Eurocharged Tune
Eurocharged Tune
Hello Everyone,
I thought I post this as Steve thought it might be a good idea for those SOCO members considering a Eurocharged Tune.
I just paid for my Tune and Remote Cable to have my N/A tuned, and thought if anyone else was pondering the same we could have a get together and share my cable so you'd only have to pay for the tune itself.
We would need a location with Internet in order for the Tune to be completed by Eurocharged remotely.
Let me your thoughts!
Sean

Re: Eurocharged Tune
Im not Steve, but for what its worth I just got my stock SLK32 tuned by Eurocharged today, night and day difference. They say 20hp and I believe them. Low end torque is very noticeable. Drives like a completely different car. The big thing that I noticed is the pedal sensitivity. I can tell you without exaggeration that if I were to drive it the same way I used to, I would be laying rubber everywhere. No more mushy pedal. A light tap and off she goes! Shift points have changed as well. Oh and $265 is the tune with the cable!

Re: Eurocharged Tune
OK so it sounds like a worthwhile mod. How much would the flash be using Sean's cable?? I would think we would also share in the cost of the cable right???
oops....just noticed that this special also runs until the end of march only. My baby will still be tucked in and won't be heading to Grimsby until maybe end of April.
May have to come get the cable from you Sean.

I have to get the Merc engine cover and 74mm T/body on as well. I have so much to do.
Re: Eurocharged Tune
Haven't heard from Jerry or Clint regarding the following e-mail I sent to them on 3/3:
Hey guys thanks for the quick reply! Sean (Cydetrack) tells me he has already purchased the tune and you're shipping the cable to him as we speak. We're both in Canada and have a thread going on the forum for a GTG at my place for any who buy the tune and want to join us. It'll be on a Saturday is that OK with you? I know the special is for March, how soon do we need to do the tune after we buy? Most of us up north won't have our cars on the road again for a month or two, just don't want to miss out. I appreciate this is a good deal for a tune but, if we use Sean's cable, will there be a further price reduction? I know I'll get asked so best if I have the info up front.
Thanks, Steve Collins
Both were very quick to reply to my first e-mail, not sure what's up? All of the Vendors I've purchased from (check my sig.) through this forum have always been quick to respond. Anyone else wanna try?

Re: Eurocharged Tune
Send Jerry an e-mail at : jerry@eurocharged.com or go to their web page:
www.eurocharged.comTheir phone in Chicago is: 630-496-8660.
Let me know if you do or don't get a response. I know they have been traveling a lot and Jerry's wife is due any day. Clint has one almost ready to deliver too. May have happened this past week. They have always replied back very quickly before, so something has happened.

Re: Eurocharged Tune
Steve....thanks for reporting back to us. Hopefully everything is going well for them and they're just busy tuning cars and having babies. I also hope they can cut us some slack on the remote tune timeline as I know there are a bunch of us interested in the tune but can't get our cars out of storage by then.
Re: Eurocharged Tune
If you purchase the tune there isn't a time limit to get your tune done really. Especially if all retuned are free. Think of it as a gift certificate, redeemable at any time. You should be fine buying the tune at the promotional price and getting your first tune later at any time.

Re: Eurocharged Tune
This is for those who may be following the Eurotuned threads and have already had your car tuned -
May sound crazy, but is there any improvement in fuel economy when the car is driven sanely? I'm working on convincing my wife that we need to modify a car that neither of us will ever push to the limit.
Ours is an unmodified Roadster, 6spd.
I did post to Jerry when he posted a few days ago, since there are several new folks who may be interested as I am. I did not receive a response from him directly or in general. Will probably call before the end of the month, but would appreciate owners' input.
Thanks for any comments (well, any kind comments).

Michael M:
I had my 2006 LTD roadster EurochargedPerformance tuned a short time ago, but have not actually recorded what my MPG is, but the tank is going longer. I think it about 27-28 or 2.5 MPG better than it was plus I have more torque and RWHP is 195 before I added K&N filters. I figure it is a little over 200 now. Getting ready to add 74mm TB and hope for about another 7 or 8 HP. Runs like a different car.
