|  Performance I was wondering what I could put on the 350 to get really good performance in terms of increasing HP, i was hoping to get to about mid to high 300hp but I dunno what to put... I know the 55 has a lot of mod capability but I dunno about the 350... |

| Its do-able with an ecu upgrade, sports airbox from the MB sports package and some drop in aftermarket airfilters, exhaust system and headers will give you somewhere around 300-305hp which is SL500 territory.

| Honestly the headers are quiet expensive but Evosport just released their version of the headers for the 350 SLK and you should enquire last time I recall it was cheaper than the Kleemann and other European tuners offerings. The headers will give you the most as an example for the SLK55 headers give 20hp and 20tq. The ecu upgrade costs around 600 dollars if I am not mistaken and a vendor in mbworld carries it, I think its euroelites as they also carry Kleemann, Evosport products. The exhaust system can be purchased online but I would reccomend the Peicha products as they are top notch, you can contact member noregret4life for the Peicha upgrades.

| Im here in the US, how do I get ART to tune my engine? And how much does it cost? I like the idea of getting 380hp on a 6 cylinder engine... |

  | the art one costs as much as another car, its been discussed on this forum a couple of times, take a look. However you bought a benz, so nothing to mod it will be cheap. |
