Where can i find a cold air intake for a C320?
do any companies make a cold air intake for the mercedes c-class? i've been looking for one, the only company that makes them for the e and ml-class is weapon-r. Not sure how good they are. Do cold air intakes increase hp at all? do they make the car sound differently? thanks!

I own a Clk 320 which uses the same engine. I dont belive the intakes add any performance, because once you have a cone filter in the same space as where the stock filter should be, your taking in increased amounts of hotter air.
It does make a huge difference in sound, really throaty above 3000 rpm, almost tooo loud. I have one on my car anyways, because it sounds great. It does feel faster, but thats probably because of the sound increase, I have not done any dyno.
weapon R intakes are overpriced. you can make your own with a honda accord intake kit by cutting the pipe at the right angle. Thats how mine came about.
