  • In this video, I had my buddy Mike over at 603 MTech & Mobile Service LLC install a brand new Tornado Tuning Performance Intercooler on my 2016 Mercedes-Benz W205 C-Class C300. This intercooler upgrade should add anywhere from 20-30 more HP. #Intercooler #TornadoTuning #MercedesW205 #C300

    I got a question for Mike. My dad has a W205 c class 220 cdi bleutec automatic. Since a few weeks while driving on the highway the car loses power and the gear does not changes back to a lower gear. We have been several times to the Mercedes garage but they can not find the problem and my dad does not want to lose the car cause he is very attached to it. You think you can help us out? Thanks in advanced and also thanks to Flexx that I came to know Mike :)

      @TheFlexxGarage  2 роки тому +3

      Everything improved. No joke, first day I got it installed…I drove an hour home on the highway and it was like 95 degrees out. As soon as I got near home…I decided to test out the car and it pulled hard and quick. You would think it would be laggy from the heat but nope. It was great! Even when the engine was hot. And for the past 2 weeks, it’s been pretty fun doing pulls with the car in Sport+ mode. My wife hates me. Hahahaha

    Flexx great video! One of those mods that many forgot but it really makes a great bang for the buck. I am curious, when you removed your stock IC out, did it have sludge/debris/oil? This would reflect the blowback of the vehicle as for some vehicles it's notorious.

      Thanks.
      Actually didn’t at all. Was clean as a whistle. This car only has about 40k miles and not driven hard at all.
      In my old 2012 Benz c250, that was just an air cool intercooler, there was oil pooled up on the turbo muffler and the turbo charge pipe leading into the inlet of the intercooler. I think i was at about 75k miles when I did the swap. A catch can would of helped. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    It would have been great to see some data from a torque app or equivalent of intake temps before and after. Cruising (to see how close they are to ambient) a pull to see how much faster they recover etc. I know you're a busy man, but just some ideas.

    Hi Flexx, great vids, just a quick question about the front trim pieces you added to the air vents at the front a while ago, I see they are still on, are they still stuck on with the same 3M tape as I am wanting to add some to mine but not sure if it's safe to do so with 3M tape alone. Thanks and keep up the great work

    Honestly, I've been waiting for a tune video. I hope you remove the V-Max and make some acceleration and top speed tests before and after. I like your idea to get more power, without being too aggressive to maintain reliability, because I want to do the same to my 2017 C300. It just went out of factory warranty, and I've been looking forward to give it a nice tune like yours. I also have the same rims like yours, have you considered spacers? Would it be a good idea?

    • @TheFlexxGarage
      @TheFlexxGarage  2 роки тому

      Already answered it in another comment. No need to replace them based on the condition. I know most people think “I should just change it to a new one while everything is apart” but sometimes a new one isn’t always guaranteed to work and could be defective. If a gasket is fine from a low mileage car and literally shows no signs of damage…I would personally leave it alone for this specific install. On a larger and more complicated install, yeah…should get new gasket, seals, bearings, etc.

      No. Sounds like you have a fuel issue. Either your fuel pump is weak and not giving your engine enough fuel to burn when you want to push hard on the gas pedal. Or your injectors aren’t spraying properly or your car desperately needs a tune up with new spark plugs too.
      If everything is fine, and you’ve just always had a slow accelerating car…then get a pedal tune. It’s makes all the difference in responsiveness.

    Question.. Does the intercooler not come with new gaskets? I dont understand why he wouldnt have put a new gasket in the coupler instead of the old one since you have it apart and its such a cheap thing to buy. Thats like getting a new transmission and not replacing the clutch.

      The car has less than 40k miles. The gasket was 100% fine. These gaskets are design to last the life the vehicle. Comparing this gasket to a clutch or throw out bearing is really far fetched.
