On your 320 coupe, you did the chip and exhaust.... would you say the exhast was worth the money....
Also who made your chip, as i was looking into EVOSPORT for both pullies and powerchip.
I am looking at just doing chip, K&N, and pullies.... i belive that shoud be quite sufficient of a power gain, esp since i have the AUTO. I am guessing this will be about 25-40 hp gain or somewhere around 250 hp.. would you agree?

Don't the UD pullies make around 10 hp? If so, then a 20ish gain at the wheels would be my guess; it'd depend on how good the chipping is - gains aren't as large on a NA car. I'd like to be wrong, though.

yeah, i was guessing about 10hp from the undrive pulley set.
Maybe 5 hp from K&N
Then "supposedly" powerchip alone is supposed dyno at 234 with 91 octane and 238 with 93 octane. Only have 91 here in San Diego.

How accurate that is... One could only hope for those #'s?... Anyone ran the powerchip yet?

id be careful in chosing mods if i were you, since you dont believe in baseline dyno. most of these companies would be out of business without all the gullible consumers

Vyruz & ctC230K... big difference as far as available performance mods between a S/C 230 and a N/A 320 !!! Considering I bought my new V6 C320 for less than a I4 C230K, I'm loving it !!!

Then I added K&N filters, and C32 AMG exhaust, removing the MB resonator. Worth the money to me, because I'm after the C32 AMG Sport Coupe look. It definitely sounds much better. Will have it dyno'd again at House of Power in the near future.
At rpms above 3,500 the car pulls harder and wants to keep moving faster.
Going with evoSPORT UDPS next, and possibly their new headers.

evoSPORT's UDPS claims 12-13 HP gain. I've heard good things about PowerChip too. I think that's a reachable goal with the V6 C320 !!

You say the other thread sucks because it turned into a war between C240 and C230. Why are you instegating another battle? Everyone is entitled to there own opinion, but lets not let it consume every thread please? MODS... Make a sticky for like one or two weeks for a C230 vs C240 battle and let everyone get it out of there systems! Cant we all just get along!

No, I understand it was in good humor, and Im not attacking you in anyway... Im just saying some one else might not see it that way, or might give back another smartass answer and we'll start all over again. Remember what mother always said... "Its all fun and games 'till some one looses an eye!"

My mom used to say, it's all fun and games, til you drive a C230. :p
J/k!
I prefer the C240 performance packages
Stage 1: Air filters
Stage 2: Powerchip
Stage 3: 97 octane
Stage 4: Underdrive pulley
lol
It's a shame no one makes affordable HP for the Mercs. Would be nice to have a Twin-screw supercharger that costs less than 10,000$ or something.
