Mercedes C230 Sport 6-Speed M272 - Horrible Exhaust Mod

- This is a 2007 Mercedes C230 with the exhaust cut off. The engine sounds excellent, but don't do this. Just get a real exhaust system, or a performance muffler at least.
MODS:
-82mm throttle body
-SLK350 Sport Composite intake manifold
-K&N drop-ins
-OETuning Stage 1
Lots of suspension
I did a muffler delete and got tips welded on, it looked good but was loud when I accelerated normally. I put the stock muffler back on until I got put my megan exhaust on it.
Thia engine m272 to have the best experinece sound you should add xpipe to its exhoust
If the engine is M272 or m274 ,276 you can install expipe and its not expensive like others
I love the honesty. Im 16 and just got one for 3k.
Mine was 4500 back in the day, with the manual trans and late-year sportpack. Was a great car.
I buyed a C230 with AMG Sport Paket für 3800€
Great car !
Cool video. I want to get a C230 or an SLK230 myself, preferably a manual. But I wouldn't mind an auto. Maybe if I get the V6 C230 I'll put just a muffler and an intake on it for sound. But if I get the C230 Kompressor or the SLK230 I'm leaving the exhaust stock because then it'll sound like garbage if it's loud.
Had a 4cyl C230 years before this one and left it bone stock. Great cars, just lacking some of the features the late sport models had. The autos are totally liveable and loveable, but there is that little bit of rareness that goes with a manual Benz.
let me know if you find the V6 C230
I own a Mercedes C230 avangarde from Germany and is an excellent car to drive
I had the chance to drive a C320 cupe from 2003 that has a M112 3.2L manual with a akrapovic exaust. that thing is sweat sweat sweat, the downshifts sound so deep. sadly the engine was at the end of its life, burning oil so its sitting now parked in a garage waiting for a rebuild (450 000km, the prev owner really did drive it)
Love the C320 Coupes with a manual! Very very rare around these parts, I've only ever seen two for sale in the past.
Just picked up another fun M272 car. You'll see it posted here soon
Feel free to DM me any questions about how to complete my intake manifold mods or anything else on my Instagram, @danny_playswithcars
This car does have an actual exhaust on it at this point.
how’s the support for the c230? looking at one currently in perfect shape, stock, but i’m curious as to how the support is and what all can be done for build around the 400whp range
If that's what you're targeting, you won't be happy with any of the W203 non-AMGs. The M112 is stout but a bit antiquated at this point, the M271 shakes at merely the suggestion of overboosting the supercharger, and the M272 will not tolerate boost. If you can find a late-model C350 with the 3.5 M272, you'll have a pretty quick car, but they're rare with an auto and one-of-a-handful with a manual.
If 400 or anything close is your number, you're going to want a C32 with it's supercharged M112 or a C55 with the M113. Neither make 400, but are close enough that they can be massaged into the vicinity. The C55 will likely do so more reliably, given it will have less issues with heat management.
Alternatively, I'd propose buying a W209-chassis. It's the same footprint as the W203 (widened a bit, but even uses the same struts/suspension parts as the car in the video above), but you can get it with a 5.0L M113 at 300hp in the CLK500, mid-300s with the M113 in the CLK55, or 380ish in the late-model CLK550 with its M273. Personally, I find the M273 CLK550 to be the best all-around performance bargain out there.
Hope this helps!
@@danny_playswithcars ok, sounds good. thanks for the response man. don’t know much about mercedes, more of a honda n vw guy haha, so not sure on a whole lot.
thank u tho man
@@sxnfvr just drive manual is the best, greeting from germany !!
Geiler Sound !
Great sound
6 speed damn wowww just woww 6 speed
How does the rest of the installation went, like maf sensors, injectors, airbox, and how does it feel now?
The maf and airbox were super easy, all just unclips and pops off very easily. Injectors were also easy, as I pulled the entire fuel rail off of the old manifold (just unplug the injector pigtails and disconnect the fuel pressure hose and it all pops straight off) and just popped in straight into the new one. Be careful to either lube your injector seals before you put the rail back in, or buy new injector seals if your old ones are questionable; it's annoying to get to the rail, so if a seal tears and you have to get back in there you'll be unhappy. The hardest part of the swap is taking everything apart, because there's a lot to get out of the way before the Mani comes out.
