Summary

Mercedes-Benz spread the M270 turbo four across the compact range - A-Class, CLA and GLA, in 1.6T and 2.0T forms - and gave every one the same restrictive standard air box. This MST Performance cold air intake system replaces it with precision-engineered aluminium pipework designed for faster, smoother airflow into the turbo. One part number covers nine applications from 2012 on, from A180 to GLA250, turning a muted compact into one with a cleaner intake route and an audible note under load. All fittings for a direct OEM-replacement install come supplied.

Best For

  • A250 and CLA250 drivers adding induction character to the 2.0T
  • A180, A200 and GLA 1.6T owners sharing the same M270 fitment
  • Standard or remapped compacts opening up the intake side
  • One intake part across a mixed A-Class, CLA and GLA garage

One Kit For The Compact Mercedes Family

A shared engine deserves a shared fix. MST's design principles - accelerate the air, minimise turbulence, use top-quality components - apply identically whether the M270 sits in an A-Class hatch or a GLA crossover. The everyday result is a compact Mercedes that responds with an intake note when you accelerate and stays refined the rest of the time, standard or tuned.

Questions before you order

Frequently asked questions

Does one kit really fit both 1.6T and 2.0T cars?

Yes - both capacities are M270 variants sharing the intake layout, so the applications in the table are all served by this part number.

Is this suitable for the A45 AMG?

No - the 45-series AMG models use the M133 engine and a dedicated MST kit. This part covers the standard M270 range.

Will it change how the car drives daily?

Cruising manners stay standard; the differences are a freer-breathing intake route and a more audible induction note under acceleration.
