that's just like saying because 90% of the world uses windows that it means it's better than Mac OS X
you can't put those 2 in the same sentence, lol. but cars & computers are 2 different things but just trying to remind you that just quantity does not = quality. Not saying anything about either company.

E55 owners have been paying somewhere around $5K for an ECU and pulley upgrade from RENNTech. Not what I would say a "cheap" upgrade, but owners have been very pleased with it.

yes renntech is very overpriced IMO. in europe i would deal with kleemann, the price is 2400euro and its covered with 3 years warranty... 1800euro without the warranty
