If he is running the car with inadequate filter,selling the car with OEM filter to a buyer would be a cheating?
H&R filters (and looks like the above is a clone) generated lot of discussion on the net.
It is very likely true that they will provide few extra HP, but at a cost.
If you really value the few extra ponies more, than engine reliability, why not remove the air filter totally?
Cheap gain.
Coming to the exhaust, it is quite common, that US build engines have badly design pipes and people investing in BANKS, or other better systems gain a lot.
Don't think this is an issue on Mercedes.
