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.

C63, IS-F
I second a CF hood/intake idea with subtle heat extracting vents. That would be a hot item.

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.

Yes a vented bonnet would be a great idea

Very true will definitely work on keeping the cost reasonable. But do keep in mind this is all pre-preg carbon. Extremely light weight functional, strong and High quality.

That is actually top of our list. We are going to be doing the airbox in Carbon and Carbon Kevlar. we will start development in the coming months.

I am with you on that and I do not have little ones yet but the child seat is awesome.

Thanks beat me to it

Yeh a roof with sunroof delete is also in the works. Trunk would look great But I am hesitant to pull more weight off the rear. but for 50/50 weight and overall lb. loss that might work for some.

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.
Definitely something we will look into.
