Salutations from Richmond, Canada

Hello all!

I'm a practising tech and a glutton for punishment, so I'm diving head first into 80's, 90's, and early 2000's era Mercedes vehicles. I'm a performance enthusiast so engine swaps and chassis work are in my best interest. If you're a purist, you'll despise me.

I'm looking to buy a Mercedes STAR diagnostic set up to code out SAI, EGR, Airmatic, and more, in case anyone can steer me in the right direction. So far Topdon Phoenix Plus isn't cutting it.

More posts to come!
