Going to pass on the cover, don't care if it's not as "pretty" as before as long as there's a few extra ponies involved *L*.

Blackbenzz,

Can you flip over your front air box cover and please give me the part numbers? My E55 air box is shipped and I will need the cover like your soon. Thanks.

Car above is C55, on which the airboxes are worth 10-12 RWHP, more with other mods like headers and cams.

We offer these boxes modified, ready to bolt on, with K&N filters for - $549. We are also looking into making a cover from 63s fit upfront or we can make a custom CF cover, like the last picture.

I will post further details on the covers.

Hi Vadim, so for the E500 moded airbox with K&N filter $549 and is it comes with that engine cover ?

Since the 1st Post... Has anyone done the mod??!!!

What's the airbox difference in wideness from a NA 55 to a 55K? 1 inch...
I guess the lenght is the same

Would like to see some real picture of customers after the mod.

However I did not use the 55k airbox vs the C55 (stock) airbox. I can tell you this though. When I first got the renntech airbox and did a dyno pull i only gained about 10-15whp over the stock C55 airbox. My resluts maybe different than what other may find, but the 55k airbox made no power for me.

Hey guys I know I’m super late on this thread, but does anybody know what airbox will make the most power out of my W210 2001 E55? It has Kleemann headers and tune..
