C63 6.3L AMG Air Intake Box System In fiberglass

Hi,

Some saler of internet propose some copy airbox from carbonio or Gruppe M fiberglass only for 800$ shipped, Is there any différence about the power between fiberglass and carbon?

Lots of these knock off floating around. No engineering or testing to back up if they actually add any HP/TQ. If you like the carbon fiber bling factor, i guess you might get them, but I wouldn't expect much if any power gains.

These make very little if any power over the stock inlets. I had them on my car and have ran all of my personal best without them.

The limiting factor isn't getting more air to the filters (which is what these were designed for) but the fact that our filters are just flat out too small.
