I found this on one of the blog. It looks like its air intake box that is made out of carbon fiber. I think that its made to get more air in and for the looks it looks great!

Does anybody know who makes this? Carbonio?

Looks pretty good. Where did you find it?

That's pretty cool!

I found this on one of shop blog but they did not explain anything about it. Maybe they made it? I tried calling them but it seems close. Do you think this kind of product work?

I think more air is only needed if you've done some serious exhaust work to increase the flow, via either long tubes or cat deletes. You would then need a tune to take advantage of it.

Very nice, i bet it's 3k, maybe revozport can make a knock-off

whoa that think looks like it can flow some air. if you find out where to get it plz pm me info tnx.

More info, please!

I read this off the carbonio website.

its suppose to give like 5-10HP more, but it never said if that includes the drop in filter or not.

sry for offtopic but dude you car is HOTTTTTTTTT
and if i say it or said it more then once dont mind me.

Haha. Sorry for offtopic x2, but your car's HOTTTTTTTT, too!!

I have never been a big fan of RED MB cars but man (avengerboater) your car is SICK

sorry off topic

can you give us a link i cant find it on there site

Here you go!

http://www.carbonio.net/performance/...airboxkit.html

yeap same site i looked at em i missing something or its not there anymore.
im not looking for the airboxes.

the thing is that they don't mention if the 18-21HP gain???

A) airbox+filter

or

B) airbox only

I mean if the airbox can gain 18HP damn that is a very impress gain if you ask me.

noooooooooo sry man im looking for that front piece not the airboxes and to answer you question its the filters that make the power not the airbox. the airbox is slightly wider inside but if you have the "ROW" airboxes and not US you fine with just the filters.
here is where you can get them. http://www.pipercross.net/panelfilte...2=680&app=3311

your looking for the front piece that extends out towards the grill?

let me know if you find it.

As soon as I get info on this I will let you all know. It seems that shop is close today so I will try tomorrow.

I am curious as to how it attaches to the stock boxes. The engine has to move(up and down) and thats why the stock inlet tubes have the accordian style so the engine can move around without cracking or damaging the intake tubes. Wonder how this intake set up allows the engine to move independently of the stiff carbon fiber intake?

Good point, Keith. Also, did Carbonio change the design of the box tops now? The ones from the link look smoother where they transition into the Y-pipe.

Hiro, please keep us posted. I would like more info on this inlet scoop tray. Gruppe M?

I emailed this to carbonio to see what they say

Their response will be, "how come we didn't think of that??"

The cost of that piece in CF must be pretty scary....well for me.

Got info on the product.

Its made by Gruppe M with this shop. For a couple of month they will only sale in Japan they said.

Power Gain: 18hp
Price: 248,000 yen (around $2,696)

Its expensive for this much gain but it sure looks good! Japan is always expensive so when it goes to US maybe it will become cheaper.

I bet on a dyno you wouldn't see 1.8 hp, I still want one tho for maybe 269$
