Customer Spotlight: 2017 Mercedes CLA250 Gets VR Tuned Powergate 3 Tune

The Mercedes-Benz CLA250 is the German marque’s entry little sports car that boasts the brand’s signature good looks, quick handling, and a spunky engine. At the heart of the 2017 CLA250 is a 2.0-liter turbo-four engine mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission that produces 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque straight from the factory. It is recorded to have a 0-60 time of 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 130 mph.

For those looking to get a little more from the luxury sports sedan, VR Tuned comes in clutch to crank out some more power from your ride. With the VR Tuned ECU Flash Kit, you can reach 250 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque! With our ECU bench flash tune, you will experience quicker throttle response, increased torque, faster turbo spool, and a top-end that pulls very hard to the redline.

How do you flash the Mercedes-Benz CLA250? Well, you simply use the Alientech Powergate 3+ handheld device. This device is a touchscreen module that allows you to store both the original and tuned files to easily flash between them. And that’s just what our customer James Monetti did to his beautiful 2017 CLA250 below. With the Alientech Powergate 3+, doing an ECU flash right from the comfort of your very own garage is now easier than ever before!

This device connects via the OBDII port to read and write your vehicle’s ECU program. The device also lets you store up to 5 different files and also has a diagnosis feature. The device is extremely easy to use which you can see demonstrated in the video below. 

Powergate 3+ Features: 

  • Direct connection to the vehicle via OBD port.
  • Allows you to store the original file and up to 5 other different mapping files.
  • Standard connection via USB port to PC for instrument configuration.
  • Ease of use and maximum safety for you and the end customer. 
  • The wizards prevent owners from writing an incorrect edited file.
  • Powergate3 + reads any errors with DTC code and allows you to delete them.

Note: The Alientech Powergate 3+ allows you to flash your vehicle via the OBDII port with the VR Tuned ECU software.  Purchasing this device does not include a tune. This device only works with VR Tuned as it is locked to our system.
