Cool 2012 C250 True Stage 1 Kit *REDEMPTION IS HERE*

Rado down pipe, front mount, and exhaust

True piggy back not that JB crap...JB piggy back is CRAP DO NOT BUY

http://www.racechip.com/chiptuning/m...50kw/index.php

or DTE Chip tuning piggy back, also amazing... I have this one and love it... Have 3 different presets each increasing power or the option to manually tune it...

Intake by Burger MS

Keep in mind this is the same company that made JB crap.. and it really is a jank piggy bank.. but their intake is great.. the only thing is they shipped it with the mounting bracket on backwards... DERP.. good lord.. and the screw provided DONT FIT THE THREADS.. like how do you get those to things wrong... you can use the screws from the OEM intake so dont worry.. and you have 1 for backup.. sounds like you have a blowoff valve after you get this bad boy on...

Charge pipe upgrade

and last but not least my FAVORITE... I dont know what the **** mercedes was thinking when they put rubber charge pipes on this car but WOW GARBAGE! So finally you dont have to fabricate a semi decent replacement.. Here is the real deal... It replaces both sets of charge pipes which fit the RADO intercooler RADD!!..

I've heard of a couple people reaching low fours in power on these motors with some excessive mods but shoot I can see it happening.. Maybe low three's without getting to into forged internals and rebuilds.. Anyone know of any after market turbos that will fit these things?

Looks like no matter what that little turbo runs out of steam up top. For example, look at the RADO intercooler supposed gains. A LOT up till about 4500, then a gradual decrease in the delta for power added.

I'd be most concerned with getting the right tune. Intercooler and full exhaust needs more than just some tuning module. Don't forget OE Tuning as well. They have a tune that brings power up to 228/279? I'd see if anyone can dyno tune one of these with TBE/IC. I'm actually very interested in the numbers.

W205 C400
Dont touch Racechip !!

Had it in my C180 W204, no gains, and lucky me i have a OBD reader: much error codes

People without OBD reader dont notice this.

Now i'm on a Vath tuning, more power and torque than they promised and zero error codes!
