Yes I have the Eurocharged tune. I made one attempt to have the car dynoed, however there was wheel spin in 4th gear on the Dynojet so I didn't get an accurate gauge on power increase. Shop was going to make some changes to the straps to try to eliminate the slippage.

FWIW, it's been flawless without any DTMAL or CE lights.

That's great. And you have downpipes.. To me that means something as I've got the impression up to now that dtmal issues have been mostly with tuned M5s with downpipes..

Yes, it would seem so. No issues here.

I don't have a VBOX myself, but maybe next time I meet up with Spinny we can use his.

Jerry tells me ~130mph traps are easy on this tune using pump.... Best of luck with spinny and the vbox...

Checking back to see if everyone is still happy with their tune and (if needed) service from Eurocharged in Houston.

I'm very close to having them do the flash tune on my M5 (they are just down the street from me at work) and since I hadn't seen any posts here in a while I thought I'd ask.

Thanks!

Very happy and we are not finished yet. I haven't had time to go back. But 185 mph for now isn't bad. Awhile back I invited you to call me but you didn't. So your still suffering from tune withdraws. Go to jerry and he will set your car free like he did with some of the Houston crew.

Ok my thoughts so far with the Eurocharged tune and service provided.

1. Jerry knows what he is doing working on these cars and Ecu's. We are not finished on mine but tuning on the Dyno proves the best results from file to file so I won't provide any numbers yet.

2. Bottom end pull and midrange is really strong. I really like the Mid range from day. 7th gear and stopping it to 3rd and stomping on it. Fucker just pulls hard. Top end gear continues to pull until you run it of road and gets there pretty darn quick. There is no repeating no comparison for those using a piggy. My bms was great and did it's intended job. A tune just crushes any piggy.

Many of you know I started off with a BR
Performance tune. It was easier to fix things here locally since the BR had a hard time adapting thus my reason to switch to Eurocharged.

3. Service provided is great. They are a busy unit but if you have patience they will get to you and treat you fairly. Just don't expect to talk to jerry all the time as he's very busy with customers. He is a great guy and I personally appreciate him fixing I mean replacing another's tuners work. I have been smiling ever since and everytime I drive this car.

Thanks to Eurocharged for a great tune

And we have video of the spinster doing the damn thing. With me in the passenger seat the car was smooth at those speeds. The pull is different feeling when your not driving. Strong. It was fun watching him test the car for another opinion.

Have been so bowed up lately...now car is at Momentum with drivetrain malfunction and totaly stall (read my wonderful post about getting stuck in the middle lane of 610 at rush hour).

Hoping to make one of the cruises in the coming weeks!

You guys are killing me....I sold my M5 on April 24th and missed the damn thing so much, I'm picking up a 2014 CP on Monday and the mod list is growing even though I told myself I'm keeping it stock....Eurocharge seems like it needs to be in my future.
