Mercedes CLS55 AMG W219, New Intake Pipes (Gold Tape Heatwrap)

Posted in Mercedes CLS55 AMG W219

Noticed that one of the plastic intake tubes was broken, so I replaced them both. Fortunately, the intake pipes only costs 11 euro per piece, which is a steal!

I added gold plated tape, to fend of radiating heat and keep the incoming air as cool as possible. Took quite some time and effort, but I am happy with the end result and how it looks in the engine bay.

Volvo S80 2.4T DO88.se Turbo Intake pipe

Posted in Blog Entries, Volvo S80 2.4T

Replaced the air filter and the turbo intake pipe.

The intake pipe was upgraded to a blue Do88.se / Do88 silicone intake pipe, which is a fair bit larger, but also deletes some bottlenecks from the original part (like the narrowing bend on the bottom and the “harmonica”).

Gives a little bit more power from the butt dyno and noticed more intake growl (which is a good thing) 🙂

Volvo S80 2.4T Modified Center Silencer

Posted in Blog Entries, Volvo S80 2.4T

When I had the OEM exhaust, I wanted to have the center silencer removed, as the OEM exhaust is very good in keeping the car silent. But this car needs to make a little noise, so I decided to modify the stock middle pipe.

Gives a little bit more sound, without being to loud.

Also weighed it, and it weighs a mere 6.7KG .

Toyosports 3″ Downpipe

Posted in Blog Entries

Na het monteren van mn nieuwe 3″ Toyosports Decat Downpipe (katloos) moest ik uiteraard een filmpje schieten. Niet alleen is de performance toegenomen, het geluid ook (in positieve zin). Wat een verschil met de originele downpipe, die heeft een grote restrictie. Snap niet dat Seat de Leon 1.8T laat uitademen door een rietje. Problem solved & genieten geblazen!
