Chip for CLK 430 ???

One of my friends just purchased a 02 CLK 430 (82xxx)

I thought maybe you guys could help us out. He found this chip and he is interested in purchasing it.CLICK HERE FOR LINK

or if there are any other chips you guys would recommend. Also is it OK to modify a car with that many miles on it? Im a noob so any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

That website has scam written all over it. Its impossible to get anywhere near 50hp from N/A engine with just a "chip". To get these gains, you'll need headers, full exhaust system and intake on top of ecu reflash. I would recommend to your friend to leave the CLK430 stock and start saving for an CLK55.

+1, the best mod is really just a drop in air filter, or to save up for a CLK55. Mods to this (430) NA engine are expensive and their results are marginal at best.
