upgrading ECU

I'm looking to upgrade the ECU and wanted to know who should I go with? Kleemanns, Brabus, Renntech or? Does it really matter? Also what other mods should I do to increase my slow w209 320. :-) before I spend the money on a SC.

thank you,
Tom

Hey tom if you where going to do an ecu i would say go renntech. if your going to spend the money on the SC i would look at headers, free flowing exhaust. also if your going to put a sc on it i wouldnt do a ecu just for the fact that you will be spending your moeny twice for the ecu.

Do you have any distributors in or near the NYC area?

We don't have anyone in NYC right now, but it is just a 3 day turn around time. Additionally, I will be in Manhattan from 4/2-7 to see some clients, so I will have my equipment with me if you want to get the car set up.
