I would recommend VRP, they are new but it looks like their products deliver the best bang for the buck. If not VRP, its definitely between Kleemann and Renntech. Brabus is too pricey and Carlsson is not very popular.

All are great tuners. Carlsson makes great products, but you cant get the power levels you can with others. Brabus can be very pricey, depending on the item. Kleemann and Renntech are well priced and you can get great power from them. Havent worked with VRP but Ive heard nothing but good things.

VRP like Evosport are tuning shops and not really considered "Tuners" like Brabus, Kleemann, Carlssson and Renntech. There is also Lorinser, Fab Design, Kicherer and MKB.

Thanks addicted2speed and dynamicmotoring, that was the type of info I was looking for. As of right now if I purchase something it will most likely be from evosport, code 3 or LET - VRP for the high dollar things.

This thread was merely started to discuss pros and cons of the major tuners I have heard about for years, and only those ones. Never heard of Kicherer, MKB or Fab Design and completely forgot about lorinser......
