    I asked K1 about your car and if it had any mods - we didn't know until now . That's great news and we'll tune it accordingly - right on the dyno.

    Is there a certain time you would like it to be? We will be on site. Oh, but do bring a pen.

    JP@ SI, thanks for jumping in on the discussion...obviously there are lots of questions!
    If you can thread the needle... and if your drive can lead to Pole Position today, history may hold a place for you tomorrow.

    search. think. do. post.

    I think that is a great suggestion to show a real owner's before and after change.

    That's too short of a notice though - the Monday tune is set in stone because we were aware of the appointment yesterday.

    I've heard from K1 that you're requesting a time slot between 11-12, so that's the time we have you scheduled on Monday (18th). Be there a bit early. Being at Status by 10:30 sharp only works to your advantage.

    Price is $299.99.
    Expected gains are 10+hp and 10+lb-ft.
    Please supply a copy of your dyno.

    Hey guys, just came back from my Dyno. I know many of you are anxiously awaiting my results, but my scanner is not working, so I will have to take some digi pics tonight. They will be up tomorrow someway or another. Anyways, let me tell you the goods:

    Max hp increase: 5.8 to 143.1...but...
    Max torque increase: 16.3! to 165.6
    *my only mod is a custom fabricated CAI - 98 C230*

    ...and yes they are noticeable gains ...there is gobs of low end torque now! As said, I will post the Dyno tonight. Thanks to Status/K1 for all their help, and especially JP one of the nicest guys in the industry!...the car just pulls now!

    Glad you are enjoying extra power, Brandon.
    I heard the dyno took extra hour than we anticipated.

    165tq is a good number for a C280.

    I just reiterate the fact that this mod was the best thing I have done for the money for my car yet! Anyone with a N/A four cylinder Benzo knows how sluggish it can be. I highly recommend anyone with a C220 or C230 to have this done! The torque is phenomenal!

    I'm curious to see what the gas mileage is after this upgrade. Can you let us know if it significantly decreases? Also, how's the engine operating...any warmer?

    Sounds like you are having a good time with it
