Hi all,

I am a newbie. Just bought c230k. Dealership had ALOT of Renntech stuff on it already. I was wondering how much more hp would i get out of a Renntech Ecu? What other mods are out there for this thing? I always tuned hondas and know 4 bangers can be monsters if done properly. HELP PLEASE!!!!

The next thing to get is a more efficient intercooler. Renntech or Racetec.

The Renntech is made by Turbonetics/Spearco. It is large, and requires drilling some holes for mounting. The kit includes some padding to keep the intercooler from rubbing on some things. After some not too rigorous testing there may be a pressure drop in excess of that predicted by the designer of the unit. This is probably due to the design of the end tanks.

The Racetec intercooler is just coming on to the market. It is cheaper than the Renntech. It uses a smaller, but very efficient core of German manufacture. The end tanks are a smoother design, and the same testing mentioned above show very little pressure drop. It does not require any drilling. It bolts to the factory mounts.
