Help with finding a kit
I have searched several websites..and the forum looking for a good site for buying a turbo, twin turbo or Supercharger for my 2000 C280 sport I can't really get any good info on them...If anyone can provide direct links to some it would be very helpful...Im looking to hit that 280 HP mark...then I think I will be much happier...Not sure what my latest craze is but In the last week I bought slotted rotors, Powerchip, and 18"SSR GT3 wheels 8 in front 9 in rear...I guess I figure if I dump 10 grand into this one I won't have to worry about getting a new one for a while....This Is a GREAT Forum and thanks for everything

incorrect
If you want a supercharger, a company called Bergwerks makes them for a W202. You have to call their 1-800 number though- it's not listed on the website. (www.berwerks.com)
As for a turbo, I know of two possibilities. A mosselmon turbo or (not sure of the website) one from Boykin Racing. (three kits/stages to choose from)
I'd like to see a turbo W202- Haven't seen a nice one since Jason Henshaw's died in a fireball... :v

He has a 2000 C280... don't think there is a turbo kit available for it, so you can custom fab it. But superchargers are available for that engine...

custom Fab
Not sure I have what it takes to custom fab a twin turbo...would you have to mod the computer much...or will it learn on its own....I would love to just pay the money for a kit...so much easier but I may look into just having a few friends help with a fab job...also what is a safe psi range on a stock engine?

(The kits seem to need a lot of tuning afterwards anyhow, so you may as well custom it... probably should stay under 1 bar, and you will need some fuel management... go to someone who knows turbos well and you should be set.)
