The OEM airboxes utilize dense paper filtration media and baffled internal chambers that create significant air resistance. Under high-load scenarios, the corrugated plastic intake hoses cause internal turbulence, disrupting laminar flow to the compressor wheels. Furthermore, these plastic components are highly susceptible to heat soak in the cramped 4.0L V8 engine bay, leading the ECU to pull ignition timing as intake temperatures rise, which results in a measurable loss of mid-range torque and top-end horsepower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kyostar induction kit solves these bottlenecks by utilizing mandrel-bent 3-inch aluminum tubing, which ensures a smooth, high-velocity air path from the filter to the turbo inlets. Aluminum provides superior durability and heat dissipation compared to factory plastics. The system features two large-capacity, dry pleated filters that are washable and reusable, providing increased surface area for maximum CFM without the risk of MAF sensor contamination common with oiled filters. The included black powder-coated heat shields isolate the intake charge from the radiant heat of the M177 engine block. These modifications yield dyno-proven gains of 12-14bhp and significantly improve turbo spool-up time and throttle response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e2015-2021 Mercedes Benz C-Class, GLC-Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eM177 \/ W205, C205, X253, C253\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e469-503 hp \/ 479-516 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2015-2021 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG (W205 Sedan \/ S205 Estate)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2015-2021 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG S (W205 Sedan \/ C205 Coupe \/ A205 Cabriolet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2017-2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC63 AMG (X253 SUV \/ C253 Coupe)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2017-2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC63 AMG S (X253 SUV \/ C253 Coupe)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Mercedes Benz Precision Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for the high-performance M177 Bi-Turbo platform, this intake system respects German engineering tolerances.
