Introduction and noob question on which is the best ECU tuner

hey guys

im new to the merc world, had a heap of BM's before and I was really scared to move over to a merc cause i kept getting told that a c63 wasnt as good as my m3 but then i drove one and i was sold

look, im not saying my new ride is perfect but once u hear that sound in a tunnell then u know its ok lol

anyways, i got afe intake and akrapovic on my m3, and i know all the good stuff but now im a newbie and i have no idea what to get

i did a bit of a search so i dont get flamed, but im none the wisa after looking at the screen for an hour

let me get this straight, i dont take it to the quarter mile, but i do want to spank anyone lines up against me so the tune has to perform

whatever one i get im gona go to the dyno

whats up with a canned tune and does it need to be dynoed and are all the tunes the same just different if u get mods

im gona do charcoal delete and row airboxes, i know that from my dearches, im not completely stupid

so anyways, what is the strongest tune

im gona get exhaust but not now, so dont bother about that, im gona get either mhp or evosport

im in irvine, socal

is a mailorder tune ok or has it got to be live tuned with a laptop

You're better off doing your own research and make up your mind. A canned tune from any of the reputable tuners will work good. They are all very close to each other in performance.

Ditto, you cant go wrong with pretty much any of the sponsored tuners on here and some non sponsored ones of course

Why do I think this is another setup post? Only thousands of threads on this board about tunes already. A tuner conducting a fly-in custom tuning session who is not a sponsor and cannot be named. Ad nauseum...

OP, you're in Irvine? I can meet you next week and tell you everything you need to know about tunes.

This subject has been covered multiple times.
Like Merc63 said, its better to do your own research. Since your in Socal I highly recommend going with OE Tuning.
