I could never figure out what happend and I just gave up and put it in the 'waste of money basket' like yourself.

To be perfectly fair to both companies, Eurocharged did give you a dyno tune which obviously would be more capable of giving you extra power due to formulating a specific tune for your cars charactaristics.

In summary I think if anyone wants a tune from either company make it either dyno (which you cant with InMotion) OR get on a dyno or do some spirited driving and get datalogs, otherwise I believe you will feel like you wasted your time & money. Thats just my 2 cents.
True, we were able to modify some things to get that magic curve. The thing that got us was that we flashed the base tune and picked up most of the power over the existing. We just had to tighten up the curve in some places. The other point that six made was we went in and were comparing files and noticed a lot of the key maps were untouched.

I think you really hit the nail on the head though. DATALOG with our tune, with their tune, with anyones tune or even stock! Cars perform differently, and this is the best way to make sure yours is performing at its best! (or avoid serious issues)

Hands on tunes is what I would like to see.
Your right doc! We need another track day. We did one down south and really proved the tune on a crossfire. We let him run 3 passes on his existing tune (other vendor) and then we flashed him and let him run a few more times. (without cooling down, and the flash was done in 5 minutes) He picked up .3 on his average. Proof in the pudding....
