Have you tried the benzsport.com forums? Most of the folks over there have older benzes, and they're always talking about tweaking this or that. Give it a shot, they're a good bunch of people.

Ign resistor

There is a resistor in the ign wiring harness that determines how much ign advance the car runs. Changing its ohm value will allow more advance and better performance.

Check out www.mercedesshop.com for a long thread on how to do it.
