Dont get me wrong though, Renntech is a great company that does amazing work. But you definitely pay for the quality. Putting a renntech box on a car as old as ours seems like a waste of money. That 2k can be better used toward engine mods, suspension mods, exhaust mods, wheels, interior, etc...

Lol, renntech is WAAAAY too expensive in my opinion. Airbox wont do much honestly, so spending 2k on a carbon fibre one seems a little insane.

The Renntech box is still absurdly priced for what it does. The AMG box with some good filters will give you around 15 RWHP (I've dyno tested this). 2k+core is not worth it vs. the 400 or so an AMG box will cost, no matter how pretty the carbon fiber is.
+1 for what the other guys said here though. These cars cost bucks to mod but they're a classic IMO. The 208 is a great car with a timeless design. I've had mine for 14 years as well and it runs beautifully.
