PM Josk K or check out www.hopracing.com for their telephone info. he said the hop centrifugal supercharger also pulls all the way up to redline vs kleemann power on the lower end. they had some intro special before september for $6,799 + install but now i guess it's $8,299 + install. still about $1200 cheaper than kleemann from evosport.

How bout a deposit on a new CLK500??..Sorry w/that kinda spare change you can't expect much when tuning a benz...At best you could get some air filters as mentioned above, Evosport underdrive pulleys, and resonator deleat

Ditch the 320 and find a nice, used 430- 215HP to 275HP- that's a nice gain!

Honestly, for the money, you cant beat suspension mods. the Koni+H&R mod was the best mod i've done to a car to date, handling and aesthetics greatly improved.

No performance...just louder if you have a good after market muffler to enhance it.

It'll sound like a plane taxiing down the runway for take off, but it will feel like the day before you took off the resonator.

In otherwords your car will be increadibly loud and no performance gains will be made. The resonator is there to help minimize noise.

Your the bomb man. Thanks. I love this damn site! I looked on EuroTeck Motorsports and seen only things for W209 and so on. Is this the correct site for green filters?

Yea I can get it done for $250 through Speed Tuning. Just let me know if you want it done and I'll call Oliver over there and tell him to hook it up for $250. I'm going to order green filters soon for the 55 so I'll let you know the cheapest place I find. I just recommended Neil cuz he's the first person that came to mind and he's a sponsor. I'm sur ehe has it, you just gotta ask.

You gotta send them the ECU, they reprogram it and send it back.
