I'm still checking out with Hurricane to customise one for our car as I dun really fancy the oil based nature of K&N.

[Guest aspade]

OK, I am going to get the K&N filter. Can B-ers tell me what the price you get from local dealer ? The model is 33-2914 and it is selling for 42-50 USD excluding delivery on the web.

Anyone who wants to get one can list their names or PM me so maybe I can get some group discount .....

Hi Aspade

You can check the model number here http://www.knfilterchargers.com/search/appsearch.aspx

The worries I have is actually buying from US ... Mercedes have not imported any A or B class into USA ... So why are they listing this on their website. The European / Germany Ebay sells as well but a little more ex than US. May take a risk to try if the local dealers are still using the 1.8 SGD-USD exchange rates.

That site seems to be for international and not confined to US. When you click to buy, you are asked for the country and it will direct you to McWell in Singapore as the dealer.

Hi folks,

Btw, what's the difference between the KNN filter and the sprint booster.

Seems like both also helps increase horse power and fuel effeciency.

Can bros here help clarify and if cycle will void our warranty for such installations?

Cheers

The KNN filter is supposed to make your engine breathe better as the filter element supposedly flows better than than stock. Do not expect massive HP gains. The gains only happen when you start throwing at least a few grand at the car in terms of performance parts.

The sprint booster is designed to give you maximum throttle response effect by overcoming built in delays in electronic controlled transmission systems. This device does not increase HP and certainly not fuel efficiency. Your right leg controls the efficiency. 8.)

I can understand your worries bro, why dun you guys check it out with MBM. Maybe he can offer you guys a good deal without even a GB le.

At least if anything goes wrong, MBM can warranty for exchange ma.

Last but not least, you need someone to wash, dry & oil the filter for you FREE.

Just my one cent, not worth save the 5, 10 or 20 dollar go through so much hassle.

After taking the plunge to get the filter from the internet, I have to agree with Kompressor.

The listed price for the filter in the website was about US$43. Sounds cheap, but when the associated logistic cost is added (thru VPost) , the final cost came up to S$95.70 ! And it took 3 weeks. So the savings isn't that great as originally thought.

But the benefit of the filter is undeniable. While no noticeable power boost, I found the economy of the car has improved by about 5-10%. Under Sports mode, the shifting is much smoother when applying full throttle.

[Guest angela]

is there a dry cone for b 170? i used Apexi before but not sure if Merc can use that. Comments?

[Guest aspade]

Not sure if you have had a chance to take a look at the filter ... Definitely not cone shaped. But they may have something that fits ... Should somebody try and let us know the result ?
