I have an intake on my car and want to go back to stock. Is the C36 stock air intake/box the same as one found on a C230k or C280sport? Also, if anyone has one for sale let me know...

if you got a kompressor its going to be different.

The C36 box is a modified C280 box, it has a additional air inlet pipe that sucks in air from the bumper area. It also uses a different filter that is notched for this new air inlet. Have your local MB dealer pull up the schematic on their EPC.

Does anybody have a stock C36 air filter box/assembly for sale? I could use one!

Now I'm thinking maybe I should just keep my intake on and build a heat shield or something. It get way too hot in my engine compartment.
