Does it add to mpg? Where can i buy this for the cheapest? please give me advice, info, and opinions. thanks!!!
I have read a lot about the AA tune, and if there was a garage closer than 1000km from me doing it, I'd be all over it. Since the closest one is 1000km away I have found another tune that makes it possible to do, albeit at a higher price, without having to send over your ECU. ESS in Norway offer a hand-held device with their tunes. You plug it in the OBD port, back up your stock map, and flash the ECU, done and done on your own in 5 mins. If you don't like something about the tune, you email it back to ESS, they change it and email it back to you, you put it on the hand-held and flash your ECU again. Good thing about all of this is that when you take your car for servicing and they flash your ECU to stock, you can always flash it back to the tune without having to send it over again.

I will be buying this pretty soon.
