Melen tune just installed for me :)

Absolutely a BEAST in manual mode !

Just wait for some cool temp to get a new personal record 1/4 miles and 0-60 time

Funny thing’s is I got old plugs, engine got 186km on the clock and this car with the MELEN TCU TUNE made my car a beast on rail like a train ...

Day and night if you ask ...

500$ US plus 4 Hp tuner credit

His customer services is flawless... we were talking at 1 am in the morning installing the tune because I was busy during the day but I was excited like a kid... he said contact me when you’re free... I did at 11:00 pm. He was patient, gentleman and so happy to share all his experience with the platform.

Seriously this guy is a gift for our community!

This seems to be the consensus, I'll be doing a melen tcu after I get my ecu tune done in the coming months.

How do you get a hold of this guy?
I'm thinking APR stage 1 and a TCU tune. Will they work together?

HELL YEA! Had mine done almost 1.5 months ago and man oh man, his work is like magic lol. Manual is BEAST! He is very responsive as well. He will fine tune if there is any special requests also.

Definitely, recommend!

That is the thread that sold me on the Melen TCU tune. OP already had the EPL TCU tune...took it off and went with Melen. He reported a night and day difference between EPL and Melen.

I left EPL's TCU tune for his. It's night and day difference, I had " holes" sometimes on ELP, the car wouldn't gear drop right away a HUGE lag, and shifts were funny sometimes. Melen's is the way to go. I may ask him to up my launch control for 2800 to 3K :)

thanks. How do you contact him, it shows he hasn't been on here for ages.

How much was it? what cable was needed to do it? I have vagcom and epl cable already.

Any further updates on the Melen tune? Thinking of pulling the trigger for my RS with the DS1 tune.
