I think they also sell the "turbonator" electric twin turbo kits. Just don't do it.

They do show a G37 on the dyno, that's pretty convincing. But... wait... NO DYNO NUMBERS!?!? lol

Quick Google search...
AMR Performance STAY AWAY!

According to their website, your $700 gets you: "This is a direct reflash into your factory ECU. No need for a piggy back or hand unit!"

With this impressive technology, you gain "up to 30 hp increase" in horsepower and an undisclosed amount of torque, which is proven by their dyno run that shows the car will at least still be able to run after the "tune".

Their obscure chart doesn't appear to be in English, so I will post it so you can make your own false hopes of what will happen:

STOCK HORSEPOWER: 332/350HP
AMR ECU UPGRADE: 365/380HP

This chart is a direct copy and paste from their site makes zero sense to me. Not to mention those are unrealistic NA numbers.

They also have "Improved Fuel Economy" in green letters, so I'm not sure what that converts into MPGs, but we can assume it's a lot.

Another feature is that it improves your turbocharger response. This is definitely impressive. Our turbo is already so small, and spools so quickly, I didn't realize there was room for improvement (it's almost like it's not even there, lol).

Good luck.

I do not plan on getting it and it does seem fishy but the company itself seems reputable. They have been around a while and I mean you can't straight up lie if I go there drop 700 bucks for their tune and it's **** then I get my money back I would want someone to chime in that may have gotten this done on their g.....

I don't think anyone is going to chime in with experience since there are more reputable places/ways to get your car tuned for similar money.

"I recently used AMR's e-tuning, and to be honest, what a terrible experience. The customer service at AMR is a joke. I waited for days to get replies from them, and have been waiting about 3 months for my last reply."

"I just used AMR's email tune service myself and got a base map the next day and waited a week or so for the first revision, and now much like you(but not near as long) I have been waiting almost a month to hear back. Did they ever get back with you?"

You would hope it works like that, but it's not always easy to get your money back.

When I had my 05 Legacy GT I went to AMR to get pro tuned but that was with a Accessport on there Dyno. Actually looking at the site I don't think it's the same AMR I went to. The AMR I went to was in I think Staten Island or Long Island always get them mixed up.
