If you would like to call and discuss over the phone we can do that as well. 732-649-9597. If you think they are questions that could help the community do post up what we talk about though.

Waveykat is welcome to be the first one if he's up to it.

That is exactly the kind of dialog and ambitiousness that typifies a valued and respected vendor, and can potentially earn you loyal customers from around here.

Keep after it.

The install of injectors and ECU takes about 3 hours, but the CAI fabrication could take a couple of days if we don't have the right size pipes or connectors in stock. We ran into that problem with the SLK230 we just had. Told the customer 2 days and it turned into a week because all the connectors and piping were 2.75" which is an odd size.

Anyway, figure Saturday-Saturday. We'd meet at a dyno facility prior to install for a baseline and then rip it apart from there.

These cars can be put into dyno mode correct? The Crossfire can't and it tops out at 5500 RPM.

We can get this going ASAP after this weekend cause we'll have a couple Crossfires getting the kit Saturday and Sunday.

Shoot me an email or give me a call and let
s set this up. I'll let you know the cost of parts when we talk.

Yes, these car's can be put into a dyno mode. Also, not to step on anyone's feet, but if WaveyKat or Ventura aren't up to doing the first install, you can consider me. Since those two were the first to suggest using their cars, I will be behind them. Thanks, and good luck!

Well, having my only means of transportation out of service for a week just isn't an option for me, so unfortunately I'll have to retract my offer.

Also, I'd prefer to keep my OEM intake setup anyways...

Where in Jersey are you located? Also are you only looking for a certain W203 model or any model in that family of cars? My car is in storage in NY because I am on a short tour in Korea right now and I can possibly have my brother drive it to you so you can do the work. I have a C240 is you couldnt tell from the name

It would need to be the 3.2 liter V6 NA. Basically the C320 is what they are looking for. At least I'm pretty sure that is what they are looking for. I don't know if this same application would work in the C240's 2.6 liter V6?

We are located in Middlesex County, about 45 mins from the city.

It has to be the 3.2L as the tune and injectors are set up for that platform. If the CAI works, then we will branch out to the other M112 v6 variants.

The way this is going to try and get a volunteer we may just offer the kit to whichever v6 car comes first.

I'm confident in our products I just need somewhere to try them out!!!

So is that a legitimate statement or just one being made due to frustration of not getting a volunteer with the requested engine size?

Legitimate statement.

We have a lead on a 3.2L as of right now, if it falls through another spot is open.

What would you estimate as a power gain for a stock 2.6L engine?
