As the title states, I am curious what the forum consensus is with regard to these two tunes.
Is one more preferable over the other and if so, for what reasons?
Thanks in advance.

You are obviously oblivious as to why forums exist.
I would like input from those who have had both good and bad experience with their tunes. If they choose to provide the information, great! If not, no big deal.
I'm not necessarily looking for the differences in the two, I want to know true horsepower ratings when each is installed, or the reliability factors between the two, or ease of installation. The best place to get this information is from those who have experience with them.
I didn't mean to offend you or anyone else. I'm not looking for childish comments from immature members that have a personal vendetta against one product or another. Just real results from those kind enough to share their experience.
If you don't think this thread could be useful.... my apologies.

Troll? Because I am asking for the preference of those who have experience with a product?

Pitting two supporting vendors against eachother in a who's better "head to head" can get ugly.

The reason behind mdgrwl's post is beause this type of question has been asked many times and it has led to dark places.
A quick search on the forum will give you a lot of answers.
I have no direct experience with OE so I will not comment on them. Again after a search, you should be able to formulate your own opinion.
I do have personal experience with Jerry for the last 4 years. I had a stock and dyno tune and about to tune my 13 CLS. Jerry is an outstanding guy when it comes to knowledge of our cars and how to tune them. His customer service and dedication is beyond reproach and I wish all the vendors were like him.
I believe his tunes to be conservative and reliable. Other tuners have claimed more hp but up to you to decide your comfort level.
I would also add that if you have a shop that can install the tune, I would rather chose someone local so if you have issues, they can help you.

This is precisely the info I am looking for. I don't want the doom and gloom arguments of who said or did what, just basic facts.
Again, I can see where this sort of thread could go off topic real quick, so please if you are to post, only list facts about your experience with the tune itself. This was helpful.

Out Of Control!!
I've had experience with both on multiple cars. After OE tuned my E55 7 out of 8 pistons cracked on the first pull (no exaggeration). After that I contacted Jeremy and was told my motor was weak and not his problem. Needless to say after that I was done with OE. Went back to Jerry and have had good success thus far. Wait until November and you might see a 9 second car tuned by Jerry

I've heard good and bad about both.
You're gonna hear horror stories no matter what.
Hell why not add in Renntech, VelosWorks, Kleeman and Weistec.
Personally
I went with OETune on both of my cars.
Both are modded to hell and back.
Both were beaten on.
Both are completely reliable.
I wouldn't change a thing.

I am searching on my own as well, but I am sure there are a few stories out there that have not been posted upon that may decide to comment here.
I hope to throw a tune on the C63 in the very near future and I appreciate those who don't mind sharing their experience.
Thanks again.

Last thing I was looking for as a new member was to be associated with **** storming, was not my intent.
I just hope the thread can stay on topic.

Jerry at Eurocharged took care of me when I had my 2012 Eclass coupe. OE didn't have much to offer for the base model Ecoupes; but Eurocharged did. About 25hp/tq for $699.
I traded that in for a C63 last week. (Just got tired of the modding the Eclass and had positive equity so I traded it in). So I'm going with Eurocharged again with the new car. 2013 C63 Coupe . Polar White. Delivers tomorrow.

At first I had CEL issues with OE. But the latest file never have problems.
OE is stronger...C63 OE-tuned vs C63 Eurocharged tuned - YouTube

One could be a P30/P31??? One could have LSD and one could not? Theres a ton of factors...I have a Velos and Euro charged tune...I'd say they both pull pretty equal but Eurocharge has smoother shifts...Not saying Velos is bad..it's good but it can be a bit harsh with the shifts..and in my city where theres a set of lights every 100 feet it can suck...Got the Velos dyno'd and the car put down 490 at the wheels...getting Eurocharge dyno'd on the 22nd...maybe do more I hope
