That's definitely not normal. The whole process should take less than 10 minutes (more like 5 minutes, I think).

Make sure it's connected to a battery maintainer/charger.

Mine only took a few minutes. I was actually surprised at how quickly it did it.

It finished at 2:30. I started at 11:50! 2hr 40 min to load the tune.

heads up for anyone doing it at home to have a charger on the battery just in case.

Car drives like a dream and big shout out to
broadway performance in NJ. They were very patient and took care of me.

who would’ve though a pulley and a tune can transform the car so much. Huge torque gains and so smooth! When you get on it it’s scary again.

also installed an 010 pump.

overall very happy with the turn out. I was expecting the worst. I can’t say or explain why it took so long. But oh well.

Did you do a remote tune? Mine took 5 minutes but I used the MyGenius. I'm guessing everyone who said 5-10 minutes did the MyGenius as well.

Nope, I have loaded both EC tunes and RaveIQ tunes via laptop adapter and always takes around 5 mins.

Strange mine takes 25-30minutes on euroflash v2, I also have some packets fail/unresponsive but tune seems to take. I might try a mygenius tune with raveiq or something.
