Hello all, looking to get some opinions and thoughts on performance software. Im not comparing prices I just want the best one. I know there's the conforti shark, sprint booster, bavauto's programmer, afe software, yada yada yada. Which ones have you used, heard the best things about, and actually felt good results?

I have AA, which is fine because I got it at a group buy price of $300. I'd probably go Eurocharged if I didn't already have AA.

have you driven any cars that were eurocharged? did you feel a difference after you installed the AA?

No, but Eurocharged did some of the work (they can explain it better) for AA. Plus, I have a STEP, and Eurocharged's s/w addressee's the STEP too. Finally, yes, I did feel a slight difference... butt dyno said the throttle was a little more responsive, my gas mileage went up (added unexpected bonus), and the car seemed quicker. HOW-EV-A, it wasn't a big difference, it was subtle. So, is subtle worth that coin? That's up to you. It was to me, but I needed something more so I spent it. Word is, a tune with headers is really the way to go, but you can't pass smog in Cali w/aftermarket headers. Separately, Dane swears by his Shark Injected car.

Shark FTW! I drove Keith's (Kayger12) car before he bought it and I knew immediately it was Sharked. Without a doubt the quickest/fastest ZHP I've ever driven and I've driven at least 20 of them.

I just looked at both the shark and eurocharged, the shark has high power claims, 14hp/11tq compared to the EC 11hp/11tq
Both remove speed limiter, improve throttle response, raise redline and smooth out power delivery.

I would agree with both options but an added bonus with eurocharged is that if you add anything such as headers I believe they will remap the tune for free.
I say eurocharged.

I don't think any are really "better" than the other. But you definitely get the most bang for your buck if you go Eurocharged. That's what I will go with when I get headers.
