WTB: Parts for an 05 C230 Kompressor Sedan
I recently bought a 2005 C230 Kompressor Sedan and I want to upgrade it. I've only had a short amount of time to research parts due to the fact that i'm in the military and i'm extremely busy as of late. I am mainly looking to upgrade the engine and exhaust system. More specific things are, but not limited to; supercharger upgrades, throttle body upgrades, headers, internals, air intake upgrades, etc. I like the AMG body kit it came with, but i'm not opposed to exterior pieces either. I'd also like to upgrade the suspension but that's a little lower on my priorities right now. Any parts you have that fall under these general guidelines give me a shout ASAP. Thank you in advance

a good place to start is in the sticky at the top of the page ( AFTERMARKET & OEM MODIFICATIONS / DIY - FAQ's ) if you then have any specific questions on what to do a 5min search will give you tons of info since most of the stuff has been discussed before especially engine and exhaust mods.

What color is your car? For the AMG kit you can get the front lip and rear diffusor as visual upgrades for the exterior. Also throw some nice 18s on it and get some lowering springs or coilovers to give it a nice stance. Any headers you find will hit your wallet pretty hard and for the HP they give you, some say its not worth it. Look around for some upgrades on here. You will find a lot. GL and welcome to the forum.
