wants a cCoupe Do you know for a fact?
Yo,wants a cCoupe
Have you check their price with their web site?
Are you saying that the price include their pulley + chip and filter?
Do you know for a fact?
Because I already order ITG filter and planning to order ASP Pulley tomorrow.
Guess I need to call them to verify what the price actually includes.

I spoke to them about a year ago, they were one of the first to have a pulley for the coupe. They even sent me installation instructions. They don't have a chip for the coupe. It's a pulley, intake, fuel pump mods (for the a/f ratio). It costs $1,299 but there was a MBWorld discount of $100. I've only heard of one being installed and they had a S/C leak afterwards but I can't imagine it being a specific problem to Wetteraur.

Renncpe,
I just installed the Vaeth 3.8 Bar fuel pressure regulator and has it dyno at Evosport shop. The A/F ratio drop from 15.1:1 to now at 13.7:1. Renncpe, did you measured the A/F ratio before the CAT or after? I measured the A/F ratio both way. Before the CAT is at 13.7:1 and after the CAT is at 14.9:1. I see that there's a different to where you measure the A/F ratio but some mechanic still said that it does not matter whether before or after the CAT. What about you? What do you think, does it matter?

linh, do you know if there's any special fuel pressure regulator for the new 2.3K EVO111 eingines?? i've tried a FSE regulator from UK for the 97 230K SLK, it gives much better result than Vaeth because FSE's fuel-line pressure increases with higher revs. The new 2.3K EVO111 engine has fuel regulator but it's half-electronically controlled
