personally, the gains per dollar past a tune on this car are terrible.
1500 dollars for 80+ hp for a tune
then everything else is 3000 to 7000 for 10 hp. ugh.
For $3500 you can gain an additional 40-60 hp from headers and exhaust.Originally Posted by Higgs Boson

I think you're right though, anything else is pretty much pointless and you might as well save up for a supercharger or look at reducing weight if you want to track it.
Maybe I shouldn't say pointless, but the gains vs cost is not going to be pretty.

true, headers are a great way to free up some power as long as you don't mind making your Mercedes Benz sound like a Camaro.Originally Posted by HoozyerdaddyC63

IMO, Mercs should be silent but deadly.
