V TECH TCU

One of my clients needed a TCU for his 55 so I sold him my Eurocharged TCU.
I replaced it with a brand new module from V TECH in Georgia (eastern europe).
I can honestly say the car drives just great and I think it is less glitchy.
Price is also a major consideration here as you can keep your original module for their
$310 delivered price.

I heard about V Tech a couple times now, all positive. How is the daily driving experience?

I could not be more pleased!

With some serious miles on the VTECH TCU I can confidently say it performs better in every way than the Eurocharged version and if you are still driving
a stock TCU you are literally punishing yourself with the awful stock programming.

You sold me, im in!
Anything specific you recommend or I should know, or is it just the matter of sending them money and plugging in the new unit?

Did you contact them prior to purchase? They haven’t been responding.
Which model should I be selecting? I was thinking its either the w203 or the w209...

Maybe on vacation. He was extremely prompt with communication and perfect English.
I suspect the TCU's are the same but I went W209.

Back in the day all I recall is that the stock S mode was downright uncomfortable.
This tune really makes good use of the 5 speed and the only time it sees C mode is
weather...
