Intake
Thinking of doing a custom intake. One of the reasons is to get the supercharger whine louder
Something along these line https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...black-e55.html..
What do you guys think?? Also what kind of tubing is this, and where would I be able to get it??

If you guys want that style of intake. I'll make it for you. It would take more than a day to make that style of intake. I plan on bringing my own intake system to the market made out of carbon fiber. However, I understand C/F can get pricey. So why not have a more affordable option. However i think it will suck in some hot air. PM me let me know if there is an interest. I can have it power coated, or polished. Let me know.

Exactly. We do plan on making a bunch of C/F stuff very soon. In fact I was in a meeting for 2 hours today working on a C/F project for Mercedes. However the price does get up there when it comes to C/F.. So, it would be nice to make something respectable for the guys who just don't feel comfortable spending the big bucks for C/F.

Sorry im on my cell and its a pain to pm back.my guy charges about 150 to install a pulley depending on how long it takes to get it on.
My evotech took legit 40 min of me and him switching off and taking breaks because it was such a tight fit.At one point I said screw it and throw the vrp on there.
But we finally got it on snug and it has ZERO wobble lol thank god
