    Default Ecu programming for a Merc

    It's time to get the c43 tuned and of course I'd rather stay local and go to Ecu program but been reading on other c43 forums that Ecu program uses tunes from Poland and they have bricked some Ecus before.

    I take it with a grain of salt cause the forum is mainly run by AMR which tunes alot of Mercs in the state's so I'm a bit conflicted. AMR has better hp figures but it's almost double the price

    Thoughts and experiences with Ecu program?

    Shouldn't you fix your electricity usage first? Your hemmoraging money there.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Shouldn't you be vaping right now instead of posting?

    ECU Program doesnt have the best reputation.
    I vaguely remember a forum-scandal with ECU program "borrowing" other companies tunes for diesel BMWs then selling them as their own.




    I would suggest Jimmy Bailey @ Lab 22
    https://www.lab22.com/

    He's one of the better tuners around these parts and has also done multiple tunes for my personal car without any hiccups.

    Thanks, I thought there might have been a bias from a group run by another tuning company. I'll give Jimmy a call.
