Looks like a really nice example. I have the same combination of colors. The wheels look good what diameter are they?

W202 w/ a 5.4L V8
Nice grab, this one was super low mileage if my memory serves correctly. What mods are you looking at?

Renntech has an airbox that will work if you want to try something a little different. they are pretty rare though. I did a w203 c55 airbox on my car, not sure if it made more power but it is a nice touch with the 5.4L swap. I think a guy on here makes larger airboxes, speed43. If you have the budget, you can source a kleeman s/c kit and cams for the car. They are also pretty rare but they pop up from time to time.

I can sell one for $395.00 with your core sent to me once you receive my custom air box. Or 515 straight out no need to send core. These c43 boxes are the hardest to make. Yet I charge less than the others I make. All so you can can afford it. Pm if anyone is interested.

Thanks.

Here are the bolt on parts I have, these may be difficult to find now:

1.) Evosport underdrive pulley kit
2.) Evosport phenolic spacers
3.) Renntech carbon fiber air box
4.) Kleemann headers
5.) Eurocharged ECU tune

From what I can tell Speed43's air box mod is similar to the Renntech airbox. The Renntech air box makes 10 WHP and Speed43's is a fraction of the price.

Thanks for mentioning my air box. And my box has been dynoed at 10HP10TQ just like the renntech...
