Just Got Eurocharged...
Just switched my tune from Velos to Eurocharged...hopefully no ones feelings will be hurt by this post but at the end of the day a review is a review, and that's all it's intended to be.
I must say that I am very pleased with the results and the differences in shifting and throttle response. Everything is very crisp now and much more responsive than it used to be.
At the end of the day, and for my tastes, Eurocharged is the better tune in my opinion.
Outside of the driveability, and in a similar fashion to Velos, Jerry and Adam were great to work with, very responsive and very friendly.
I guess it just comes down to who likes what from a pedal and shifting perspective.
Will post dyno and 1/4 mile numbers the next time I am able to do each.
BTW, average MPG's on the EC tune driving down from Chicago yesterday were 22.3 @ 65 MPH with cruise control on in 7th gear.
Cheerio!

how do you feel about the paddle shifter when making shift? Is it respond much faster? I feel that the 2012 model are slightly faster than the previous model. Well, that is all I concerned about.

I rcieved their handheld programmer 2 days ago.
The tune went realy well with some instructions from Jerry.
I must say that it is just a different animal now ! The throttle is much more responsive the shifting is much, much faster. I can litteraly feel the extra horses and torque under my a**

Great work guys !
Thanks to Adam and Jerry.

I believe that the theory that one method engages shifts faster than the other (ie gearshift knob vs paddles) is a bunch of unscientific claims.
Just my 2 cents.
Secondly, headers would just annoy the world around me, not to mention that the parts cost north of $2,500 alone and does not include install. Not worth the capital outlay to me. FYI, I used to have an exhaust, but didn't like it as much as the stock exhaust...the guys on here are right, the exhaust is the one part of the car that shouldn't be changed (headers-back)...I unfortunately learned the hard way and lost my a$$ when trying to get rid of what I had bought.
Lastly, if you must know, I decided to "blow" the money because I wasn't happy with how the last tune changed my cars driveability, even after several mapping changes. I didn't like the way the car shifted, didn't like how the clutch engaged between shifts and didn't like the throttle feel as much as I do with the tune from EC.
So, next time you decide to spend your money on something for yourself, shoot me a PM and I'll help you decide if it's a worthwhile purchase or just an example of you "blowing" cash out the window.

First of all, maybe I'm reading into your response wrong, but last time I checked, it is my perogative as to how I spend the money that I work 6 days a week to earn. This is America, not a Communist country..Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, needs another Obama in their life.

Congrats. Jerry is a great guy. One of my friends here in Vegas and on this board just bought a complete header/X-pipe/tune from EC to be installed on his CLK BS in the upcoming weeks.
