I got your ECU and waiting for a file back from Germany!

Sweet, I understand that alot of customers are happy from what they have done. I'm just one of those customers that would like to see more results from a dyno sheet to help make my decision alot easier. Thanks again and can't wait for the dyno results.

One more question I'm about an hour away from you. If I was to take my car in How long would the process take?

Adam, I live in Germany and would be interested in this upgrade. Do you have a shop here? I can mail via the US post also but is slow.

Thanks,

Connor

The entire process will take 15 minutes download and upload from the OBDII. However, since Evotech HQ is having its annual 3 weeks holiday, a file from the Evotech HQ will take about few hours (1-3 hrs)

Connor, the main HQ is in STUGGART but the special was only for US owners of the E500.

I'll find out from HQ what we can do for you.

We will announce it soon enough but it won't be $550 since both 350,550 are still brand new in the market.

Depends on which state you reside.

I know the sale is long over but will remapping an ECU void any warranty I currently have on the vehicle?

There is no way for the dealer to know that you have an ECU tune. I've had mine since the end of 2007 and never had any warranty issues.

On a side note, this retailer is out of business. But there are many, MANY more out there that can satisfy your ECU tuning needs.

I wonder, does this ECU upgrade eliminate the drive by wire lag?
