    SLK 350

    Any info on performance upgrades for the 3.5 V6 engine? Thanks.

    Hm, difficult!

    Brabus' kit is in preparation right now! Not satisfied with the hp?

    I drove the SLK 350 today, with 7-speed-automatic-tranny. Although there wasn't time to test it back to back, I couldn't feel much difference to a SLK 320 with 6-gear. On the autobahn I was able to follow a new Carrera 4S quite easily, but then, perhaps he wasn't going as fast as he could (but according to the exhaust note he was! ).
    SLK has a very pleasant exhaust note BTW, noticeably, but not too loud for a car like this.

    Wait, you say it's not much faster than a SLK 320 and on the other side you followed a C4S? At a difference of about 60hp of the two Benz's you should feel one for sure!

    Yeah I know, that doesn't fit together. But I think the C4S wasn't travelling at full throttle and it was an auto-SLK 350 compared to a 6-gear-SLK 320 and I couldn't drive them back to back. But I still think the automatic tranny takes some speed.
