CTS Turbo intakes install + quick review: SO QUIET! Mercedes E400 wagon (M276 C400/C450/C43AMG/w213)

[@vinhsanity]

Was looking at this for my C43 because I’m doing minor mods / a Stage 1+ with intake, downpipes, and AMR OTS Tune.

[@sayit2times398]

With all those mods thats a valid stage 2 right there 💥🔥🔥🔥

[@Emadifications]

Did you get it?

[@albertbell6576]

Thank you for the video! Looking to get this for my e43

[@Emadifications]

Should be similar. You may not even have the padding I had to remove.

[@bryangaita2753]

I got a check engine light on after install the sensors are fully plugged in any advice?

[@Emadifications]

Interesting. I would recommend disconnecting the battery for a bit and reconnecting and see if it come back. Otherwise, get the code scanned. That'll tell you what it's on for and you can figure out if it has to do with the intake

[@Emadifications]

Is it running okay at idle and slow driving?

[@G63-s1n]

Cool wagon man 👍 , what set of wheels , dimensions you have on ? I have a 2018 e400 wagon I just did only the computer program from weistec engineering,it has more power , but I would like to do some other mods mostly exterior appearance. Thanks

[@Emadifications]

I heard that weistec tune is awesome! Once I'm out of warranty, I may do it as well. The wheels are just wheels from my audi s4. They are 20x9 +35 and thanks!

[@G63-s1n]

@@Emadifications the wheels on Mercedes are from Audi ??! How could be this possible to fit?? 😳

[@Emadifications]

@@G63-s1n same lug pattern and hub bore. They fit right on.

[@alexb00007]

Great video, thanks! I recently got an '18 E400 Coupe and want to get more turbo noises as well, so I'm on the same quest :) Subscribed, post more about your m276 if you have a chance. Cheers 🍻

[@Emadifications]

I plan on it. A few more parts should be coming in soon. Just trying to recoup funds since the new purchase. I heard the e400 coupes are fun! I think I'm gonna try the CTS VTA next.

[@azaankhan9193]

Damn. Was thinking about getting these for my 2018 E400 coupe but not too sure due to the noise restriction. On the other hand, I have gotten muffler + resonator delete done. You won’t regret it

[@Emadifications]

@@azaankhan9193 I'm wondering if the wagon has more dampening than other models? But yes. I am doing electric cutouts to the mufflers. I want the option of being quiet or loud. Excited to see what it does.

[@azaankhan9193]

Has the check engine light come up since the install?

[@Emadifications]

@@azaankhan9193 nope. No light.

[@bimmerlife5452]

hey bro will this work for 2017 E43?

[@Emadifications]

Looks like it. But just keep in mind, they barely make any sound difference and not really sure about any performance gain. www.ctsturbo.com/product/cts-turbo-air-intake-kit-for-mercedes-benz-m276-v6-twin-turbo-engine-c400-c450-c43amg-e400-and-more/

[@jlgroovetek]

Interestingly, the MST intake is super noticeable audibly - both for spooling and when air is being diverted.

[@Ban1l]

Update on intake how it is?

[@Emadifications]

It's fine. No issues or anything. Still very quiet and makes a very small difference in sound. Worth it if you can find it used cheap or so, but $400 for very little sound is disappointing. No power gains noticed. As expected.

[@Ban1l]

@@Emadifications I guess you need to go stage 2 to see power gain :)

[@Emadifications]

@Ban1l ha yeah for sure. I just have had bad luck with Germans so I'm gonna keep it stock. No tunes sadly.

[@stephengomes9464]

How long does it take ? The shop I bought mine is saying about 3-4 hours

[@Emadifications]

If I did it again? 30 min max. The first time I did it? 2 hours cause I didn't realize you need to remove some of the padding. Most of that was trying to figure out why the housing wasn't sitting fine. (Didn't remove padding)

[@NotLik3Th3m]

No PE that’s why soo quiet

[@hg1496]

Worst intake ever! Metal heat shields, sits above the hot turbo, open pod design. Go with the logos engineering motorworks intakes best designed on the market

[@Emadifications]

Yeah this was the first time I was very disappointed with CTS. I'll switch eventually. Lots of other priorities right now unfortunately.

[@NotLik3Th3m]

These are fine lol the logos are just positioned different ..: the intakes really ain’t doing nothing and that’s for ALL of them . Don’t get it twisted tho if you can get logos get them but don’t hate on cts or bms or any other brand lol they all useless intakes
