Hi all,

I have just gone from one extreme to another,
just sold a highly modified Mitsubishi EVO-7 and decided on a more luxury drive, so just bought a C-class (05).

i got a C200 Avantgarde KOMPRESSOR.

my insurance company tell me all the kompressors are supercharged, i didnt think this C-class was, can anyone advise me?

thx
paul.

So you had a modified Evo 7 and had to ask what a compressor was.................. So how much horsepower did the EVO have then?

Get the pulley on the supercharger changed. It will give you some extra ponies with a re-map
