C63 AMG Arctic w/ Stage 1 Tune, DoubleXX pipe, MCD-631X coming soon
We are taking all that you say very seriously. I have spoken to Dadsc63, and I am cultivating some ideas and we will be working together to bring somehting to market that we feel is much needed in regards to CF hood/intake situation. ALL other ideas with merit are being considered as well. Chris and I will be refining these ideas and figuring out what is most feasable/responsible to build first.

What about a simple carbon panel that replaces the glass sunroof? I've seen requests for a complete carbon roof but I think a simple panel that eliminates the glass and fits and opens as a stock roof would yield a less expensive and easier to install option.

Anything you can offer - at more REASONABLE prices. Granted, quality isn't cheap, but $1k for a simple air box is a bit extreme in my view. I think with the seemingly inflated prices for these products from the preponderance of vendors, lower prices would translate into a larger volume of sales, making it workable.

Brian,
Would someone PLEASE design a new Ram Air hood that is functional with a new intake. You can easily get a much larger filter placed on top of the engine and have it feed directly into the two existing MAF sensors. The actual diameter where the air enters the intake at the back is large enough to support extra horsepower. However, getting the air back there is the challenge. I believe the intake tube size is sufficient but getting the air to the MAF's is the problem and gets worse with more mods. I know that tuning is an issue if we try to move the MAF's or delete one so I would focus on leaving the stock MAF's right where they are and more volume better cleaner colder air to them.
I know the photoshop is a little lame but you have to imagine that the current two raised fins would come up and then stay flat all the way across creating a center raised area. Perfect set up for ram air. Large single panel filter underneath that feeds the two stock MAF's.
