mercedes hot hatch what more could u want! I love watching this build. Im looking at buying a a35
Excellent video was looking for golf R merc A45s
Adjust the seat kinetics for a more comfortable seating position.
Always thought stage 2 included intercooler.
Car has a chargecooler.
Naw... it's intake and down pipe plus removal of cat
On the A45S W177 Models the Charge System is more than adequate for Stage 2 Power, the Charge System is far more advanced and efficient than a traditional Intercooler as found on other Brands vehicles such as VW/Audi.
No ways, he owns a good looking car? Who would've thought. Wouldn't be surprised if he put some wooden kitchen table as a front lip
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol lots of jealousy on display
What colour is your A45s' 😳
@@Prxgs blue.
@@thenurbguy2023 I bet
The M140i all day!
Let it go man,if you going be complaining don’t watch
@@rlspluto5811boring fucjers - it's not like they're aren't at least 50 M140 "projects" on UA-cam at any given time
Feck off and rewatch the same old same old
Excellent and informative video again for anyone who’s looking to go either stage 1 or stage 2
Every bit of content is explored and explained keep up the fantastic work looking forward to the road test 🔥🔥@estperformanceuk great work again look forward to getting my a45s booked in for stage 2 when I return form my holidays 👍🏼
You put some serious money into it 😮
Will it pass MOT after all this ??? Also sorry Luke maybe I’m being a little innocent but I thought these cars were 4 wheel drive ????
At 500hp how much boost has the stock turbo to deliver?
How much was the before and after on the insurance?
Isn’t it illegal to remove an opf if ur vehicle comes with one
Yes.............
I thought that it was AWD?
Similar to VW/AUDI Haldex systems .send power to the rear wheels when traction is not there on the front wheels
Mo powa baby!
Gear changes seem slow?! Might just come across like that on camera??
It’s absolute tosh
Unmappable gearboxes…
Unfortunately, the Gearboxes are not yet Tunable, once this has been cracked then we can play around with Shift Speed, Clamping Pressure, Heat Management, and far more.
Maybe on Camera, it looks slow but when you drive one at this power and compare it to an older model A45 they are absolute night and day differences in terms of Gearbox Drivability.
I have a stock one and the gear changes are instant. Fastest gearbox I’ve ever seen
@@zIBaXiiIz I can tell you get pegged
Hello, I heard that these engines explode when there is more power from the manufacturer, and even serial engines are damaged. Do you know anything about that? Do you know what year it was updated?
I no longer have a problem with the engine
Heat shield is missing on new dp. It could give missing 0.5hp😉
Please post more videos about this car it’s a very interesting car thank you
Why your rear wheels isn’t moving on the dyno?
Rear differential might be on the way out then 😂
Se desconectan cuando el dyno es solo 2WD o falla y solo funciona el 2WD
Stage 2 , laderdruck ? 2.4bar? Danke
That air intake is a work of art
how do you make this car runs on fwd?
16:18 these cars look absolutely rude. I used to have a last gen A45 before I went to a V8 BMW 6 series lol but these look absolutely insane!
This build is coming along nicely, why no intercooler? These engines run very hot.
They have a charge cooler
On the A45S W177 Models the Charge System is more than adequate for Stage 2 Power, the Charge System is far more advanced and efficient than a traditional Intercooler as found on other Brands vehicles such as VW/Audi.
@@EST_PerformanceUK Thanks for the info on this engine I need to start researching Mercs. So on the B58 it’s chargecooled aswell all you can really do for cooling is upgrade the heat exchanger and use the meth for cooling, or you can go all out and get the CSF intake manifold for the super powered B58’s.
Can upgrade charge cooler or addition of meth at stage 3 don't really need it for these engines at stage 2.
Couldn’t see the rear wheels moving on the rolling road 🤔……….
Just insane what they put out of this 2 liter engine with a few modifications and a good ECU tune on the dyno.
Of corsenyou cam rotund that up. We'll just call it 500. Congrats and enjoy that!
Prefer the content on ur channel when it’s about the a45s, as I’m intrigued to see what it can do,
Which brand of petrol were you using for the dyno runs?
She's a beauty Luke 😍.
Putting wheel spaces on does it
Affects the steering badly ?
Or is wheel 🛞 spaces okay to use Luke ..??
He won’t reply the guys a melt
Car sounds epic 👌
the carplay screen. ssooo annoyinggg, very nice videooo😁
He should have waiting until 2023 one. It's full screen now.
@@suhail1200 theres a 50k euros diffetent between a 2020 and a 2023
maybe even 60k
Anyone knows who to put Waze on the screen?
Android auto

Weistec engineering turbo
What’s does this do to your insurance?
What they dont know about, does not exist
@@lastnamefirstname520 Until you are involved in an accident and the police get involved...................
