tcu tune?
Anyone here have experience with a tcu tune on their non-amg cars? How's the throttle response? Any positives? Negatives?

All the research I did showed me to just buy a sprint booster for better throttle response. Did just that today. I'll see how it goes.

Don't have experience with it but since these are DAL transmissions and learn how you drive, maybe try doing a TCU reset. Either way, I think Eurocharged and possibly Kleemann offer them and I've never heard a bad review in regards to either, except when they flashed Ronnie Renaldi's TCU for his SL55 with the wrong profile and he had to send it back.
