2005 S600 New Shoes!

Since I've decided to her. I went from the original 18's AMG to some 20's.
Now I'm now trying to decide on which company to do my ECU upgrade: RennTech & Kleemann have been suggested by MD dealership. Most expensive though. I'm also considering PowerChip & EuroCharge.
Any comments of real world experience with any of these companies would be GREAT!!

nice looking rims!

Renntech upgrades always seem to be fault free

Eurocharged seems cheaper if you get in on a group deal, but requires fiddling

I beg to differ, as I have had my Eurocharged tune now for almost a year, with NO ISSUES what so ever.

Don't knock them, unless you have tired them my friend.

I would HIGHLY recommend Eurocharged to anyone, and have

Oh yeah, one small issue, that is replacing rear tires more frequently

Congrats on the shoes, they look amazing!

In regards to ECU tune, MbWorld is the best way to find all kinds of testimonials.

In my opinion everybody makes respectable gains, and there will ALWAYS be the one or two odd ball which has problems with different Tuning Companies.

I used Powerchip and not only customer service but the tuner him self was amazing. Although he no longer works for Powerchip I would strongly recommend you to try and find "Jeremy".

He is an amazing tuner and definitely one of the best.
(bassn) the fastest e55 gets his car tuned by Jeremy! I'm sure if you PM bassn he will be more than happy to share his insight on tuning and give you Jeremy's contact information! You'll find bassn in the AMG section under (w211 e-class), that's where he is the most active!

Good luck to you, and regardless of who you choose I'm sure you'll have lots of fun!
