RE: MORE HORSEPOWER

Your Benz is tuned about as good as it'll get Naturally Aspirated from the factory. Unless you're willing to shell out some major major money for something to force some boost into that engine, the power you have is the power you got.

Keep the car tuned up well, good spark plugs, healthy wires, good fuel and fuel system, nice clean air filter. You can go for the Remus, but from all I've heard it's mostly a cosmetic change, you might, and I stress MIGHT, pick up a couple horsepower, but nothing huge.

275Hp is a good amount of ponies for the car, if you want more horsepower, either be prepared to shell out some major dough, or buy a different car.
