OE C55 Airbox for sale?
Hi guys I recently bought a 2001 Mercedes E55 AMG and told from my good friend that helps me with the car said that swapping my airbox with a C55 airbox will add about 12 hp. If so, does anybody have an extra one or is anyone selling one that I can buy off them?

It wont fit without removing the water drain vent in the hood. Go look at my build thread on the 210 page. Build a custom intake dont waste your time, or have Speed43 build a modifed stock airbox

yep, really soon, lol i know you are very interested 
so this has been discussed a lot in the past, but new m113 amg engines generally dyno around 10-15 higher than the older series engines. we know cams are little different, and i recently compared the pistons and they are slightly different. none of these have a big impact, its only 10-15 whp. torque between both cars are generally the same for most of the RPM curve. anyway, i dont think there is any hp to gain from airbox. eurocharged suggestions are best and cheapest options.

maybe it comes down to the dyno, but i generally agree with you its pretty much same. difference is within dyno variation anyway. whats even more impressive is how these cars even with lot of mileage are still running strong.
btw do you know if eurocharged is coming back to north east for dyno tune day?

Just saw your build thread, how much did it cost you to
build yours? You also said you had to retune it.. mine has Kleemann headers and tune, would I need to retune mine?

About 300$ I think, you don’t have to use carbon fiber you can you stainless pipe, that will make it cheaper. I have also changed up the filter now, with a Rotofab filter and a velocity stack from K-tuned that allows me to run a 6inch filter.
Not sure if you will have to retune yours? Have you ever dynoed it? What are your AFRs? I think I made a thread about the intake it’s self.
