it does but WTF is this company never ever heard of it..and the R logo looks the same as the honda/integra modding companies......
dunno im thinking dont get it, air filters from reputable brands (omp, K&n, Green) already have the risk of damaging the mas/maf sensor, i dont even wanna think what air filters from chineese companies do

Ok well let me think about this brand, does anyone know where else i can get a similar one by a different brand thats fits a 98 c230?

well, some members on this forum believes that the weapon R intake is probably the best for our cars, u can go take a look.
in terms of short intakes like that, about a year ago someone gave me a roar intake solidly constructed with carbon fiber and it uses intake foam. i haven't tried it yet but the guy that gave me this said it made quite a difference on his ML 430. go look them up and see what u think.
my 2 cents.

Nowadays I too am looking for a good intake kit for my C200, and just checked the Weapon R website. The only intake system they have for Mercedes is supposedly for V6 models. Is that just written there or they actually dont work with inline 4 cyl engines like mine and C230?

Also, has anyone on this forum ever used the secret weapon on their cars? Any comments?

Thanks a lot.

i think the only thing u need to take into consideration is that if it would fit. if it does, i don't see any problem of putting it on a L4. as for the roar intake, it's cylindrically boxed in carbon fiber with 1 side open for intake. i dont know what kind of gain/loss it would give cause it's been sitting in my closet for a while.
