Thanks,
Thomas

This tune and K&N's are my only mod at this point. I have about 500 miles or so on the tune and has been a blast every second in the seat. Ready for more power. It's an addiction!
Eurocharged - how about a GB on the pulley for those already tuned by EC?

Good stuff...I'm excited!! The tune and secondary cat/resonator delete will be my immediate mods...probably do filters as well.

ECU is pulled and shipping on monday to Houston for tune install. Had some trouble loading the handheld software...both my laptops operating software crashed so shipping ECU out for this initial tune. Can't wait to get it back and installed.

Definitely get new filters. I was lucky enough to get my hands on some ROW air boxes and have the afe pro dry s filters. You can feel the difference the way the car breathes.
Enjoy! I get about 3k miles out if my rear tires.

You can do a charcoal filter delete and leave the stock filters in. They can be replaced later with aftermarket filters if you wish.

I highly recommend the AFE ProDry filters (non oiled) over the blue AFE or the pink K&N oiled filters. They will never give you CEL, they will never harm the mass air sensor, and they have a much better filtration rate while still adding a good 80% of the additional airflow the oiled filters provide.
Had mine for 3 years and not a single hiccup. Put them in when I did the charcoal delete, it was definitely a good mod for such a low price and it also improved the engine intake noise a bit as well on the top end.

Feels like it pulls and shifts much harder and faster. I didn't have my car for very long before tune like some people may have unfortunately so I can't get as specific as others can but feels great from my butt dyno lol.

ford svt's, and C63!!!
Here's my gains using a G-tech pro for the testing.
factory stock, on Nitto drag radials gave me 13.6@102
Eurocharged tune on the same drag radials gave me 13.2@108
Adding MHP headers, catless mids into factory resonator+re-tune for the headers gave me 12.3@117.
So my results were big with the tune and simply HUGE with the headers, my times are a little slow because I'm at 6500' elevation here in Wyoming. I'd expect a solid 11 second time-slip at any track below 3500' with a decent starting line. You'll love the tune though, and they re-tuned for my header installation free of charge, so you've made a good decision! I was skeptical spending close to 1000 bucks on a tune that would only cost about 400 bucks on a ford,chevy, dodge, but the gains where huge for the price imo. Also spending 2K on used headers was very, VERY tough to swallow, but gains of nearly a full second in the quarter is worth over double the money spent. Long story short, these cars respond VERY WELL to mods compared to any domestic vehicles I've messed with.

Also, I'm still on the stock air filters and charcoals, and I'd be willing to bet there's not one bit of restriction what-soever, very very good factory design imo. If I ever go with a blower, I'll probably still be on the stock filters, as I'll test some others and "not" use them if they are no better. Many, many people/companies trying to get your money out of your wallet and into theirs.

Very nice! And that's understandable. Nonetheless I appreciate the input.
