My tune file was here within 24 hours. Do not count weekends if you submit your file on a saturday, etc.
Installed, driven yesterday and today to work.
Verdict:
Nothing insane, don't expect like an insane difference, this isn't a 100hp increase. I am expecting about a 15-20hp increase.
The power band seems a bit better.
It's definitely noticeable from 1900rpm and up. Feel like there is more torque around that mark. Feels good though.

alright so I've been pretty sick for the past week so when I got my tune file yesterday I wasn't able to go on more than a 10 minute drive. I just went for another 10 mins of more spirited driving today too.
From my first and brief impressions, the tune feels different. The only thing really affected is the power and delivery. I don't really notice much difference in response time, maybe slight, but I'll have to compare between stock file when I am well, and I have the time.
But in terms of power, I can definitely feel it. The delivery is smoother and I can feel the torque more, especially in the lower rpms. I will tell you that although you can feel it, it isn't very significant. I didn't expect much increase in power because I knew what to expect, but if you go into this expecting to be blown away, then you may be disappointed.
I'll have to play with it more when I'm feeling well enough, but from the short amount of time I've had, I'm pleased with the results.

Hey guys! Just wanted to give a quick update about my experience so far. I got the device last week but my local exhaust shops have been a pain so it took a while for me to finish hardware mods, but today I was finally able to send OE my cars info with the complete list of mods. Rocco has been very professional and helpful through the whole process, so I can totally see why everyone says OE has excellent customer service. Can't wait to get my file installed, I'll update you guys then!

I love it.
It's not transformed the car or anything, you can definitely feel the extra pull though...
It's not like it grew any extra inches, but it's like it took the viagra more than 4 hours ago and decided not to see a doctor.
Love it.

Edit: I'll just make it easier and copy some edited information here:
OE has officially offered their group buy pricing at $300 for tune and $200 for handheld flasher, so $500 total. I am not sure if the price is $300 if you ship in your ECU. They would like 10 people in a group buy for this pricing.
OE offers 4 maps with the tune, a 91/93 octane tune map, a stock map, a valet map, and a 100 octane race map.
OE also offers the C63 tune for $995 as a part of the group buy.
Eurocharged has told me that they are offering their tune for $450, and that includes a handheld flasher as well. They also offer the tune for $300 if you send them your ECU. They require 8-10 people in a group buy.
Eurocharged offers 4 maps as well, 91/93 octane tune map, a stock map, a valet map(if requested) and a 100 octane race map.
They are also selling their C63 tune for $730 for tune and handheld flasher, and $500 if you send in your ecu. This is group buy pricing only.
Eurocharged offers a warranty, but these tunes both seem to be very safe.
If your vehicle is not listed or if you have any extra questions, Email the tuners.

Just got my Eurocharged tuned ECU back. Had to delay mailing it until the start of the semester settled down, but they were very fast with turnaround.
Initial impression is it doesn't feel TOO different from stock. Across all RPM ranges, you can tell it's a little faster and there's a little more torque. What I did immediately notice is the decreased throttle lag off the line. Going off from a dead stop at a light, it picks up and goes a lot sooner and more easily, even if you're not that heavy with your foot. Throttle lag is basically non-existent. Definitely worth the group buy price. Philip @ Eurocharged was extremely quick with email replies.

OK, this is what I am interested in.
I want to push the throttle and have it respond.
