Thanks TTM python tubes came in!!!

Car is soo close to finally being done,here is what she looks like now.I want to give a shout out to Bruce for getting me these fast.



mods are
renntech airbox K&N filters
carbonio python tubes/engine cover
Eurocharged Heat Exchanger
Kleemann headers with primary cats deleted
and I have 2 pullies that I need to pick figure out what to throw on a renntech 168 or a vrp 175
I also have a stock extra tb that Im going to bore out/grind out to add in the mix.

ECU is going to kleemann for there tuning when I get back from vaca from Miami.

best run on stock pulley was 12.028@118 1.825 60ft and street tires. I tried to get the thing in the 11s but our track prep is horrible and I don't have a fresh set of drag radials to try.This Wed will be my last time taking it to the track with this setup and the only thing Iv added are the python tubes,Im hoping to break into the 11s on stock boost,that was my all time goal with the car.

Thanks alot,I kinda dont like the red renntech stickers either,I want to paint the silver intakes on the engine jet black also.

I paid like 620 shipped for them,kinda expensive but I needed them to complete the whole carbon look lol.

It looks alot better in person,I don't know why it keeps coming out blurry,my cell is supposed to have an 8mp camera on it.

I might sell the whole setup with renntech box,cover,tubes,bored tb and renntech 168mm pulley for like 3500 when Im done with this car and ready to move on.

+1 silver and black. here is mine with the powder coated surge tanks. i had the raised AMG logos hi-polished so they look chrome and i had the bolt heads chromed as well to match looks great )minus the color difference between the carbonio cover and tubes vs the renntech box)

The last set of Python Tubes were sent to Roveron.

The next production run isn't scheduled yet but if we get 5 members we can get next production run set up ASAP!

I will also have (5) M113k air boxes coming first or second week of October and THEY DO FIT THE 82mm TB's!!!

Oh man I didn't even see you posted a thread up! Again, fantastic looking heart! Hopefully we can get ahold of some SICK surge tanks.

Are there any performance gains to be realized with the python tubes or are they strictly cosmetic? Thanks!

You will see an increase in CFM and the air will be much smoother than the stock tubes so you should see a minimal gain but that amount is really predicated on the the TB size.
