C63 Air intake - Arma

Hi

I took the delivery of the C63s in Nov 2015 and have enjoyed the car ever since.
A recent modification of the air box has transformed the car's character quite noticeably.
The induction sound is apparent, throttle response has became sharper in mid to top end of the rev range.....IMO.

Dyno result shown a gain of 6 - 8hp during 5 runs.

Here are some pics to share with you guys.

C63S
Looks far better than the plastic that's there as standard.

Can I ask how much the intake was?

Looks good, would love to hear it in some videos

My only gripe is that you lose the engine builder name plaque

Wow, this looks awesome.

Does this new intake utilise the factory size air filters or does this setup come with new high flow filters?

Love to know how much, I've been looking for some carbon fibre for the engine bay.

I was thinking of getting the turbo cover remanufactured in CF but the intake is a good addition.

Does the Arma intake really only made so less more hp? There are a lot of intakes that work really good like modal works, blckboost etc. Is arma not so good like these?

I had asked them via email. They said 3-5% increase over stock. I think the dyno they have is intake for intake, no other mods (vs tuning for intake, etc).
