I've been following your first post and I have to take my hat off to you guys.
That is a great effort from a sponsor.
I wasn't originally interested but that price gets me thinking

Thank you for the positive feedback and PM's so far. As a new MBWorld sponsor we figured that we would direct some promotional dollars right in the pockets of the community by helping out fellow enthusiasts. Here's hoping for a good distribution of product.

Rob/Mark,

Thank, you so much for your prompt and sincere attentiveness. You guys run GREAT company and absolutely killer customer service.


GUYS- Take advantage of this offer, especially for us MBWorld members. I assure you that it's a great deal from an outstanding company. I have had the same product for over 3 years and it has treated me right, in looks and function. You will NOT get a better one time deal. I would recommend this WAY before any ROW product. I am not affiliated, just a very loyal customer.

They, as new sponsor members, are offering a great deal on a fabulous product. This is an unsolicited testimonial. Good luck and I know you guys will enjoy and benefit from their CF air-boxes. I hope you guys enjoy!!!

Can I get a full refund for my 9 month old carbonio box and buy it from them instead??? Haha...excellent airbox...mid end and top end torque can be felt and heard...excellent quality...great buy

jordanaf

Opps. Wrong thread

SROC276

Oh am seeing it but would rather it turn yellow honestly....Kevlar carbon look...can't wait

How does this increase power? I just bought some new AFE airfilters so I don't need those...would the price still be the same if I was looking at just the boxes and cover?

Thanks

Carbonio

Power is increased through 3 ways:

1. Our airboxes are much larger in volume than even the ROW airboxes and their shape is optimized to increase flow. The increase of volume of air already past the filters increases torque and throttle response.

2. The use of thermal insulated carbon ensures that the inlet temperatures are kept as cool as possible. Colder air contains more O2 and therefore makes more power. There is no magic here just application of higher end materials which were not reasonable for AMG to use when mass producing these cars.

3. The supplied high flow filters offer all of the well known gains that those filters do. Our kits are sold complete and we do not ship them without filters. If you find yourself with extra filters you can be a good friend to an AMG buddy and give them away (or keep them as spares).

I hope this clarifies things.

How long will this sale be going on? I'm greatly interested, but I'm still waiting on my VIN for my 507 sedan. Nervous to buy anything with reports of other forum members getting their orders cancelled. Carbonio, please pm me the details and I will try to get word from my dealer tomorrow. Thanks.

Carbonio

The special will run until our secret number of allocated units are sold. Regarding our company we have been around for over a decade and have an excellent reputation primarily in the Ferrari world. We are a little new to the Mercedes market but have no intentions of running off with anyone's money. Remember the product we are selling is IN STOCK and will ship same or next day of confirmed payment. Many of these issues you have read about online are from sellers who are using customer deposits to finance their inventory purchases. We are the manufacturer so there are no such games here. If you are interested in proceeding PM me and I'll send you a discount code for your purchase.

edwardsflight33

Not questioning your company or your product. My concern is with Mercedes. A few MBWorld members who have ordered 507 sedans had their orders cancelled by Mercedes due to the change in which factories the C63 sedans will be built as MB retools for next gen. Once I get my VIN I'll let you know. Not going to spend money on a part that I may not be able to use and definitely not going to prevent another member from the opportunity.

If I can't get in on the deal, it would suck, but it'd be okay. Not the end of the world and I can always use the money on headers...

Carbonio

Ah that explains it. Thanks for taking the time to set me straight.

I need this for my BS. PM sent.

NellyRod

Yes you do sir. The aesthetics alone are such an improvement over the AMG plastic boxes. This MB World special is a great deal compared to the MSRP. I bought mine slightly used from another member for $1300. I guess patience pays off.

Merc-Skycap

I'm interested but would like to know more about the warranty. I've heard of instances where things like these turn yellow due to the heat after a few months. Also do you guys provide instructions for the not so installation savvy C63ers to be able to install this on their own, provided they have the correct tools?

Swrbxxx

Picked mine up yesterday.
Installed in 25 minutes, product comes with instructions.
The carbon weave is flawless and the quality is top notch! Well worth the money.

I should have a few pictures up soon, just waiting on my mercedes star as its being painted black

Carbonio

All of our products carry our Unlimited Mileage Guarantee against failures in materials and workmanship. We stand behind our product and if there is an issue we always do our best to resolve it.

On the subject of colour change in carbon here is a place where a little education is key. The reality is that the blends of carbon and resin that have the best insulation properties are also the ones that are most sensitive to colour change when exposed to extreme heat. The change is not extreme but merely a seasoning where the carbon will go from a hard black and take a golden hue. To illustrate this I have attached a photo of a Koenigsegg where the airbox carbon is clearly different in colour to the carbon of the chassis (different blends of carbon optimized for different applications). For those not so familiar with carbon the tire world has a similar parallel. The stickiest and fastest track tires are also the ones that turn the most blue after heat cycling them; merely the cost of performance

Lastly our website has installation instructions published for all of our products. They are at the bottom of each product page indicated by an icon with a wrench on it. Here is the link:

Just ordered mine today...can't wait till it's here..I'll post some pics and such when it's installed...Thanks Carbonio for the good customer service!

jordanaf

Just got mine!!!! Gonna go on first thing Saturday morning.

Rob/Mark, thanks you guys have been very helpful and surely knowledgable.

Carbonio

We are almost out of the promotional stock but there are a few left. To answer some common questions:

1. The front cover comes as part of the kit. It is NOT extra. You get it ALL!

2. The kit comes with genuine K&N high flow air filters. Again no need to buy anything extra.
