A little clarity

Just the facts Mam, just the facts.
Renntech has a highly respected reputation. Another tuner offers professed same for less than half.
Still others offer chips or tuners for 69.00.
Without doing a research paper, what is the actual experience or technical assessment here.
A DAV doesn't need to spend unneccessary dollars.

Anyone can tune a car as long as they have the tools and software for it.
So it goes down to customer service, reputation, expertise and technical knowledge.
Renntech is a well established/reputable tuner. What you pay is the brand basically and what goes with it. IMO They are probably the most expensive but they stand behind their products. I wouldn't have them if my car didn't come with their tune already if you ask me.
So many tuners claim HP numbers here and there. I would say stick with the known ones :Weistec - Kleeman - Eurocharged ...

In addition, you also need to consider stability of the software. The ecu is essentially a computer, and modifying it with faulty, unstable software will lead to problems down the road.

Any tuner can modify the parameters of the ecu software. But it takes an experienced tuner with the R&D to back it up to make an ecu tune worth it...i.e. Renntech, Kleemann, Weistec, etc.
