Default SLK 230 Additional Power

I have a '98 slk 230. Now that the warranty is up on the car I am interested in adding some mods. What would be my options at increasing my horsepower? Is there anyway to get to 250hp out of the 4cyl?

The easiest way is with a Pulley kit. These use a larger Cran pulley to bring supercharger in earlier and give a bit higher boost. Computer adjusts mixture etc to suit.
On a 98 model the MAF should be relocated to the same place as the later 230's to prevent a 'hole' in acceleration.
This chap sells the kits complete with pulley and MAF relocation kit.

MAF (Mass Air Flow) or AFM (Air flow meter)

About $850 US $$ I think.. Email Linh.
