Aight, I am Switching to this forum....

I was using benzworld.org, but it is so dead. I got a Black 2006 C 230 SS with 7G, iPod, Tinted Windows, Black Side Markers, 9,000K HIDs, and a Flat Hood Badge. I am looking for some rims but haven't found anything good yet. I REALLY need to add some power to this thing (any ideas?).

Mike

welcome to mbworld!

to your question. there is no tuner with a good product on the market atm without you spending some serious money (from what i read over the past month). but there have been 1-2 threads with power gain for the w203 1.8L in this forum the last weeks, so you might want to use the search option.

and how about some pictures of your car?

LMAO..... now now ricky... don't scare off the new member we got mang. If you utilize the search feature, you can find all the answers you need. Just takes some patience and it doesn't make a mess of the database. If you still don't find any answers after a long thorough search, then feel free to post specific questions.
Good luck!

beautiful car...im expecting the exact same thing in a couple weeks. The wait is killing me If you don't mind me asking a few questions about the tint.

1) Does your am reception still work? (Gotta listen to my laker games when i can't watch it )
2) Did you notice any difference in the range of the smart key?
3) Where did you get it done, and how much? (You can pm that one if you don't want to put that out here)

4) What brand bulbs did you buy for the low beams? Got any pics of them lit up?
Thanks in advance.

So far, haven't seen anything for the '06 C230... you've got a new engine there, so it'll probably be a little while before anything decent comes out.
