I don't think there's much gain in re mapping the 500.

In the U.K. Expect to get about 20bhp from a re map at a cost of about £200 for it to be done properly. When I start wanting more power I'm just gonna sell mine and save up for a cl 55 amg kompressor.

Get a sprint booster

it will make the car Feel much faster . The car won't actually be faster but it will Feel much faster , which really is what you want, it alters the electronic throttle so it's like you are accelerating much harder then you really are normally

Sprintboosterusa.com
it plugs in at the top of the gas pedal

eBay uk is the cheapest place to buy it

You can't have all the things you are asking for - easy plug in installation , better performance , with no change in fuel economy ! You are asking for the impossible

Ok I thought you weren't buying because of the fuel mileage concern

please report back once you install it with your impressions - I might get one for my s600

I have a C6 Corvette Z51 & recently purchased a throttle controller from another company & it really work. What the module does is it increased the rise & fall time of the throttle signal so the car responds much quicker even w/ a slight tap on the gas pedal based on your settings. There is no increase in horse power from the module but since it alters the rise & fall time of the throttle signal, car feels like you're adding another 100 HP to it. You will get the seat-of-the-pants feeling & I'm loving it.

Right , and the seat of the pants feeling is usually more important then horsepower increase . You want to feel like it's faster , even if it is the same

I like to have both but the throttle controller module is good enough for now
