$3950 for the airboxes.... plus $2250 for the engine cover... not cheap... but I am sure it was not cheap to develop either.

All of them, as much as I can...
Just curious why separate prices for airbox and engine cover...

Are they available separately? From the pic, it looks like they have to be installed as a set.

Hey I agree it looks damnnnn!! Gooood!!! but $6200.00 for 15 extra horses sounds pretty steep...They should just advertise it under the auspice of dress up your engine bay...forget the rediculous 15 ponies that's a joke!

I would say its a little steep too... I bet if it was for a C class it would cost a lot less even if it cost almost as much to manufacture.... probably because they would sell 1000 for the C class and they sell 20 for the CL... damn exclusivity is expensive.

I have one on order
I agree that the HP increase is a joke, but they look very good. I ordered them from Bob, so when I get them I'll let you know what I think.

It's more of a function over form mod, but I'm sure it increases throttle tip in.

The current production only has the logos on the air boxes. So I guess 2 is better than 3. I would like to see only one on the cover.
