I never contacted a dealership about it myself. I did not feel comfortable inquiring. I was given the information from a few different tuners that claimed they had a few clients who had second ECUs. I guess there may be a few dealerships who may break the rules.Originally Posted by OrientBlue3
Creating a 2nd ECU is not possible. In order to activate the 2nd ECU they have to transfer all the data from the first into it. It will not activate without it. This is what my dealer has told me and others. Albeit there's 1 or 2 M157 guys in Europe who claim otherwise but unless you have a dealer who's willing to do this for you and know they are breaking the rules. Good luck with that!

Someone needs to make a relocation kit lol, it would make future removal of ecu much easier.
The W205/C205 got shafted with ECU placement. The AMG GT and the new E63 both have their ECU's in plain site on the top of the engine bay:

That is so much better.... I wonder if it will be earlier to change the downpipes as well...Originally Posted by AlexZTuned

Eurocharged supposedly has the ability to re-locate them at their shop. Someone may want to contact them.
