Default 2000 c230 kompressor info

Hey guys, anyone got any suggestions about what i can do with my benz to squeeze some more horses out of it?!? I'd like to maybe do some kinda upgrade to the supercharger but don't really know where to start. I'm also thinking of upgrading the exhaust but this is my first benz so I don't really know where to find parts. Can anyone help?!?

You could always increase the boost of the supercharger, if it can be done on the stock one. Or get an Eaton supercharger with more boost, the only problem with doing this is blowing up your enginer quickly. Most cars that come from the factory with SC's have the boost level's set for max HP for the engine and a safety factor so the driver doesn't blow it to kingdom come. If you change SC's make sure you get it done by a shop that knows what they are doing. Over the years, I've seem too many people, install their own SC's set them at max boost and bye bye engine.

Try www.performanceproducts.com. They have quite a few choices for most Mercedes vehicles. Cat backs to mufflers only. There expensive, but sell quality products.

PS, Never saw an intake for you car. Check Performance as I mentioned in my previous posting. Or Ebay has Mercedes intakes now and then, don't know how the quality is however.
