Where are you sending it? - Also, which tune did you end up going with?

Velos tune
Make sure you contact them 1st. I had my ECU sent to them a couple of months ago. They were unable to bench flash it because I had one of the newest ECU's that are coming on the 2017 models.
I just got an email last week that they are now able to flash it so I can't say anything about CEL's or other issues.

You should let the tuner know what octane you have locally.

ole, one of the US companies told me that their 93 is equivalant to our 98 octane, don't know if this is true or not...

These are good numbers. It sucks that the ECU removal process is so complicated. Any chances we'll see a breakthrough on the ODBII access? I know they eventually found ways to access the F80 M3 ECU through OBDII port but only after the initial bench flash of the ECU. I think those guys can now return to stock and reload the tune through the OBDII port. Can we expect something like this soon?

Question Tuners in San Diego?
I'm back in the game and looking for a M177 W205 tuner in San Diego to do same day ECU pull and tune. Any recommendations?

I live in Chula Vista and prefer to stay local in case I experience CEL issues. I do have you on my short list.

Ok, cool. Why would you get a CEL if professionals do install for you?

This... Use Benzworks (OE distributor in Huntington Beach) to install as they have done a ton of W205 installs and understand all the in's and outs of getting that POS ECU out

CEL's will not occur and have not with me--- as you get into the more advanced mods like DP's is where you will see such things unless you have a proper tune.

It would be great to hear from the W205 C63 owners who have the International Autohaus tune.

Yeah, let me know when someone has a proper OBDII port tune... ECU removal is a sure fire way to flag a dealer.

And, I'd like to know if this ECU has a flash counter like Audi???

Thx, but not a piggyback. I would love the Dinan full tune, over OBD with full warranty... But I'm probably hoping too much.
