Anyway a C300 gets close to 280HP?

Hello everyone, I have a 2011 C300, and was wondering if there is actually anyway to achieve anywhere close to 280HP? I browsed around the forum for quite a bit but really have not seen a direct answer or the thread was old and no modifications came out at that time. Furthermore, I would like to add that I do not want to get any forced injection such as a remote turbo, maybe just some timing correction tune and a couple other mods to achieve the desired 280HP.

Thank you.

A tune will get your ~240, then headers and downpipes, and then new camshafts will get you more from there. C350s get 340hp with all the kleemann upgrades, probably close to 300hp for a C300.

Thanks for the reply, but I believe the link you showed me is for the C350? Also, does this tune require me to physically bring in my car to work to its fill potential, or is it a "Plug-n-Play" when I receive it in the mail.

Also would you have links of some kind for C300 headers.

Thanks

The performance upgrades are for both, the page says upgrades available for 250/300 on request.
