Hi guys,
My sportcoupe sportedition (2006) has received a few gifts
(pictures soon), the next step is to lower the car and I wanted some opinions from the experts. My first option is coilovers but I don't want to spend 1200€ on them. Are there any interesting options or brands with good Q/P? The second option is mount some bilsteins or good shocks with H&R or Eibach springs, I'm open to other options here too.
On the other hand I wanted also to rise the power a bit, I contacted kleeman dealer and told me the best option is to change the pulley for the C200 kompressor (mine is c180k) and some ECU remarping, has anyone done this before? where could I find the pulley? I've been searching for it everywhere and can only find the alternator and camshaft pulley.
BTW, does anyone know if someone is selling a renntech spoiler or where I can find one?

Hi for the pulley i went with an IBF one from Poland https://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCEDES-SM...53.m1438.l2649 I have not fitted the pulley so i cant give any real feed back but the price was good. I have found a Renntech style spoiler on CARID but the price seemed a bit high for me since i have to ship it to South Africa.

I saw that pulley also, the main problem with that one is that it would probably rise too much the pressure and damage the kompressor, in that case I would probably need bigger IC, I want to find the C200k pulley, is more than enought for what I'm looking for. On the other hand, the spoiler looks quite good but seems a bit expensive having to shipped to the Canary Islands, maybe after lowering hahaha.
