ECU Tuning questions

Hi guys. So I have a 2018 C63S. I want to get a ECU flash but I have some questions lie in front me before I make my decision:
- I have an active sound module from Cete Automotive (https://www.active-sound.eu/en/merce...ol?action_ms=1). Will this affect the ECU flashing since the module is hooked with the wires and circuits?
- Anyone knows about VR Tuned? I'm interested with their ECU flashing product since it's not expensive ($1500) and it offers custom setups like pops and bangs. Are there any recommendations besides VR Tuned?
- I had a terrible experience with the ECU flash on my first car (Stage2 Audi S3). Will the ECU flash on the C63S be reliable and stable?
Looking forward for your reply guys, and thx in advance.
Here are some pics of my whip :-)

You'll find no shortage of great tuning options for the car. And certain things like "pops and bangs" can only be accomplished with flash mapping. But if adding smooth and reliable performance in a format you can install/remove when needed is the primary goal, look no further than the JB4.

This is a "piggyback" right?
but
this also means the ECU flash counter stays at 0 right?
