By allowing a greater volume of intake charge air; Renntech carbon airbox upgrade allows for greater horsepower and torque across the entire RPM range. The result is an additional 10 HP and 10 Lb/ft with increased throttle response and improved drivability.

hi, thanks for your information. a friend him the 55K air box had mounted, has reported to me that none more originates power ? I would like to modify mine original air box, the lid a little higher. then an additional opening (membrane) like in the CLK350 with Sortpackage ex works obstructs. I have added 2 pictures to you, however, the air box is varnishes. greets Udo
