Who has Green Filters installed?

Does anyone have green filters installed in their BENZ, I want to buy Green filters for my ML55 and have looked on the web site of many vendors and I notice that some state that (2) filters required, in the picture the green filter does look a little thin is that the reason for the double filter? When looking at the OEM filter by Mann the filter looks thicker.

hey hanniep, i have a C55 with green filters. We should have the same engine. When i got them, i got two of them, they are put on both sides, not one on top of the other. I looked at K and N but for our cars the green filters are a better remedy. If you have more questions i would suggest contacting EvoSport.com and call mike. And as for whether you should do it or not, i would say go ahead and do it, i enjoyed the difference, slight, but it's there.

Cool, I was a bit confused as to why (2) thanks for clearing that up...I will contact EvoSport, I looked at K&N but inderstand that Green filters are more compatible to the MAS in the MB Vehicles. Much Thanks!

the newer AMGs have a differnet set up then the ML55s... there are two filters on the Cs,CLKs,Gs,SLs,CLs,Es, etc... two smaller filters one on each side of the engine, thats why there are two filters... for us its just one
