C43 Engine Code / Turbos
Hey Guys,
Does anyone know the engine code for our car (engine name)?
What turbos/sizes are the stock ones?
Possibly planning to rework the internals of the turbos or get slightly bigger ones.
Thanks in advance.

Ha, was just about to send you info and I saw NYCSoil sent you the link to the engine thread i posted. Turbos are made by IHI. The left and right side turbos are slightly different sizes. They are now on mercedes parts websites for about 2k per turbo. Good luck and please keep us informed!

I believe I read a few months ago that some company outside of the U.S. replaced the C43 turbos with the ones from the E43 which are bigger but uses the same engine. I expect buying the E43 turbos and then having the internals upgraded and put back into the C43 would be an option. Seems simple. Not sure why a tuner has not come out with this option.
