C-300 2008
I have a 08 c 300, if I purchase the tune with the my genius, will I also receive the device to keep? What's the difference between the android and mygenius? Also will I be able to read my initial(stock) ecu settings and save it on the device? Thank you

91 Octane Premium Pump Gas
Purchased devise is yours to own and can only be used with 1x unique VIN. The original read is always saved to the devise so you can remove the tune at a later time.
MyGenius vs Android is really a personal preference of delivery method for tune.

The software comes with 4 settings, with the original unloaded that would be 5 settings, is that right?

Thank you for you reply.
Can you see if that happend to yours too?
Just when you go to work, try with air conditioning OFF but with the ventilation ON and the the air recirculate ON and see if it turns off.
On mine, it provably doesn't take much than 10 minutes.

Going to drive over to Huntington Beach on the 10th to get the tune done. *stoked* If they have an AWD dyno I'll be happy to do a before and after run that they can post. It's time to do something about build sheet code M013 "Engine Reduced Performance"

Curious now that some time has passed - have any of you who have tuned your 2012 C300 Sports had ANY problems? I believe the M272 engine is a good fit for some increased HP, given it's internals.
However, since I blew the engine on my preview 2013 bmw, I am very cautious at this point. My bimmer was a turbo engine, and I believe less robust (N20) than the M272.
Thank you for any info you might provide on increased wear & tear etc.
Also - I found a tuner near Orlando, who is offering a tune for $400. Perhaps during the Covid recession, we could get a group buy going if others are interested locally.
