I know this is the ECU but Alex did my DCT GTS Tune today after the dealer lost it for me. Once again my car feels much more alive. Thank you Alex@alpine once again!!!

I finally had a chance to drive my m3 a few times. Like mentioned previously, seems to run smoother in the lower rpms and more pep in the mid range. Feels like it picked up power up top, but i haven't driven this car much since i bought. 10 to 20 hp is realistic. Lastly, gas mileage has increased 1-2 mpg, even with driving the car harder for testing. I'm very happy with what i got for the money.

Odd question on tuning - if I go with one and decide to go back to stock when selling the car, will there be a record of the tune within the car's computer?

Just drove for a few minutes with the transmission flash and already could tell from shifting 1st to 2nd was smooth and felt right. Smiles all around especially with my ipe muffler. I can’t wait for the ecu tune once I get my baseline dyno!

Luckily, I’m local and was able to get a dct/Ecu tune through Alex. He’s thorough and delivered more than promised. For those willing to drive, he takes the time to make sure all is 100% perfect and then goes above and beyond with some amazing lunch choices.
As far as power/shifting, everything feels much better. Power comes on earlier with more torque and the shifts are crisper and smoother. Rev matched downshifts are music to the ears. Thank you Alex! |

Update - so I had my car tuned on Tuesday by Alex. Everything was smooth, we communicated via text, Alex made sure everything was perfect and answered all my questions. As others have mentioned, he goes above and beyond. Now for the good part - My car already has MS pulleys, MS Stg2 intake and Full Akra exhaust w/ race cats...with Alex's stg 2 tune, the car went from being fun, to being downright dangerous lol...it freaking rips and I love it!!! It's that rare feeling of being a little bit scared when you first drive a REALLY fast car. I'm very happy with the result according to Alex, the car will feel faster as it adapts.
Again, can't say enough good things about Alex; his customer service is top notch and he's always just a quick text away. Not quite sure how he does it, to be honest. For the price and the service you get, this is an unbeatable deal. |

Actually, I do. I asked Alex the same question; he said he had a specific tune for the Akra evo exhaust. That's what we loaded on to my car and I'm very please with it. It's an animal now. So much so that I don't drive it in M mode 90% of the time lol

While I am here I want to say that all the good publicity Alex is getting is well deserved. He is the nicest guy you will ever meet, knows his S/W stuff cold, offers amazing one-on-one service, and has the lowest price in the business. Thank you Alex, you da man! |
