Anybody heard of Digital Tuning?

Anybody heard of Digital Tuning? I've found their website here: http://www.digitaltuning.ch/

If their claims are true, you get 190 bhp for 600 euros...

Does anybody have any experience with them?

Sounds interesting, this is the highest Torque increase (+ 46 Nm) I've seen sofar. However, as with Rumphorst I'm very sceptical about obtaining such a gain with only a remap of the ECU. What's also interesting is that say they give a 5 year warranty on their products (curious about the range of their warranty though).

Interesting for our UK friends is that Digital tuning also distributes their products in the UK (euro 600 is approx. GBP 380)

For sure a tuner to keep an eye on if you're interest in an upgrade.

Anybody heard anything about these guys in relation to any other type of car even? Are they at all well known, or is it kind of sketchy?

Whatever.

I've had that problem with almost every company i've sent an email to. The only two companies that actually responded with the first buisness day or two was Hartge and Racing Dynamics.... Everyone else has just chosen to ignore my emails for over a week (some for even longer!)

Whatever.
