w202 c230 kompressor, supercharger delete

[alphanumeric]

I finally disconnected the electro magnetic plug for the super charger the other day. the car has roughly 150k miles and the super charger is starting to get really loud. between 1-2k rpm's, it sounds like their are rocks in the super charger!

the purpose of this post is to gain some in site on some of my ideas.

I am expecting an increase in MPG. I assume this super charger takes 30hp to make 50hp, with rough calculation.

this car is a daily driver and I disconnected the super charger expecting increased reliability.

so far the check engine light has come on. I dont mind this, but, that means I wont know if the check engine light would come on for anything else.

with the super charger bypassed. their seems to be a huge restriction on air intake. I want to add a cone filter right on the MAS sensor housing. would be nice to figure out a cold ram air system too.

thoughts or comments welcome =)
