I went directly through Malone. Don’t know how it’ll work through ECS or any other vendor

I ordered my flashzilla (FZ) and stage 2 tune through ECS. The FZ arrived about a week after i placed my order with ECS. It does not arrive with a pre-loaded tune.
It comes with instructions on how to get the tune directly from Malone. Basically, you email them your stock file and they reply back with the tune. They will ask you for your ECS order number to confirm your purchase.

I bought a Stage 2 with Flashzilla from ECS early last year. It took a week to get the Flashzilla but they sent me a returned Flashzilla (still in original packaging but opened) that was locked. It wouldn't allow me to download my stock file so I had to call ECS back and they sent a brand new one to me overnight. I suspect they did not know. ECS was great to work with despite the hiccup. Malone was quick to respond once I sent out my stock file.

will everyone stop with the malone and kerma threads already with witch one is best and how long it takes. GEEZE, you want it now, go to amazon prime and go buy a already made sports car. If you want, what you want, wait for it. All the tuners around here are legend and maybe it might take a bit of time now and again, malone has a life other than his tunes. Worth the wait, if it happens to be so.
Im just sick of these threads already. DAYM
ok i vented! SUE ME

You are so right...........It gets old after a while eh?
If you want a Malone tune just order it and wait. If you have to wait a couple of days big deal, your car ain't going anywhere soon either. Gotta have it now, living in the American dream.

I gotta agree with him. These Kerma vs Malone threads are wasteful and not at all helpful

Too many of these threads, search works and has helped me a ton over the years. That Q7 should be a blast with a tune, have fun!

oh and BTW, my order from malone was NEXT DAY AIR and he bothered to send out 3 seperate next day air shipments one after the next so i could make my timeframe at autocross. he forgot to send me the soldering board, then again with the MAP, but he was 1,000% awesome and prompt like lightning. I was also a paying customer so.......
For me it was because the purchase process seemed straight forward. I did not know there would be interaction with Malone needed. If the process were spelled out, then I would have gone directly to Malone. So it was just ignorance on my part that I went through the easy online store on ECS.

Whoever has a good price and great customer service gets my business. Bonus is they ship quick and it goes out the same day. I cross shop about 6 other vw parts sites and ecs has competitive pricing.
ECS had a one day flash sale for nearly $200 off a tune than what is advertised from Malone’s site. Couldn’t find a better deal.

I received about the same deal from https://www.fastforward.ca/ with no issues with shipping, emailing or payment, I just had to talk to a human rather than surf websites.
Great customer service and ESC in the same sentence, now that's a good one. See post 6
