Has anyone had some experience with Carlsson C-Tronic Tuning box?

I'm thinking of getting one and wondering if anyone here has had any experience - good or bad.

Thanks

I've got prices from UK and Singapore (because I'm in New Zealand).
One was $2675 SGD and another was 1450 GBP

That is for the basic version (just the tuning box). The S Version is an additional 1640 GBP and comes with a larger intercooler along with the C-Tronic tuning box.

Im also curious about this. I have the JB tune but I have taken it off because it throws a cell almost every time I start the car now. If this solution didnt throw cells I would be all over it.

C180

The power gains are very similar (and in some cases better) to the Brabus tuning box.
If you compare the Brabus basic box to the Carlsson basic box - the Carlsson provides better performance numbers.

And the Brabus is at least 50% more expensive.

I was also thinking about the Carlsson performance kits.

Is there a place where I can order and buy Carlsson products online?
