Will the broken pipe affect hose placement?
Also do you sell Renntech ECU upgrades as well?

It's not broken, that's how it is. Wierd I know. Adam sells just about everything and he's easy to work with.

Fred, that's the way it comes....

Ah, I don't sell Renntech ECU upgrades, only Evotech.

Looking for a new toy.
Adam, does this item do anything for HP, or is it just for looks?

TIA!

No problem mate, just while your at it treat yourself to some Green filters they are relatively in expensive and add 9hp to any SLK55.

Before getting the Renntech airbox make sure it doesnt hit the strut bar as I think the 55BS has one on top of the airbox.

Dont forget to send my regards to Chris and enjoy your new upcoming modifications.

He has a black series though, I thought the intake on those was different. I could be mistaken though, we US folks don't get them.

Also doesn't it have a strut brace? Would that not get in the way?

Thats what I said to BLK SLK, because the Renntech box is fairly larger in height and might get stuck or hard to install.

strut brace
If I remember correctly the strut braces are far enough away from the airbox. I don't believe they would interfere.

Why do people here prefer Green Filters over BMC?

Not sure, I have BMCs. I had Greens in the E55 but they 'melted' inside the airboxes. Several others had the same problem with them. Bad batch maybe?

Interesting. 1 bad batch is enough to insure I never buy them.
BMCs for me, please.

How do you like your Sprint Booster? Is the throttle response much quicker? Worth it? Easy install? Doesn't add any power, just response, right? Saw it on eBay and the CLS forum...
Never driven an SLK55, but my C43 doesn't have the nicest throttle response.
