I would also like to know about kleemans ecu upgrade maybe we could do a group buy!!! The UD pulley kit isnt that hard to do but you definilty need the right tool for the right job as with anything and it will go much smoother.

Well I bought the UPsolute chip tunning it was only $350 and its the same type of chip as the powerchip. Look at this site it compares chips on the mercedes engine M112 for the SLK 320 and crossfire http://www.paulscrossfire.com/performanceideas.htm

This is NOT the same as Powerchip Inc., located in Los Angeles, CA 90064.

Buyer bewarre. I was nearly trapped into buying a 'powerchip' from a company in Los Angeles that was nothing to do with Powerchip (board sponsor). You have to be carefull as the product name is used in a number of other companies product range.

Riffy: check out the stuff at www.evosport.com i did my 55 with their pulley and a powerchip and it is complete off-tha-hook!
