Customizing my C250

I have a white 2011 Mercedes Benz C250 4Matic with a V6 2.5L with no turbo. I am looking to do some custom work to my car to increase the hp and torque a little. Sadly it only has 201hp so I am very disappointed if anyone can let me know what I can do to my car that would be great!

Thanks,
Tim

I believe the best thing you can do is to get your car tuned. There is a few tuning places that have been on the forums that offer more HP/Torque, but they are kind of pricey.

What kind of tune would you recommend? I heard from people that tuning your car doesnt really add too much hp or torque. Have you tuned your car? if so how much hp and torque did you gain?

I think ECU tuning a car without Turbo is a waste of money,doesnt add alot of power unless the fabric have downtuned the car before delivery

If you want more power, trade your car in for a c350 or c300 IMO.


The 2.5L is gutless and nothing you do to it will change that. Enjoy the ride and sophistication the car delivers. If you wanted a performance car, you should have thought about that before you bought a C250.
