Supercharger muffler on the C32 engine ?
I did a search but could not come up with any info...
Just wondering if anyone knows if there are a resonator or muffler-type system on the C32 supercharger system similar to those found on supercharged C230's ?
Thanks..

You sure it's in the airboxes themselves ? I have already installed the SL55 intake but besides the bigger airboxes and tubing, I didn't notice anything in the way of a muffling system.
I know the C230's use a different supercharger setup but the muffler out of there system looks to be a totally separate piece :

"note" the M271 1.8L motors 2004-2005 C230 do not have this type of muffler. Only the M111 2.3L. Apprently a member on the Mbklasse.com boards took his M271 motor supercharger apart to find this, and when he did find it and took it out, it left a big square hole in the inlet, hence making the area very rough and would possibly contribute to some HP and/or flow losses.
what do you think Vadim?
