Dry Carbon Fiber Air Intake Kit for Mercedes AMG A45(W176)/CLA45(C117) M133 2.0T, 2014-2018

This dry carbon cold air intake kit is custom built for Mercedes M133 2.0T turbo engine for AMG A45 W176 and CLA45 C117. W176 and C117 feature compact engine bay. The turbo runs at extremely high temperature under heavy load. Stock plastic intake suffers poor thermal insulation, leading to obvious heat soak, higher intake temperature and lower oxygen density. This limits continuous turbo power and causes power drop at mid-to-high RPM. Our prepreg dry carbon intake with dedicated cold air scoop draws cool air from front grille and blocks thermal radiation from turbo and cylinder head. Enlarged intake chamber and optimized air path reduce turbulence and intake restriction, boost airflow, improve turbo spool response and unlock M133 engine power, delivering rich textured turbo induction sound. Direct bolt-on replacement, all OEM MAF sensor and vacuum line mounting points preserved. No cutting required. It works without ECU tuning. Better power gain can be achieved with Stage 1 ECU remap, popular upgrade for older M133 hot hatch street and mountain road enthusiasts.
