well, as some of you may know i recently got a huge bug up my butt and modded out my stock 02 C230 Coupe. i already had the team green air filter, so i cleaned that and went up to the muffler shop. i asked about exhaust and high flow cats, and the high flow cats werent reccommended, even though he had both in stock, so i had him install a flowmaster series 40 muffler with a Ractive black chrome oval exhaust tip, looks and sounds pretty good, movies of me attempting to show ya'll how it sounds were botched by my redneck friend and his rediculous ford ranger.
those video's are at
www.myspace.com/madfast, under "videos". gee, surprise there :D

anywho, in the meantime i had gotten bored and pulled out the intake resonator, i like the way it whined a bit louder, that was cool.
ordered ASP's crank pulley and it arrived in good condition of course, swapped it out today, and totally forgot to take step-by-step pictures of the process for a "DIY" style write up, but anyhow it pulls a lot harder at lower rpms and up top it just screams. very nice improvement, well worth the $350 it costs in the end.....
