What’s your performance mods?

Making this post strictly for people that get into modifying the engine and upgrading. Want a post that has more information on it all since there’s starting to be more modded c300 out there. Post some pics and list of mods!

Currently have Stage 2 tune with AMR Performance that I love(have a write up on their comport). I have Catless downpipe and full straight pipe. Turbo kits blowoff spacer. Future mods are turbo kits turbo, methanol injection, hpfp, e85, burger tuning intake, ftp chargepipe and intake pipe.

This type of thread is helpful because I feel like C300's aren't popular cars for mods. I have a 2019, and it seems difficult to find much out there.

Stage 2 With Downpipe and Customized tune. In Mexico there are a lot of people that claims huge gains but this is not true.
Armaspeed filter and GFB DV+.
I`ve hear that the best option before to touch turbo is to change Intercooler, there`s a company that is place in USA that has an upgraded one, I`ll contact them and see biggest differences.

I contacted them yesterday, and in order to get the best gains, they claimed that we should see 15-18 hp`s, we need to change the FMIC and the UMIC.
The first one goes in the front of the car and the other one is on the top, just on the other side the air filter box is.

I haven’t seen anyone get a new front mount intercooler, tornado tuning Is the only company I’ve seen that offers a top mount intercooler and it’s close to 700

My advice still stands, stick to your current intercooler for now, unless you go full custom.

The front piece is the Heat Exchanger (HE), and the intercooler we have is called a Air-Water Intercooler (AWIC).

You should log air and water temps to see if your temps are consistent or variants a lot. From there you can decide which way to go.... but it's definitely not a stopping point to get an upgraded turbo.
