Anyone using the PowerChipGroup ECU mod?

I had them mod my ECU from my C280 and was pleased with the results. I'm not planning much beyond that for now, along with the K&N filter change. Some of you know I just picked up my 04 c32 a week or so ago. First thing I did was change the oil and at 49k on the odometer.

PowerChipGroup posts: Powerchip has a range of chips to suit your car, which can increase it's power to between 359 hp and 366 hp, and it's torque to between 341 lb.-ft and 348 lb.-ft.

Powerchip Feedback

I would not use Powerchip, their numbers are very aggressive and a bit exaggerated. Many members have tried them with some success, but others had the worst experience. I would go with a company that specializes only in Mercedes:

RennTech ---> http://www.renntechmercedes.com
Kleemann ---> http://kleemann.dk/site
EvoTech ---> http://www.euroelitesonline.com/

Here are some threads on Powerchip feedback if you would like to research the subject more. Also, feel free to PM me and any of the members for more information.

Ok- thanks. I was a little unsure and only because I used them in the past I was looking that way. I prefer like you mentioned dealing with companies who know our car- instead of a chip -all. Let me check out the links and be schooled

02 C32 AMG sold!
They are very attentive before they get your money. When they get ahold
of it they'll take their time to respond to you if you're lucky enough. If you
had a good experience make sure you stick with the same sales person. I
was dealing with four people before they started to ignore my emails and
not returning my calls. I hope they enjoyed the money I gave them.

PowerChips did a wonderful job for me and Aaron with StealthAuto is a true professional to deal with. Cannot beat them for the price and customer support.
