C200K W203
I dont have the OBDII Scan so I cant tell you all the tech and stuff, but all i care is i am very satisfy with the look of this IC and the power gain was phenominal. Dyno is coming soon.
Mr. Buell... About the weld, its deliberate bro. Its a stlye here in Thailand to have weld that way. And the part you see that look sloppy is the bottom part of the IC. The Top part is full polish. For 400USD you cant beat the price man.
here is comparison with stock IC. This one was made for my friend CLK200Kom

the piping is still stock. its about 2.5" I am considering getting custom piping done with resonator deletion, it only cost 200usd to make stainless steel cat back piping, may be another 100usd for high grade exhaust wrap. However, what pulling me back is the noise level on my car is already loud.
Either way, even though the car is forced induction, I'm not sure if making bigger piping on the exhaust will generate power. In fact, if the piping is increased too big, it could cause power loss.

Your car is a 2.0, right? At least that's what I understand with the C200K, even though it is the m271 engine.

Never mind. I was wrong. For some reason I was thinking they didn't change it from the m111 format. They had the 180k, 200K, 230K for that engine and it was classified specifically to the liter identification.

Yes sir, 3" piping will be too big. Since I just got my hand on a really handsome 200cel race cat I think I will go for a 2.5" piping and resonator deletion as well. This should be interesting upgrade. Will keep you guy posted.
you are right M271 is 1.8 L
However, Mine is M111K it got 2.0 L with red cover
