As for the o-ring, I refused to use the OEM silicone replacement. I opted for a Viton AS-151 to replace it. I ended up buying 10 (package).

If you want one, just PM me. It'll save you a couple of bucks.

Try here...........
They fit to the existing airbox with no problems.
But you need the bigger air supply of the Mercedes cover or a Needswings CAI or your wasting your time and money somewhat. Needs the tune to make full use of it, then it is noticeable, before, not so much.

OK, I read somewhere the MB number for the TB upgrade is ( A113 141 01 25 ), but read somewhere else this is the TB for the SRT6? Questions, first is this the correct # for the TB upgrade for the N/A? Second, is this the same number as for the SRT6 TB? Thanks!

You still need to either :
1. get a CAI
2. get the better flowing MB airbox & pipes ( I did the CAI, don't have the part #'s for the MB parts )

Hey George ( from George ), I am as cheap as you !! I got my CAI from a guy in San Diego that had sold his car. ( $200 ).
I got the c320 engine cover from EBay on a 'make an offer', offered $40 and got it !
I even got the EuroCharged cable from China for $20 + $5 shipping .....

That, I really don't know. Jake at EC had already sent a replacement for maxcichon's cable that I had borrowed. I guess someday I'll find out if it works ......

Can you explain the MAF portion? I was under the impression you used the same MAF just with the larger TB housing

Yes, you use the old MAF ( the one that came on the car with the 69mm TB ) with the larger plastic MAF housing.

picky, picky. One lousy little millimeter. 68 is correct, my typo.

BTW: installed Sprint Booster this morning that I traded with maxcichon for.
Now I will have to relearn how to drive, it sure likes to scoot now .......
