Slk230 Headers

[Mike51809]

Anyone ever try the Slk230 Kompressor headers on their c230k? Same engine but i dont know how fit is in the engine bay

[zmatt]

The slk 230K is rated for the same output as the C 230K. There is no reason to use those headers as they are probably the same.

I meant like would the bends fit our car? I know its the same motor, thats what gave me the idea :p

hm no, isn't really a reason to do this. why not go with the supersprint headers? they should give 10/15hp

[Mike51809]

Thats what i meant lol i didnt realize i didnt put i wanted to do the supersprint headers lol

lol that makes sence, yes they are worth it, what mods have you got? pulley,tune?

[Mike51809]

Will the bends be right to fit into the engine bay? I have a tune, an exhaust, and a cold air intake and eventually im gonna go for more boost and water meth

[zmatt]

They should but supersprint, while good quality is over priced. I would have a custom header made by a shop near you. You will get the same performance and save some money.

[Mike51809]

Good point lol One day, i cant see that being much cheaper

[gakz]

where is your tune from?

Also I have the SS headers, got them used though, a lot louder after i put them on

[Mike51809]

Speedtuningusa, they did a good job im gonna have them tune it again when i get the supercharger pulley machined and he said im looking at 250hp or so :D Damn i wish i could hear it, the m111 has a unique sound

[gakz]

Haha yea, its loud and unique alright. I'm still tweaking the sound, don't use the SLK32 amg exhaust to try and quiet it. It wont, and it sounds kind of ricery (of course the muffler is designed for a V6 so i knew it wouldn't sound like a v6).

Ive been trying to find a good muffler/res combo for the optimal sound.. and honestly the stock muffler on the SLK230 is so far the best sound with the header + cams

[Mike51809]

Hell just use an electic exhaust cutout and scare some hondas :p

[gakz]

lol if you use that m111 engine with the supercharger and do any mods to the intake side... you won't have to worry about exhaust scaring people, trust me

[Mike51809]

Haha thats true, it screams with the cai lol I hear it over the exhaust
