Well the tubing did not arrive early enough today. I will have that on tomorrow. Just with the baffle on the supercharger off there is a difference in sound and mid range tq. I will update more tomorrow.

OK guys..... It now sounds like there is an Eaton roots supercharger on my car...... Well thats because there is! Now you can hear it....Loud and Clear.

Not overwhelming like a Kenne Bell on a cobra, but just loud enough for some ricer to think twice to race our slow cars.

I will try to get video this weekend.

CarQuest part # 22193
It is a large radiator hose with a angled ends. It has to be cut to length so measure 3x and cut once. Make sure you get the angles correct. It took me 15 mins.

I wish I could actually follow what you're saying, I'd love to hear the SC whine more often.

Man is it my English or My car lingo? What do you need to understand I will try to type better..... or slower

On M111 it looks like this...and is inside the SC Plenum.

shivi1345

Is this talking about a M111 or a M271?

Can you post pics. of your engine bay??

thanks

C230 Sport Coup

Mostly this thread is about M271. Sorry to intrude.
And sorry you can't know the shear power and hell bent for vengeance scream of the M111 with a pulley, SC muffler delete, + header and exhaust mods. vs. a M271.
he he....yes, so so sorry.
I feel your pain
........not.



he he I'm feeling spunky tonight...who wants to race?

shivi1345

hm.....gimme some more time then we'll see


any pics of a M271 engine bay with all this work done?

dbvolz

Whatever dude! S/C 1.8 FTW!!! I'd like to see you lay down a badass 16.407 1/4 mile! Oh wait, you probably run like 14s or something I'm so jealous of how much easier it is for you M111 guys to mod your engines...

DACHIGGA

So true, so true, don't forget the ported SC......

shivi1345

OP.....any pics of the engine bay?

thanks

reddog093

I second that. Not sure where this is/how it's done in the M271, but I'm very interested.

EDIT*: Nevermind.. I found it

reddog093

I tried the carquest search to no avail.. Found this Gates radiator hose that seems up to your specs (24", 2.5" diam - although it's black w/ green stripe...would like to find a chrome or black one)

2 questions:
*Could someone explain the deal with the crank breather? (My assumption is that it has to do with that little hose connected to the supercharger box muffler. Is this crank breather attached to this, and by removing this hose you have to pop a filter on instead and have it draw in air from the engine bay? Any part # info?)
*What's up with the baffle inside the supercharger intake. Is that something that can just be taken out on its own, or does it need to be replaced by something?

benzito911

this has been done b4.. they called it a SC resonator delete..

M111 (2.3L) Supercharger Intake Resonator (baffled muffler) removal

shivi1345

heres the M271 link

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...art-1-2-a.html

I'm really thinking about doing this

any opinions/advice/things to look out for?



EDIT: I think I've answered all my questions except one. What's the deal with the crank breather? Thats the little tube/rubber pipe running from the baffle...right? If I take out the SC Intake thing there will be a hole (where the pipe used to connect to)....what do I need to do about that?

Thanks for any help....I really want to do this

billbugger

Awesome! This needs to be a DIY sticky!

Edit:

There was a hose that used to run into the resonator. What did you do with the hole that it used to connect to?

shivi1345

bump

anyone?

billbugger

In the thread you linked to, i asked the same question and added a picture to clarify.

shivi1345

ok so I took it off...

I just took off the hose for the crank breather (like other people did)....no CEL or anything

and I seem to have lost a lot of torque and the car is very jerky when it shifts.

the sound is kind of weird....not really like a SC whine, more like a high pitched "noise". idk....everyone was staring at me as I was driving (only at like 2500-3000 rpm)

hopefully everything will be resolved when I put a tube/pipe in where the intake res. used to be.

what do you think?

billbugger

So, you still have your SC res on, you just took the hose in question off?

(mods, can you merge the 2 threads?)

shivi1345

no no no haha

I took off everything (SC res. and the hose in question)

I think I have such ****ty performance b/c I haven't replaced the SC res. with a pipe, so there is no direct airflow. Everything should be fine(even better than stock) when I put a hose/pipe in.....I hope


EDIT: pic of my engine bay

The two ends circled in Blue need to be connected (thats where the SC Res. was)

The hose circled in Red is what we were talking about (I just disconnected it from the SC Res., I need to remove it)

Just for fun, the area circled in Green is where the intake goes

[IMG][/IMG]

billbugger

Gotcha. So are you going to do that "ram air" intake mod as well?

I'm thinking about doing this mod as well, but i want to get my car Dyno'd first to see what it's doing stock and to see what differences this mod will do. Unfortunately I won't be able to do this til after the holidays.

What is that thing that the hose circled in red connected to?

shivi1345

haha well....if you click the link in my sig. you'll see I made the ram/scoop intake. I repainted it though, so it looks a bit better now. I took it out so that I would have more room to work in the engine bay

thats a good idea....have car dyno'd stock you can actually see what gains you get from mods.

I think that the hose is for the "crank breather" What is does....idk. It was diconnected and I drove like 2 miles...no CEL; so I guess its ok haha


any body have any idea what type of hose to use? Some said scilicone (but thats a lot of $$$) Others said a type of radiator hose....I'm leaning towards that becasue its cheap, easy to cut, and should be heat resistant enough

ideas?
