He said that the most notable gains are from forced induction. That is true. Yes, there can be gains from other NA mods, but you need some real software hacking to make them work and make them sustainable and consistent.
There ARE gains to be had on a CLK with air intakes, exhaust, cams, headers, filters, throttle bodies, etc. However, you will spend more money chasing HP this way then with a SC or Turbo kit in most cases.

Clearly, objectivity is compromised, when moderators become
advocates for products and realizing personal gains."
While I don't totally agree with your point here, we have come to the conclusion that it is best to avoid this issue moving forward...

This is the best and most informative English speaking discussion forum for Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts, viewed from a national and global perspective.
Brad, your policy adjustment will keep it that way. Arguably, it will promote more harmony followed by expanded membership and more business for our generous sponsors.
Again, tnx.
Karl
