I had it originally because it was the only option at the time. It's a very expensive option and there are many other less expensive, better options.

I had the MKB tune on my C63 previously. It is absoloutely great. The only reason I switched was that I had switched to headers with a catless system and they did not want to adjust my ECU for my catless exhust (reliability and enviroment issues). I know that they updated their files last November. They have a better software right now for all M156's. We have a couple of MKB modded cars in the Middle-East and they are all runing hard and fast

How can we take advantage of tunes for those of us that dont live in locations were we can get a local tuner? Do they sell offline stuffs to help modify the car etc

The ECU take about 5 minutes to pull out. If you can find a safe and secure way to ship it to the USA you have many options set to you parameters. The other issue is you going to be without your car for quite a bit of time. Hopefully homeland security doesn't suspect the ECU it to be a bomb part.

Yes, you can get a second ECU from MB.
As for the tune - go with OE Tuning, MHP, Velos or Eurocharged.

Think of it this way, even renntech c74 has a market so I'm sure real powerful, reliable kits and setups will have a strong following.
