Hi, and welcome

If you are looking for power, exhaust won't help you much. Search the forum for pulley kit.......
I also got a 230K and gained 47hp with a pulley kit, sport intercooler, K&N, and still have the original exhaust

A lot of the German 230K owners often use Supersprint exhaust,but mostly for sound...
