*Product Release* ALPHA Performance Billet CLA45 AMG Intake
The very first Alpha Performance component for the Mercedes-Benz 45 Series AMG (A/GLA/CLA45) lineup is now available with more to come in the near future! We began with an obvious hindrance to the performance of the 45 AMG series platforms which happens to be the stock intake air filter assembly.
The factory intake was designed conservatively in an effort to muffle intake and turbo sound. Unfortunately, in order to do so, inside diameter of the inlet is reduced to a suffocating 2.6 inches! The Alpha 45 Series AMG Performance Intake System widens the inlet to 4 inches using a CNC billet aluminum adapter flange while offering a pleasant, more aggressive intake sound that you’ll actually appreciate.
Our Alpha 4″ filter inlet compared to the stock 2.6″ filter inlet
Clear anodized CNC billet aluminum intake inlet
Synthetic high-flow dry media filter outperforms comparable leading brand with no oiling required.
Completely washable and extremely durable, our synthetic high-flow dry media filter was designed to last the lifetime of your 45 Series AMG. It also requires no oiling and provides greater flow efficiency and filtration than the comparable leading brand. By simply installing this Alpha air intake upgrade, you can expect a 20+ horsepower increase with no additional mods necessary!
20+ horsepower gains with the Alpha Performance Intake alone
Exclusive Benefits
20+HP increase in just 15 minutes
Uses factory ducting for cooler air charge and maximum power
Reduces turbo lag
Smooth transition for best airflow
High-flow, low maintenance dry media filter
No computer tuning needed
Applications
C117 2014+ Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG
X156 2014+ Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG
W176 2013+ Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG
$299.95 http://www.amsperfor...ake-system.html

Man... to have you guys get in on the CLA45 platform just made my day! Friend of mine runs your Alpha 7 tune on his GTR and another the Alpha 10. Can't wait to see what you guys are able to do for our 45AMGs.

20hp for an air intake alone sounds a little too good to be true actually. I would need more proof of that as previous attempts with air intakes have only given marginal gains.

For those not familiar with us there is one thing we dont play around with...numbers. The chart we are showing is a very conservative engine HP estimate. However even on the dyno we picked up a peak of 17whp and over 20-25whp in areas. This was by no means a glory run either. We actually threw out the highest after filter chart and the lowest stock chart to display the averages of both before and after.
Putting our name on a product means a great deal to us. When we advertise a number, you can trust you are going to get every bit of that out of our products or MORE.
As you can see in quite a few areas we are exceeding 20WHP let along 20hp at the engine. This is nothing more than our intake on a bone stock car with a bone stock tune.

I would be more than happy to have these results in my GLA 45 with a relative simple intake upgrade, to say the truth and I am well aware of AMS and its reputation! Do you have a torque chart to show us also?

Brilliant product, so glad you guy used dry media filter too! Oiled filters are a thing of the past.
Goig from 2.6 go 4.0 especially on a turbo car will definitely yield those results. And I am glad you kept it a true cold air by retaining the stock airbox.
Well done!

MBWorld Fanatic!
This looks interesting, but I'm a little apprehensive on jumping in without a regular dynograph w/torque & RPM numbers.
Any chance that might come up in the near future?

IM sure other owners will start reporting their findings soon. We sold a good amount in the 24 hours since the release.

I think the ARMA intake dyno had at least a 13HP increase so ya I can see that being the case
Crazy this car makes around 460HP crank with 3 simple mods, ECU, DP, Intake
