Tuning opinions Eurocharge vs Shark

[slater]

Objectively speaking if your primary goal is help on the 4k dip - get your disa reprogrammed first then tune the dme. If you want more power conveniently the shark after the disa reprogramming is probably the best option since you're not in an area to get the EC tune. However if you ever see yourself upgrading anything more past intake and catback on the car the EC option that gives you lifetime retuning at no cost is a pretty sweet deal. And if you don't mind making the investment on the handheld you can do it all from your own driveway anytime you add something to the car.

Pretty sure he meant DME re-programmed. BTW, Eurocharged did have a Mafia price, not sure if that is still applicable.

I've been quite happy with my Shark Injector but am pretty sure a Eurocharged tune would have given me a little more power. Also while the Shark is advertised as being field programmable via USB port, I have not heard of any updated programs or tunes for the E46 non-M. (They do have at least 2 different programs for E46 non-M.) I think for E46 M3 they have a special tune for those without headers.
