They do their basic tune for each model, it's just a reflash depending on your make and model. If you want to maximize it that's when you take it to one of their shops and do runs.
It's like kpro where they chip your ecu but they have saved basic tunes depending on what you have. When I had an ep3 they had base tunes for stock, one with exhaust intakes and headers, and one with a base tune for the greddy turbo.
So this tune does a basic tune of your model then if you want to increase as much hp as you can then you put it on a dyno and do pulls. But in my opinion this would require a more sophisticated stand alone system like AEM.
They just came out with a newer stand alone and I'm going to call them and see if it can work with our cars.

They talk to your ecu through your laptop. Don't overthink this.
Unless the Eurocharged stand-alone that Phister mentioned works, you're looking at a stock tune from any of the major players. That's all there is; no local tuner for you would be able to do more (though if they did, it would run much, much more than what these stock tunes cost).

I did this a few years ago with their sale and it was a bargain. At the current price it's still a good deal. This transformed my C320...literally.

Did the $299 include this http://www.eurocharged.com/products/...g-cable-detail ?
Did you have to send the ECU in or did you do it remotely?

Hi,
Do you have any locations near Boca Raton FL where I could go to tune my 06 c230 sport?
*edit: I'd be interested in the laptop cable flash for night now , but later would like to dyno tune as I'd like to do the whole intake, headers, cat delete, exhaust combo.
Is that something you guys could do?
Thanks
James
