Mercedes-Benz A Class W176 45 AMG 360hp

The Mercedes-AMG 45 versions of the A-Class, CLA and GLA need no introduction, with one of the most complete two-litre engines on the market. This facelift model with 381 factory horsepower came to us already fitted with a larger downpipe with a freer-flowing catalytic converter and a sports filter in the factory airbox. On the dyno, as it arrived, it measured 368 hp and 440 Nm. With our remap it reached 435 hp and 585 Nm. But the difference is not only in the numbers: the car now builds boost much earlier, delivers full and linear power and makes full use of its upgrades. The two-litre M133 shows once again how much potential it has when the calibration is done properly. Many thanks to the Meletiou brothers' workshop in Moschato for the cooperation.
