    Took the C230 for a drive

    Time to see what it can do before I make it better...

    It wasnt bad to be fair, too soft, needs a proper diff, and needs to have traction control you can properly turn off, but a lot better on track than you'd expect.

    Anyone checked inlet temp on a C230 Kompressor?

    As title really. Im guessing no, but wondered before I go and do it, saving me a job. The way the car drives feels to me like on cars when the intercooler is struggling, but its a fair size and the boost is v.low, so kinda surprised if it is, and the odd shape pipework makes an upgrade not a...

    W202 C230 Kompressor standard boost pressure (and boost curve)???

    W202 C230 Kompressor tuning Q's (exhaust, remap, supercharger bypass valve, etc)

    Hi from Redline Magazine, new W202 C230 Kompressor Sport owner

    Hi there, Stav from Redline Magazine here. I just bought a W202 C230 Kompressor Sport as my new daily driver (as my main 'fun' car is about the least reliable, hardest to drive, and least economical thing known to man), and while I've always wanted one, I'm really surprised how good it is, I...
