Is there a mercedes me9.7 / med17 ecu clone shop in Nashville I should use instead?

Does Tennessee vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Tennessee discontinued its county emissions testing programs and has no statewide periodic safety inspection. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Tennessee and federal requirements.
What exactly gets copied during a clone?
The full operational dataset - VIN, FBS3 immobilizer data, injector coding, and learned adaptations. The donor comes back as a 1:1 replacement that installs plug-and-play.
Why do ME9.7 ECUs fail so often?
On many M272/M273 cars the ME9.7 is mounted on the hot intake manifold, so it cooks and vibrates, causing internal failures - intermittent comms loss, misfires traced to the ECU, or a crank/no-start.
