Need more Horse power and Torque. Please Help!
I have a year 2000 C240 (w202) with 170 hp. It's a V-6 model that was not sold in the USA. I have asked AMG in Afalterbach, Germany for help, but all they could suggest me was to get an AMG exhaust!? 
So if you or anyone can suggest a way for me to get more power without sacrificing everyday reliability, please let me know. As I am tired of getting whipped on the road.
HELP!!!

supercharger?
What brand of supercharger? And how much hp will I get from one approximately? Will everyday reliability be sacrificed?

To increase horsepower, I debadged the back end and changed all the interior lights to Raybrig super whites. LoL....Well those didnt actually increase anything, but if you seriously want to increase acceleration and stuff try stripping your car of unnecessary items.
