you should also check into having your computer ECM chip upgraded. Normally the manufacturer purposely sets the computer to not deliver max hp because all different types of people are going to drive the car and they want to appeal to a happy medium. Upgrading the ECM chip is one of the ways that shops like AMG and Brabus get some of their extra hp.

Storm...what type of supercharger would you recommend for the 300E (I have a 1989) and as far as the remus exhaust is concerned how does it sound so right...does it make for a deep low rumble or does it have sort of a honda sound to it?
