I would suggest you ask Doug of MRC - I think he knows them quite well.

Ahh but do they use their own software. I read an article saying they just down load their software from a German company (I think it was German)
You would be best finding out if they do their own map on the rollers or on the road in real time with DET cans and wide band lambda.
I used MRC's generic chip and must say I am very pleased with the results. Ask them you may be able to do in mail order i.e send them your ecu they chip it and sent it back, bit of a pain I know buy at least you know it will be right.
Nothing wrong with STAR though. I have been there for a rolling road day and they are very good.

I would certanly recomend Jim the softwear is from Germany. He plugs in you car and they send the data to him via th internet, and then he up loads it. I'm sorry but i cant remember the tuning company he use's, but i think you'll find he's has lots of happy customers, RS4 barry on this site for one and if i go the tuning route it would certanly be Starperformance but thats just my opinon reading most of the posts on tuners i feel they all get good reports and the one factor i would take in to acount is if you have any issues he' not that far away to sort it out
