Add 1 to the list of satisfied Eurocharged ECU tune customers!
First off, I was always borderline about getting a tune although it's the best bang for the buck mod. When Eurocharged had their Father's Day sale I decided to bite the bullet and get it (I was previously considering the Kleeman K1).
Since I'm in Canada I was prepared to go a week without the use of my car, but (not surprisingly) Jerry had one of the fastest turnarounds I've seen in any cross-border transaction. He had my ECU for literally a few hours between receiving it, flashing it and sending it back out same day.
I haven't had a chance to really ring it out yet (I only got it 4 days ago!), but from what I can tell, the car is more responsive to throttle input and shifts seem to be smoother during normal driving. During more aggressive driving there is a discernible increase in the car's urgency at the higher RPMs. There isn't a boatload more torque than before but vehicle speed definitely seems to climb quicker overall above 4k RPM compared to before!
Exhaust note has changed subtly - the growl is now bit more raw, especially when the engine is cold and there seems to be more of the burbling on deceleration downshifts (I really love that sound). Overall a nice change!
I can tell the tune is still adapting somewhat. That, and I only have about 2300 miles on the odometer so I know things will continue to get better over time. Even so, I could swear my mileage is already starting to improve.
In short, this tune gives you everything that is promised and is a great bargain even when it's not on sale. That, and my experience with Jerry was 2nd to none!

Forgot to post a follow up message. Me and my friend sent in our ECUs for a reflash on a Mon and had it back in our hands on Wed. The new flash is a huge improvement over the previous version I couldn't be happier.
