hehehe thats a secret. but it retails for 990

quick. we were all chillin at the office and the powerchip guy was there... he took out 3 of our ECUs (c320, e320 n e500) and drove them down to his shop and reprogrammed/tinkered with them. the reason it took a long time was cuz there was a lot of traffic

Hows the throttle response??...any better??... would you recommend this upgrade for those who wants more power??...any regrets?... I'm thinking of getting powerchip for my car too in the next few months. Did you really pay US$990??..I thought it was about US$690 a few months ago..

Did you do a before and after dyno? Sorry.. butt dynos don't cut it! I've done a ton of mods that feel peppier and better like I gained 10-15hp and it turns out to be just the opposite.
