MKB C38/6k article in the September 2002 issue of European Car magazine

There is a fantastic review of the MKB C38/6k modification in the latest issue of European Car magazine. I highly suggest that anyone who is thinking about buying the MKB tuning package, to buy this magazine and read the article. The article is on page 28, and it is in the September 2002 issue.

They said the entire package; interior, body kit, engine, suspension, etc. is 37k! That's even more hefty than Renntech.

How bout just engine? I thought I read somewhere that Evosport sells it? Anyone from Evosport have a price and an estimate of how many hours labor it would involve?

I contacted MKB a while ago and they told me that just the engine modifications are around $11.5k.

I've heard that it is not built for longetivity, although I am not sure how much truth there is to this.

Thanks!
Saw your profile, you got a S600 on order, wow, that's a 550hp monster with bi-turbo. Nice car!
