2003 SLK 230 (R170)
Slk 230 intake mod & exhaust mod

Hello! I've been contemplating these two mods but I have questions. I've read on other threads about the intake mod but there's a lot of discussion depending the year of the car. I have a 2003 SLK230. Has anybody else done the intake mod? If so any gains? Now about the exhaust I'm mainly going for sound as I've read not much HP is gained. So I found a place here in Vegas that does customs and heard great feedback on their work. I'm trying to achieve a deeper sound, strong but louder than the stock. I don't want a Honda rice sound. Any suggestions on the piping size or exhaust , tips? The mechanic told me magna flow would be the best, and obviously the whole cat and piping would be custom. What do you guys think? Thanks!

If you want 20-30 more horsepower get a Blower Overdrive Crank pulley from asp racing http://autospecialties.com/import.html.
