Turbokits, do you have a front mounted intercooler upgrade yet for the C300?
The car is air-water intercooled, it's not a simple change. It would also create a bit more turbo lag by switching to a much longer charge pipe system than the stock stuff. I also don't see much room to run charge pipes to the front grille and back, there's a lot of stuff in there already.

This ^^^
If during the process of testing the turbo upgrade we feel there is a need for an upgraded charge cooling system, we will address it at that time.
Some teaser pics of the TurboKits.com C300 Turbo Upgrade. Fresh out of the machine shop. We have a customer bringing up his C300 after the new year so we can start testing!
Nice port match. What's the flow rate of this turbo vs. stock
This turbo will flow about 30% more than stock at MAX, but it's not just a peak HP or peak flow game here. The stock turbo is fun, but drops off quickly, we'll make more peak power, but expand the usable powerband by a few 1000 RPM with huge power increases under the curve.
Wondering what the status of your testing is with this, I know you guys said the donor car was coming in after the new year. We’d love to know if there are any complications that have arisen from whatever testing you may or may not have done yet.

Do you plan on doing testing with a company that actually knows euro cars well?
We've been doing nothing but turbos going on 17 years now and have a few years experience with upgrading Mercedes engines. AMR is a leader in the Mercedes Tuning field, so I think we're pretty well covered in terms of getting it done properly.
