Powerchip after a few thousand miles
Anyone with the powerchip notice that the increased performance isn't very noticeable anymore?
Im guessing its either that the adaptive ecu has gone back to its lazy ways & I need to drive the car hard again to see the update again, or I just got used to the extra punch. I think it may be the adaptive ecu because the car seems lazier than it did when I just got the ecu update done.

yeah that's exactly how i felt when i switched from a C300 to a C350. it's been about 6 months now and I feel like my C350 was as fast as my C300. haha
it's not until i get into a C300 loaner car and I realize there is a pretty big difference.

I felt the same way after a while , driving hard helps but you have to drive that way all the time . Reset your tcu and all joy springs back to life . Resetting will cause any harm to your tune ... I made sure and talked to Matt from Powerchip before I did it .
