I have a 99 6 speed coupe with Corsa cat back. I have done a search and did not see anyone with a 6 speed C5 who had it done.

IS it a night and day difference? Can you drive to his shop and have it done while you wait? I have tried to call them but they are out of the country.

I believe they do a street tune w/ EFI Live or Hp Tuners, logging data and adjusting TQ Mgmt, A/F and other engine parameters while driving the car in a variety of conditions.

You can have it done while you wait, I'd guess. From anecdotal accounts of people having it done, they will drive the car w/ you in the passenger seat holding the laptop that is doing the logging and will periodically stop to adjust and then more logging. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I have read posts from folks who have had it done who were pleased, more so of a difference on A4's though as I guess TQ mgmt plays a larger role there.

I too am pondering this course of action. I have already had a dyno tune done but that's mostly WOT tuning; i'd like to have something logged/adjusted during normal driving conditions though.
