The price is $1237.26 installed in Germany.

I assume your information is from the folowing:

You can send your ECU to h&s-elektronik via UPS or Fed-Ex. It appears that they have no dealers outside of Europe. You might want to check out some of the other chip tuners, such as Upsolute.

ro0zy, isn't 349 hp enough for you? I'm not sure a 7% increase is worth $1300. Just hold your water... MB will add that many ponies (and more) within a couple years. (It's part of the game when you play the HP wars.) Besides, it'll be time to trade in your '02 model by then, anyway.

Not to mention that you will probably void your whole warranty in one way or another.

ro0zy,

The chip and pully set from Renntech will be out by the end of January, still testing. I drove this kit on a SLK 32 396 hp. Should get you in the 12's in the 1/4 . They had it up to 405 hp but backed it off a little. The full kit should be under 4000.00.

Thanks Mark!

what we plan on doing for this Sat is setting up one of you guys with a free dyno post chip, what has to happen is someone has to get a dyno done on a stock car (this week), get chipped and then we pay to get it dynoed at the same place. This way you can see a reasonably controlled conditions change. Sorry guys, I think we have already chosen one of you....Let me know if you are interested though, nothings in concrete.
