Not offended at all. Everyone just mods differently, me included. I don't want to put performance parts if all this car is going to see is public streets. I get and respect your reason to do so. If I had an AMG, I would do it differently but seeing as how I have this measly low C-Class, I'd like to go more for looks.

To each their own.

No no, that's the wrong attitude its not a lowly C-Class! Thats the part of Modding that is awesome. I could probably swing a C63, but where is the fun in that. The fun is spending half the money and chewing up a C63.

Can anyone post any sound clips of how the C350 sounds like after this mod? Thanks!

See what those community's are doing! Once I get my second car the 1.8 Turbo will be coming out block split and I will be looking at the engine for strengths and weakness and potential improvements. Personally I know that the 1.8 Turbo can become a monster with a little imagination, and that is my gripe a lack of Imagination in this community. A enthusiast has a thirst for Knowledge on there cars, what most people are and its not a bad thing is dabblers.
I wouldn't say I'm a dabbler, just that I bought a car with limited potential ATM. Sure I could turbo my C but with a lack of offerings for our cars as far as tuning options for turbos and such it's not worth the cost. I'm a CAR enthusiast, not just a MB enthusiast. Here's the built B6 A4 I sold to get my C300.
