    Tweaking a 200 OPTI

    i was chatting with Mexico and i guess the 200 OPTI can be tweaked a bit, anyone done this on this engine?

    Another 25 would be cool, just mild not wild

    Care to pass on the info? I have a 200 Opti that needs waking up. That is, if it is not torn up too bad right now.

    Moreyes what did you find out? I'd like to buy an X-190 with the 200 pro xs but they dont have a 25 in shaft yet. What did you find out for the standard 200 mods?

    Sounds like some fairly safe mods, flywheel work and ECM reflash, I would call Eric at the above number, he is the expert and could answer specific questions, talked to another Mer expert and his mods are pretty safe

    This is something you really need to discuss with Eric on a "case by case basis". Results will vary slightly from one engine to another.... and depending on which of his products are utilized.

    Eric is a great guy.... very helpful, and a BBC Sponsor.

    His products are some of the "least invasive" on the market.... and most (if not all of them) don't tamper with the "emissions footprint" of the engine
