I've been tuning rotary engines for like 10 years. A friend of mine is asking me to tune his supercharged something Mercedes and he has friends who will be interested in tunes also. What do I need to tune a Mercedes? From my searching I might need 2 programs, one to read the file and another to edit it? Any chance there is an all-in one solution because it seems pretty crude editing the binary file directly without a nice interface with all the maps pre-defined. I'm newish to this area of tuning so explain like I'm five if you could. Thanks.

Hello friend.By tuning rotary engines for like 10 years you mean engien tuning or ecu tuning?Because if you mean ecu tuning you should have some decent tools by now.Anyway for tuning A Mercedes you should have good stable tools like Kess v2 master for OBD tuning,K-tag for BDM tuning with a nice BDM frame and a decent software running in windows xp sp2 or sp3.Software in my opinion should be Winols-it is by far the best i have tried almost all but maybe it will be difficult for you..try Vagsuite for start it is so easy!The tools i meantioned above could be bought as chinese or european clones for money saving but i doubt if they will work on a new Mercedes ecu.If u find something difficult from what i have said try googling it you will sure find it.Hope i helped you bro i am learning also day by day..
