That aside, I highly recommend getting under your car and studying the headers/downpipes to the O2 sensor areas, you'll find bends/kinks in them, extremely poor design flaws which hinder airflow. I'd have to say that only a tune which actually works would be capable of handling the kind of changes required that modifications of this sort would demand. Note that I didn’t just have the car “tuned" for N/A setup, it was actually tuned to run the Kleemann Kompressor I installed. The ECU was reinstalled and the car and it has been faultless ever since. Kleemann emailed the tune-file back to me, which the local tuner then flashed to the chip with and reattached the chip to the PCB. Kleemann, taking into account the base-file readings and other factors (average regional atmospherics/temperatures/altitude etc) created a tune-file for me featuring altered tables/timing/air/fuel to ranges which the cars inbuilt self-learning system would also prefect/adjust to over time. They downloaded the present data from the chip for my "baseline" file, which I then emailed to Kleemann. What I did as a slight "workaround" to save on logistics is remove the ECU and have a local tuning shop remove the chip from the board. I personally run a tune from Kleemann and as "MUFC" has already stated, they have been at the top of Mercedes tuning for a long time, their experience is one you can trust in. Even bench tuning can be risky if the tuner you decide to use lacks experience, resulting in the same outcome mentioned previously regarding replacement. The read/write requirements for the ECU in our cars are not available to us via the 38-pin, the chip needs to be removed from the PCB to be flashed properly, any other route risks you literally burning out the chip which would then require you to replace the entire ECU because the chips alone are virtually impossible to source - do your research and you’ll find this is the case. Speaking from experience, if your W210 has the 38-pin data port your only route is bench tuning, and don't let anyone tell you differently.
