Renntech Carbon Fiber Airbox: Is it worth the price?
Thinking of getting the Renntech Carbon Fiber Airbox? Renntech says about 15hp increase, but I believe they typically underestimate? What do other board members think? Is it worth $3800?

I have seen this mod on an SL55 and it seems like crazy money for what you get. I think you and your butt dyno would notice a greater performance gain with a set of $2000.00 Evo rotors.
This would absolutely be the last upgrade I would do on my car. Their are many other mods to consider to improve performance. If you are looking for a bang-for-your-buck mod........................look elsewhere.

honduh, bimmer, bEnz, ferrari and etc
assume it would add few hp.
but dont think its worth the price.
a gruppeM airbox set up for a modena is under 3500.
this thing should be like 1500, and more ppl will buy it.
