Hi, I am ready to buy this kit for $3000. Of course, through MBmarket and its income from this transaction. How can I contact you?
Wow, close to retail and RNM? What on earth? I ordered mine from Elbe this afternoon! Nice to support small businesses guys.
That's about 75% of retail before you pay for fees here and shipping so sort of surprised the seller didn't cut their losses and let it go.

This is tempting but not sure I want to eliminate SLS.

Y'all can have this. I'm going to buy one directly from Elbe. There is no need to worry about tuning. I spoke with Elbe Engineering over the weekend. He can email any engine tune file you will be needing. This kit is plug and play.

Currently working on swapping an M117 into a W123 wagon and was considering buying a new kit from Elbe until this auction came up.

@zachmac yes it utilizes a serpentine belt for the accessories. According to their website "Automatic tensioner for water pump/power steering pump can be used if SLS/hydraulic pump is not fitted"
@zachmac It has the instructions but I'm unsure about a base map. I bought it from Blueridge MB so I'll have to ask them
@ArnesAntics do you know if any base program is loaded on the ECU and does this come with any instructions form Elbe?
This is a neat kit. But anyone buying and installing it will need to be very savvy on setting up and installing an EFI system from scratch especially on a car that was designed with mechanical fuel injection. Elbe has a YouTube channel that does not have any instructional videos, only 15 short videos each about 1-minute long. And surprisingly the most popular 126 online forum (Benzworld) does not have anyone attempting this install or providing a step by step. I believe these ECUs are based on Megasquirt or Speeduino...so you need to be versed in Tunerstudio as well.

@ArnesAntics Is this the version of the kit that uses a serpentine belt for most accessories and requires removal of the SLS suspension pump?
