Most hard-working people would take that as an insult, get out of the esthetician's chair long enough and you may realize that.

The manicured metro dares call anyone that works on their own car a woman, that's laughable.

Not a gangsta, that would be as bad as your manicured metro SoCal self, I'm a hard-working country boy who is disgusted by the number of manicured metros parading around attempting to call themselves "men".

Don't worry about meeting up, I don't live anywhere close to SoCal and wouldn't.

this thread is hilarious, the 2nd page is the best. Ive never seen someone get clowned so much in just one thread... its pretty funny when everyone starts putting her on the ignore list, i think MBworld should do that. this little biotch likes to get into arguments everywhere she goes...

now back to the pulley kit, looks like you have a few interested buyers now, hope it sells soon, so we can get some feedback....

Or you could just listen to the people who had it on their cars.

I bought mine from another member and paid him a fair price of $750, its wonderful to see the cheap W203 lowballers are still in full force on MBW.

Checkout MyMBOnline, the same topic is posted and its fun to see the responses of non-sack-riding W203 owners with much nicer MBs that think the W204 is hideous compared to the competition.

You probably agree with the sack-riders, since you need the MB prestige to go with your fake manicured personality.

We have a decent tuner/dyno here in Scottsdale. I will do before and after, the reason I am getting the pulley is to help in lower RPM range as I have some 19" '09 CL replicas I will be putting on the C. That's all, any additional power to help move the heavier wheels is fine by me, not looking for a 1/4 mile burner!!! It never will be!!!!! Most cat-back exhausts for NA cars yield what 3-8 horsepower all up top, and cost $500-600?

Finally! Someone who understands!

There was a dyno posted a LONG time ago on Csportcoupe.com or MBKlasse.com that showed 15-20 hp gains from 2-3.5K.

That's a lot of down-low grunt added, and makes driving the 6sp much more fun from redlights! You'll love it!

See my comments earlier in the thread re Dyno testing so that the results you get actually mean something.

Must at least control & measure inlet air temp. A one degree change will make nonesense of your results. Same day, same dyno not good enough

Okay, taking it a little seriously, I'm not dynoing a fully built blueprinted motor, also what intake temp pre or post intercooler?? Why not do a four season test also? This is an entry level benz daily driver not DTM.

Please do exactly as you wish - If you dyno the car in the morning then change the bits & dyno it again in the afternoon and the ambient air temp is 10 degrees higher & you find it is producing the same or less power - then what are you going to do? Consider that the kit does not work?

If you have the vaguest clue what is going on and interest then take it pre or post intercooler - just make sure that you measure in the same place in the air stream both times with a fully warmed up engine Have you any idea what air temperature does to power production? Why do you think the car has an intercooler?? Maybe you should start selling "Intercooler" badges for debadged Kompressor C Classes - could start a new craze - to hell with what it means or does. - Cold intake air = more power

Yes Mr internal combustion, I do understand inlet temps, air density etc. and their effects on power production. You state at the bottom of your reply this thread sucks............ then stay off it, you are neither the seller or the buyer just the resident "know it all".

Excellent - Your money - "I will do runs stock and then with, same day, same dyno.....

Ask them for a temp/air density M271 power curve - I'll bet they wont have. Off to another thread to help a friend with C240 problems. You can play with amanonfire
