Actually this had me wondering, did mb use different intercooler between models and trims? If so then theoretically your 2012 C250 FMIC should be an improvement over my 2010 C200 FMIC. I'll have to find time to try to snap shots of mine so we can compare.

I hope you guys know this company has been around for years. Not only years but in racing, in general and have been the leaders on what they do. Whatever parts the make for the car they are going to be top notch! Makes me want to go buy a C250……

I know the part # from the turbo is different from the C250 than the 180/200 CGI ( they both have the same)

Havent checked the IC

I would assume that's related to chassis reason, possible the parts are still the same. I really wish there was more info about our turbo set up out there.

Dont think so, because the 180 and 200 have the same Part#
The rest of the engine parts (most) on the 180 -200-250 also have the same part # .

So think the 250 have a diff turbo . But not sure

There's no info about the turbo setup... Also searched for it .

As jctevere pointed out, the air intake has too many bends. So i would love to see a cold air intake straight to the turbo.

I will try to check out some part numbers at work tomorow to see if the turbo and intercooler are the same on the 180/200/250cgi.

Thank you, I am really looking forward to getting into these cars and seeing what we can come up with. Obviously, we have a lot of ideas on what to do but we need to be sensible about it and make products that make sense for the consumer. If we can build a quality product at a good price point, we will make it. If the price is too expensive to build the product to our quality standards then we will just have to put it on the back burner for now. We do not want to sacrifice the quality of any of our products in order to save a few dollars. You know us already and you know that we build everything with the highest quality standards.

Our mid-pipe and rear section exhaust will be up for sale on our web site within 2 weeks if everything goes well. Our downpipes should be available shortly after that.

Our front mount intercooler kit is still being prototyped as we are still designing the end tanks to work with the factory style push on piping but we should see that product available for sale in 2 month.

We are planning to build a dual exhaust system but we are still in the very very early stages of development of that. We do know that a lot of people are interested in that product.

We are also working on some more power parts but we need to get a couple of projects done first before we can do that.

I would hate to tease you, it won't be long before we actually have production pictures available for you.

Your RADO Rear Muffler Section for Mercedes Benz C250 looks and sounds good. Do you guys have any plans to develop a C63-look Dual Rear Mufflers section for the C250?

Thank you. We were considering doing a dual exhaust but we don't have enough interest in that at this time.

Thank you for advising. I'm surprised that you don't have enough interest as there is a great deal of interest in the mbworld.org forum as you can see from the links to a few of the many threads enclosed below:
