08 C300 Performance upgrades..?
Hey guys,

Im new to Mercedes and I just purchased my 1st. 2008 C300 4Matic Sport, I was wondering where would be the best place to locate performance upgrades in CT.
Also what upgrades are available for this model that you might have used and recommend?
- Performance chips
- Ecu mangement
etc.

Also, is Mercedes affliliated with anyone where you can get available upgrades that dont void warranties

Actually that doesnt help me, Ive searched and your search function is not giving me the results im looking for, Thats why i asked members on here to point me in the right direction, My times limited on the forum so i figured maybe links to personal vendors members use or suggestioned might help more.

Thanks

theres more ways as well, you can do intake, pulley kits, some exhaust refinement, you won't make 50HP+ or antyhing like that but with a few of those combined 20-25 should be possible. hope that helps.

It seems like the 350s get something new coming out every week but the lowly 300s have some pretty slim pickings.

I would like to have a short throw kit for the manual transmission but haven't found anything yet. Has anyone seen them for the C300?
