I got the powerchip for my clk320 last month. The car revs higher and switches gear at higher rpms. Reduces the throttle delay so that annoying pause is gone when you floor it. Smoother shifts as well. Overall, pretty happy with it, I feel the car drives much better now. However, dyno hp results were disappointing. They are working with my dyno files now to see if anything can be improved. I will keep you guys posted.

thanks guys.. ill have to give it a try myself.. I sometimes think i should of forked over 8 gs more and bought a clk500 , i dunno, im happy with my320 but sometimes i want that extra kick, do u guys know if the gas milage is allot less on a 500 or not that bad.

Another issue i had when i was buying my clk was this,, i thought , it would cost me close to 60 G's to buy a clk500.. if im going to spend that kind of money i want a bigger car, E500 are about 63,000, for 10 more G's Id rather buy a S430 big body,, So,, thats why i stuck with the clk320, if that males sence,
