Are you aware of a restriction in the factory one?
Only reason I ask, is after testing the c300 for example, it was found zero performance gain from air intake modification.. M274. (eg ARMA sport intak doe little on this application).
Where as the M113 AMG lump had a noticeable restriction at the filter and intake pipe to the turbo.... (eg the MISHIMOTO intake mod benefits this application).
So whislt MB do get it very right sometimes, they also miss a trick every so often, (or conform to other perfromance requirments eg noise, economy etc).
Cheers