@@richardsealey3626 the police won’t get involved with the ins and outs of insurance. It’s a civil matter
@@HealthyMotherfcker The police will need to see your insurance certificate and drivers licence.......................
How much extra has your insurance gone up with the upgrades from standard
Probably £500/£700 a year thats what mine went up. (2020 rs6 urban) Not much.
He doesnt tell them
Are these engines using renault megane rs engines?
No it's a completely different engine. However A35 is the Renault engine but tuned.
Luke, by any chance where did you get your custom number plate/ reg plate I4 LAP?
Something I find interesting on the first run you get 360.9 wheel hp, on the second you get 361.5 wheel hp that 0.6 gain but the drag is increased so you get more engine hp ? How about the 3-rd run, you actually loose wheel hp 353.5 but the drag is way up so the engine hp is close to the second run (thats why I prefer wheel hp and not calculated engine when looking at tuned cars), why is that, how does a filter or down pipe change the drag ( the environmental values are very close), asking out of interest.
As a Australian I don't understand how that qualifies as a stage2, you guys must do things a hell of alot different. Anyways look out for my M135i xdrive f40 Competition. 1 of 1 world wide built by BMW Australia tuned by AC Shnitzer 1000bhp. Reveal in August
I'll be interested in seeing that
Nice plug
Aus “stage 2” is downpipe, intake and intercooler if air to air. In this case it’s charge cooled. This would definitely qualify as a stage 2
@deejaymattyp stage 1, down pipe, exhaust, cold air, boost, tune.
Stage 2, upgraded injectors, coil pack, fuel pump, turbo, intercooler, e85 flex fuel etc etc. Stage 3, bottom end (pistons, cams, rods, head if required), turbo, boost, tune
@@GreyManTheory Well I must be in a different Australia as a turbo upgrade has always been stage 3
Go bigger turbo
Great video, keep it up... ;-)
Get a cooler ,stock one heats soaks badly
On the A45S W177 Models the Charge System is more than adequate for Stage 2 Power, the Charge System is far more advanced and efficient than a traditional Intercooler as found on other Brands vehicles such as VW/Audi.
More power is always good 🙂
Nice video but you are still stage1.
Why are the front wheels only turning
Dyno mode
It is in fact 4MATIC, but for the purpose of the Dyno Session, we Disconnect the Rear System to allow for less heat in the Rear Differential and more accurate readings.
Is this car not awd?
Was thinking the same. Unless there’s a way to disconnect power to the rear.

16:10
Looks like low octane fuel. With aral ultimate 102 octane fuel you should easily hit 520hp.
Looking good
dyno lottery :D
FWD 27% drive loss :D really .. this car approx 460-465hp not more ... 391wheel Hp never 499 crank fwd :D
AWD approx 25-26% drive loss
and very old maha dyno all slipping .. video check guy spray wheel wd40 :D
I think you should sell this and buy the new M2 when it comes out, will beat the cars in this category and be all new for content.
The new m2 is ugly
axoxer
Hello do you do
UA-cam as a job?
Fast no doubt, but it just seems so boring. Maybe you should trade it in for the new M2?
All cars are boring eventually even lambos
seems to you fast but boring, but mine definitely isn't boring lol
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
Stage 3 it is then
A bit disappointing just 80hp gain with a stage 2 remap… 😢
I think you're forgetting how much power these push stock... For a 4cyl aswell.
This is exactly what you can and should expect to see on this model, Limitations on the Gearbox Tuning means we can run more power but we are not able to control Clamping Pressure and Torque Limitations which lead to slip if not tuned correctly.
I was been sarcastic 🤣
Is a very very nice gain considering the 420hp already has the amg 🫣
@@xtATiiKo ha ha!
Please stop this build is simply not worth it
Warranty issues? Insurance 😢
Assuming any manufacturers warranty left is clearly void, as for insurance there are companies that insure modified cars
@@markrhoden68 At a price..............
@@richardsealey3626correct, then you just pay it?
@@pb3382 Of course you do!
@@richardsealey3626 problem solved 💪🏻
You dont go Stage 2 without an intercooler. Stop cheaping out and get one
not like it's even his money anyway lol, it's bank of mum and dad
@@RiperSnifle cry more. Seriously. That shit is so old. Apart from the fact that Luke spent £50k on this heap of muck. 5cyl DAZA over this hunk of shite all day
yu must be sligthly retardet, the original interccoler is SUPERHUGE AND water and air cooled. NO NEED to change.
@@RiperSnifle he is of corse somewhat sponsored by the manifactors and est, BUT, all respect to him! and leave the childish "sponsored by mum and dads bank ENVY" in your DIPERS!
@@thenurbguy2023 of course, I would do the same if I were in his position!!
