C230 Kompressor
Newbie help with C230K

Hey guys, I was born a Mustang guy but changed to a 1999 MB 230K about two years ago. I am used to simply going to Jegs to get hop up parts for my 550 hp Cobra, but I am having a hard time finding anybody that handles MB. Any ideas where I can go for one stop upgrades(Exhaust,Chip,pulley,ect...)? Thanks!!!

Search the forums and ye shall find. Also, forget everything you know about cheap, real HP gaining mods...doesn't happen with MB. If you want a fast one, be prepared to pay for it. Suspension is about the only thing that will remain constant as far as prices compared with a Mustang. Check out www.club202.com

I don't think that would hurt. There are a lot of guys running 18's here and over at club202.com. Also, from what I hear, chipping the Kompressor will help a lot.

Performance Products is like $450-$500 if I recall correctly. Have to take it out and send it off to get the upgrade.
