best c250 tune?

I have a 2014 c250, currently only have a muffler delete and a air filter. Im just looking for a tune to up the performance a bit without having to go any deeper into modding the car. What are some of the best hand held tuners i can order for the best gains, reliabilty and driveability?

Thanks

there are no handheld tuner i am aware of. Mostly piggy back and some ecu remaps. I am currently trying to decide between the Dinan tune w/ bluetooth for $299 and the burger tune for $275.

Do you have the GFB DV+ as well, or any other mods?

os far I have experienced no issues with it whatsoever. The IOS app is a bit clunky but I rarely use it anyway. I leave it in sport + mode and the two times I have removed it just to see the difference it was definitely missed . Dyno figures posted seem to be right about 20HP and 30+ torque

So should I just do the standard Dyno Tune?

Id say get the unit, plug it in on sport + mode which is the default mode I believe when it arrives and go enjoy. There is the "race " mode as well but I think it specifies 93 octane, I did try it a couple times in that mode and it made it a little more spunky but switched it back due to us Californians not having 93 here. Didn't seem to mind running on the 91 however. for $300 you cant really go wrong
