Is there a mercedes me2.8 / crossfire ecm clone shop in Fargo I should use instead?

Does North Dakota vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
North Dakota has no statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all North Dakota and federal requirements.
Why won't a used engine computer just start my car?
Because the ECM carries the immobilizer relationship with the car's ignition and security module — the EIS on Mercedes, the SKREEM on the Crossfire. A donor ECM still holds the identity of the car it came out of, so your engine cranks strongly and never fires. Cloning copies your original's identity, immobilizer data, and calibration onto the donor so your car cannot tell the difference.
Does the immobilizer stay active after the clone?
Yes. Cloning keeps the factory drive-authorization system fully intact and your existing keys keep working exactly as before. This is not an immobilizer delete and it is not a security bypass, which is also why proof of ownership is required before any work begins.
