Hi everyone,
I’m Thinking of put the Modalworks VTA on my 2023 C63s coupe. please can any body that has put this Device on their c63 m177 let me know how good is the item compared to the Wisetec VTA. One thing I did hear is that the Wisetec one can get water in the motor and the Modalworks one does not. I have to make the Right decision because I live in Florida and we get a lot of flooded streets when it rains.

You don't need a blow off valve man what makes you want one? For the pshhh sound? Be honest 😂
@VFORCE09 I bought the Renntech VTA's. I had Zac Motorsports ones, but they only have one vent port and the Renntech's have more ports and also have a second O-ring. The Weistech horn thing VTA's mount on the front of the valve so any water that makes it's way through the radiator in heavy rain could theoretically work it's way in there. With the Renntech ones, you still leave the factory vent hoses connected to the intake so the only way you would get water in the engine is if you were driving through hood-deep water while under boost, and then let off the gas so the valves opened. I only mention this because... well... you live in Florida, and the stereotype is real.... I can already read the article headline: "Florida man drives AMG Mercedes into flooded street full throttle... Car makes psshhh sound then gulp sound." @Jimmy_c63s of course it's for the pssshhhh! That's why I did it. Or we could read from the company advertisements about the benefit of VTA being: Not recirculating hot air from the bypass back into the turbo intake.
