63 Ecu....
Has anyone tried the RennTECH or other ECU for the 63? Site claims 33hp and 30 TQ. Just curious as to whether it is worth it or not. Able to feel any difference? Sponsors feel free to chime in even on your performance testing and any notes. Thanks.

Powerchip has been doing a lot of research and development on tunes for the 63 motor. They have actually had a ML63 in for about a week and it's going to the dyno today to try out some new files. I'm sure it will show some great gains.
I will update everyone shortly.

Looks like it adds about 20whp. The dyno chart is a little difficult t o read.

Renntech's ECU upgrade is indeed just slightly north of $3200. I spoke to them today and was told that the headers would not be available for quite sometime (maybe even a year). Just curious as to whether or not I should simply sit and wait or play with the ECU as the first performance mod.
Guess it would be nice to tell people I'm pushing 540 HP and 495 TQ. Something about those numbers is just impressive. Will keep looking for dynos and see if I can get any other info (as in personal experiences). Thanks guys, keep the info coming.

Evosport's website (like most) mentions nothing about the E63. Are there dyno's, customer testimonials, anything? Guess I will give them a call as well to find out more.

ML63 dyno graphs are here!!!!!!! Powerchip has gained some awesome hp/tq and on the 63 motor. Also, notice the dip in power at around 4,500rpms while running stock software. Powerchip flattens out the power band and gains much more hp/tq from 2,500-3,500 rpms.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or to get an order in.
