Behe Performance. Anyone?

I'm thinking about visiting them for fine tuning. Have anyone had any experience with them? Looks like they 've build quality performance product and tuning, and since I live less then 40 miles away from them.

Is this the Euroflash s/w? I'd like to do some road tuning but never saw instructions how to use the datalogging feature. ??

Same here, instructions on datalogging would be greatly appreciated.

I made a recent purchase through FTP, which in turn received the cable from you guys. The mechanic that installed the parts and did the tuning might not have done it right. I tried downloading the software on my computer, using window 8, but was unsuccessful with that, so that's why I'm looking for a tuner close by.

Called up Behe Performance today, told them will need a dyno tune. The dyno tune will cost $2,200 and will have to leave the car there for a day.
Does it worth it or not?

Definitely worth it......for them, not so much for you.

Do what everyone else has suggested in this thread and work with EC to get their software downloaded and then their tune upladed.

Can't charge much of a Mercedes tax on these old cars, they should know better

Sold - 05' E55
Wow - Dyno tune or not that is big $$ for a tune?
The three names that come to mind for the E55:
OE Tuning
Eurocharge
BIP
I'd investigate a tune with the three of them.

first off, FTP service is horrible. If you haven't experienced it yet, then wait till you have a problem. Second, the EC software doesn't run with W8. I had same issues. So i used my work laptop which runs on W7 and it worked like a charm. If you want quality service and parts, stick with Eurocharged!! those guys are stand up! Jerry and Philip will do anything and everything to take care of you and if you have any issues, expect them to fix it ASAP.

I have emailed EC, just need to find a computer that will be compatible with the software.. $2,200 is way out of my budget for dyno tune only. Thanks guys!

EC can dyno tune your car remotely, that's what I did.. Had a box tune then had them fine tune it on the dyno... $2,200 well let's just say

Does anyone else suspect that this "Behe" place will just do an EC/other vendors dyno remote tune? Especially since they want him to just leave the car there for a whole day and just marking it up for ****s and grins?

You are right about the service. He took me about a month to receive my beast tube after I was told they have them in stock, and will send with the rest of my package that they didn't send a week after I was promised. Still, the beast tube was not included in the package
