Call the aftermarket tuners Renntech, etc. There is lots of help if you have the money.
Here is some good info just to understand what the ECU is doing. Chiptuning - Data-Sheet: Chiptuning for Mercedes E 55 AMG
If you want to tune by yourself with a dyno then here you go: Perfect Power - SMT6 Smart Tuner Piggy Back

A few people have tried this and it a boat load of work. No where near plug and play operation. I also wouldn't be surprised if kleemann/renntech wouldn't bother with the programing. They understandably like to tune their own products only. Last closing statement I read on the OEM S/C engine swaps was that it is easier and mosty likely cheaper to keep the N/A motors in and simply aftermarket S/C them.
Not trying to disagree, but for a member who isn't a seasoned pro at the MB systems I would recomend replacing the motor with its direct replacement. I would then go aftermarket if an S/C is needed.
