NICE!!

I assume you had to send in the ECU? How long was turnover?
how does it drive? was it just a Tune? How much?

Thanks

I like the eurocharged way of business!!!

Question? I see the stage 1 and 2 tunes. Does the stage 2 needs additional parts?

if not, why have a stage 1 and stage 2? Have you done this on the E63S? How does it work with the AWD?

Also, if the tune gets reflashed by accident at the dealer, how much to re-tune?

thanks

I am local to them it was a custom dyno tune, not a canned tune/mail in tune

Drives amazing believe the tune is $3,000sh

weak. Not to mention the consistency of AWD and host of other differences. Apples to oranges.

Yes, we have done a bunch of them, and AWD is not a problem. We (all the tuners) used to have a problem with torque management, but that is no longer an issue.

Retunes are free, just pay shipping of the ecu. We don't believe in re-charging for something you already paid for. The same rule applies to when you want to retune for Stage 3.... just pay shipping


NOW this is a good shop!

I assume the end dyno result for a E63 and an E63s will be the same.
Considering the S model probably just has a slightly more aggressive tune.
How is drivability? Because I drove the car all day yesterday for the first time since I picked it up in Dec.

and the Throttle response is horrible. Dead delay when stabbing at throttle. I will be bringing in to the dealer to hopefully address this. BUT, if it is normal, will your tune possibly improve this? It is really terrible. Makes the car choppy to drive. I can literally stomp the gas to the floor and lift off and RPMs don't move!! Just a delay in the throttle by wire???

But if you are NOT local to them(Me)
Then it would be a mail in tune and still 3000ish.

I just don't like how there is a different price for a tune only based on stage 1 or 2. and I have heard that they will charge you again if the dealer reflashes.


Edit, I just noticed you were not talking about renntech. My mistake.
