I had the same exact car & it was SURPRISINGLY quick stock for being just a little boosted 4 cylinder 🔥

I think the power dropped because it's breathing hot air. The filter must be separated from the engine and covered so that it receives cold air

Thank you for this video no one talks about it

Great video!

A lot of enthusiasts dont recommend this at all. Too close to the engine so it's just sucking in hot hair. The oem filter has a better cold air intake

That's true but the sound of the blow off is worth it to me hahahah. You barely feel any power loss and you have more smiles per gallon. I may be switching to another better intake soon though.

Facts I took mine out, 3 things went wrong when I put my cold air intakes in

Take the heat blanket from the hood, you'll hear it way more from inside the car and outside 👌

Just found out that burger motor sports is in my hometown 👍

Nice ! , i had one of those but i went to a autozone and bought a exhaust repair kit which is pretty much a piece of aluminum sheet and i placed it in between the intake and engine to help with the heat soak and it helped alot !

Why you put back the old intake hose? It’s not even taking in air anymore???

I have the same car and tbh this is the worst mod for the car because it is soaking up hot hair and not “cold air” in my opinion I would go with an intake from a company called modalworks but if it’s to pricey I would recommend go with a company called tornado tuning which is like this intake but it comes with a heat shield hope this helps and keep up the good work.

Can you provide the link to the vent, I tried going to auto zone and it didn’t fit 😭😭

get a tune... me ECU is going to confuse the timing. due to extra hot air. also put back the air box cover. you can make it fit. more hot air is going in the engine. you kind of lost like 4HP but 1 or 2HP by repairing intake from intercooler. you can use open box on cold days. but hot and dusty. Your ECU vents will clog and have warm hot temps. MB put the ECU there because it was getting too warm in it previous locations.

Sheeesh wish it was a coupe

What a hatchet job! Now the motor is sucking in HOT air & it looks really crappy with half the original air box missing. Why? Why? Why?

bro you cant leave just opened air filter, it sucks hot air and you peak power is reduced (believe me, go dyno and u will see like -5 hp lost ;) ), but glad to hear it increase your throttle response.

Wont the intake grab more hot air from the engine bay, since the air filter is out in the open and not covered? I understand its still getting most of the air from the front, but seems like the stock setup was better for cold air than this. Thoughts? Edit: nevermind you end up speaking about it near the end of the video lol

Looks like mines brotha , how’s the air filter doing??? Interested

Bro u way over paid for this intake. I’m very familiar with BMs and they are good but u could’ve just got yourself a eBay or Amazon filter for way less and it would’ve done the same. Also suggest to reroute it towards the from. Which is possible. But if u want to get rid of the lag get an intercooler a blow off valve an ecu tune a tcu tune and an exhaust setup. You’ll feel the difference. Big difference. Even with a pedal comander and that’ll help out too. I love the w204 models. I’ve had a c300 for years and it’s fully modded. Trust me dude.

First of all, you just made it a hot air intake. And secondly, the mechanic I have for my car told me to NEVER use the K&N filters on Mercedes as the oil that comes in from the filter may contaminate the MAF or O2 sensors. K&N says this is a myth, but I've seen it first hand. They over oil these filters from factory and they do not stop as much dirt as other filters. I stopped using K&N years ago.

Have you owned this car? I do and I have the push start button. You can also start the car by using the key. If you turn the key and release it before the car has started it will not start, hence why he turned the key until the car had turned on. You can “tap” the key so the motor cranks if you wanted to work on the timing belt or if you wanted to check the pressure in a cylinder. I appreciate your comment though.