The car drives great. With this muffler delete, the car is definitely a bit slower with the decreased backpressure. Putting on a new muffler as soon as I go through my evap system to track down the check engine light seen in this video. Otherwise, runs well and it screams.
Love your car. Looks fantastic
@@danny_playswithcars thank you for all the information! I replace my intake manifold like w months ago and you are right there is alot to move out of the way to get it out but it's not hard, at least for me it was a fun project replacing the manifold and upgrading the lever flaps with the aluminum ones jaja
I like what you doing to yours and i can't wait to see it all put together without any issues, i was just wondering if you had to do any mods to fit the maf senskr and airbox since the throttle body is bigger than the oem, but you just use the oem maf sensor and airbox that came stock with your car right?
Thanks man, i appreciate it! Follow me on instagram if you have one to @streetlowliferider or to @Cal_benz in instagram of youtube
@@ca_benz no cutting or changing things out, just make sure you run the 82mm throttle body (off of the E550 or CLK550) and the associated air deflector, I gave the part number in part 2 of my manifold install).
Will shoot you a follow. Good luck!
Awesome car and Rare
Stay tuned. Have some fun news coming soon 👀
6 Speed....nice! Rare for Mercedes, with the beautiful analog Tach....how much do you want to sell it to me for?
This car was rear-ended and a total loss, but I have a much better version of the same car now. I'll be posting a video on it this week. Stay tuned 🙂
How much hp does rhe tune give ? I have a c230 and am very interested in this
Hi Mekaal. Check my most recent video for the dyno info as well as mod list.
Did you lose a lot of low end torque with this intake manifold?
Low end actually gained a bit. It lost midrange, which I think can be remedied if I tune it on a dyno a bit, but gained a ton of top end.
Update to this comment for anyone wondering; watch my latest dyno video
I owned the exact same car in MA. I wonder if it’s the same....
History report says it primarily was in NC, moved to NY, and now resides in CT with me. Also has a proper exhaust on it again at this point.
@@danny_playswithcars ah ha. Good stuff ! Mine would have been RI and MA. It was a fun car tho !
Hey Is there anyway that I can text or message you ? I have couple question.
You can message me on Instagram at @danny_playswithcars
Feel stupid saying it, but I didn't think the states got these with a 6mt. My sister has one but with the 7g. I love the size/feel of that chassis. Probably great as a manual
Coming to you live from Connecticut! They're out there with the 6MT, just a bit more rare. You can find them with the 1.8L, this 2.5L, and even in the 07 C350 with the 3.5L if you're insanely lucky. Then the W204 chassis had a ton of manuals sold.
Best part is, nobody really knows they're out there. So they're cheap!
@@danny_playswithcars very true, people aren't really shopping for those with a 6 speed the way the they are for e9X's or something. I knew they were around, but figured like most things the states got like 3 of them & the rest went to everyone else hahah
I have a c207 chassis (2010 e350 coupe) w/ the 3.5L which I'm not sure had a 6 speed w/ the m272 but the smaller e250 diesels did which the states never got
I have a C350 with the 7 speed auto, with manual mod and the paddles its quite enjoyable to drive. I never drive it in Drive, always in manual mode
@@Motorsportsgeek I do the same with my 2010 e350 coupe. Strangely though, if I really wanna dig in, it always makes more power when I let it shift itself. Feel like it'll always know better than me for spirited driving with all the rev limiters, etc
i deleted mufflers on a w204 c350 2008 model. it sounds good outside the car and it's not obnoxiously loud. However inside of the car it sounds absolutely fucking terrible. Inside the car the sound is very monotone and it's basically always droning, even at very low rpm's. I also can't hear the engine anymore and it sucks because i used to love hearing it. Will100% either put the original mufflers back on or i will replace those with some aftermarket ones that wont break the budget.
The Megan Racing MDT dual tip I had on this car afterwards (in a couple of other videos) was exactly what it needed to smooth the tone, make it a daily again and still sound good. You may struggle to fit it on both sides though. I was lucky to only have a single exit so a dual tip was an easy fit
I also have c230. Nice car but not racer in stock form.
