- MB C Class W205 C250d 2015
Hi, I've had my W205 C250d for a few months now and I'm booked for a remap soon, now I was playing with the idea of getting the car to 300bhp tho I soon realised that would be quiet a jump and it would most likely involve a new uprated turbo and probably not worth it(for me).
All of that being said I'm still looking to get the best of this car without running a bill into the thousands but there are a lot of things I don't currently know about this car...had an A5 TDI before and that was completely something else never had any Merc before.
So here are a few questions that I would be interested in and can't find a definitive or at least convincing answer to(as the info on this car is very limited as are parts at least compared to my A5)...If anyone would be so kind to help me I'd greatly appreciate it.
1.How much torque can the 7G Auto box take?
2.I'm considering a DPF delete(I've been quoted 250£) would it make a difference(and how big) to my results after the map? Also since I'm gonna remove my DPF somewhere different from where I will get the map will I be able to still drive it for a bit or it would need mapping then and there.
3.Is the EGR delete as simple as just software based or you'd actually need blanking plates like on some cars?
4.What would I need to get closer(not necessarily reach it) to that 300bhp and possible 600nm torque? I mean I'd imagine...I would need to do the dpf/egr removal... a new intercooler but I still need to find one for my car.
4.When I was driving my car had decided it was time for an engine management light...I scanned the car and realized it was a nox sensor... took it back to big motoring world where I bought it from and they confirmed and they were supposed to change it for me..but 1 day before appointment they went into lockdown and I don't know if I'll be able to go to them before I go get the remap...Is that going to be an issue? I think they should be able to even disable it if I took out the DPF as I don't see the point in it anymore unless I'm missing something(might be wrong).
Well if you managed to get so far I appreciate it and welcome any help or advice. I know there was an old 2014 post where GAD tuning were claiming they were working on a c250 cdi supposedly trying to break 300bhp idk what happened to that project...I'd be interested. Thank you
