ECU Upgraded from Eurobahn - A+

So I researched a bit and found a few diff vendors out here from local to So-Cal and the best HP gains and Best price I found was Eurobahn in fremont. It takes apx 1hour for install all done in-house no having to remove and send ECU if your local and can get the software updated and reday to go. Gevon from Eurobahn did a Custom tune for me considering I had a Modified airbox, KNs, X pipe and magnaflows and removed limiter. The apx hp gains claim 25hp and 28lbs of torque. I seen an instant boost of power across the band and the rev limiter, BUT throttle response is way improved No lag, Smooth across the power band really smooth Im super impressed and pulls STRONG. I hit 147mph i put it on video but its unclear . So my feedback is Its awesome the ECU tune cost me 550 and I didnt pay for shipping and 1 hour to pull the codes and then the files gets sent from europe then uploaded within a few hours I went back the next day. But very helpful would fully recommend the shop and the Upgrade for the price and Power increase. The ECU Tune is SUPERchips only avail from europe and he and a select few have the software here. US doesnt offer nor list MB but the UK/euro version does.

I also had a PowerChips ECU tune done and am very happy with it. I did not have the luxury of having a tuner within driving distance.

Aaron @ StealthAuto handled this for me and I could not be happier with his service. First class all the way.

I'm assuming the HP/TQ numbers you're quoting are at the crank? I think it'd be tough to get those numbers at the wheels on our cars, safely, with just an ECU tune.
