Default Eurocharged tune questions

Hopefully the guys from eurocharged can chime in but I got two questions
The last time I was at the site I saw there was a vendor in Illinois and When i clicked the link
it didn't give a location , so is there a vendor here ?
My second question was about what i just saw , it looks like an obd 2 scanner but it flashes the ecu ? I think , I'm just wondering if i were to purchase that would it come with the flashes pre installed or is it one of those things where you can switch between a valet mode and sport mode for example?

Thanks in advance guys

I do believe that Eurocharged still has two locations in the US, Chicago area and Houston. They do have an ECU flash kit that can store three or four different tunes depending on your mood.

I don't think they have a Chicago area location anymore
They used to be only 12 miles from my house....but no more

Well i know there's a guy on the forums here that works for eurocharged and maybe he can confirm this , but do you know the location of the Chicago area one? There's no address ?
The main point if this post is the fact that i don't have a computer and from what I've read you have to set up an appointment and hook your computer to the car and they'll walk you through the process , if i understand correctly.
I'd like to avoid this if possible

Unless Jake is able to do a local tune when he is in Chicago, you will have to do a remote tune. Their shop was moved to Houston. If someone in the Chicago area has the cable and a laptop, they could drop by and away you go. I am waiting on new cable myself...old one no longer works.... There is a way, to have more than one tune. EC sells a device that will do that for you... There are other vendor agreements out there, but I think the closest shop would be north of Columbus OH....

I just asked as there is a member pulling his hair out over his car (the link where I asked).. didn't know if it might be an option to take a look or not.
