OK, figured I'd better add my input to this thread since I just had my Eurochareged Remote Tune Done last Monday.

Note to the guys that just had it done too:

First Impressions: The car seems to run and shift smoother. Slightly lower rpm at idle, very smooth in gear, much smoother shifts through the range.

As far as responsiveness, base on my first drive, there was little appreciable difference noticed NOTE: My car always felt responsive and pulled very hard. I've always said it seems to have more HP and torque than what's stated in the book anyway.

As far as quickness, it's was too early to tell. I did drive the car just prior to the tune (so I could have some recent memory recall to compare post tune to). It feels slightly quicker -- but I think most of the gain seems to be on the top end, not on the lower end of the rpms. I read somewhere on the forum that another member had a similar experience upon first drive but once the car "learned" - the responsiveness and quickness was much more noticeable.


So based on my first drive, here's a few good things: Car runs and feels incredibly smooth. Responsiveness noticeable but really only in the higher RPM ranges.

Good experience with Eurocharge as well. Tune we smoothly (as long as you prep in advance) and took only about 15 minutes from start to finish.


Now for my update: Second Drive Impressions. So, seems the new tune has also awakened some of the inner beast in the low end of the RPM range now as well. Responsiveness seems to have increased throughout the rpm ranges and the car definitely feels quicker! I didn't do a throttle reset because I spent a considerable amount of time "training" it in the weeks prior to the tune, so I left it alone. I was going to try a reset if I didn't notice anything more after a few more drives .........but, apparently I didn't need to.

So, I'm very happy with the results of the tune. Thanks guys.
