PTG Carbon Fiber Airbox Release

Here at Premier Tuning Group, we are always trying to raise the bar. After years of testing and development, we are proud to release the latest addition to our M177.2 parts lineup, the PTG M177.2 Carbon Fiber Airbox System.

This airbox system is the first and only panel style filter cold-air system and it truly separates itself from the rest. It is also the only airbox system to see positive pressures within the airbox even at high power levels. Our engineering team has also placed the factory barometric pressure sensors in a position that actually allows tuners to read and use airbox sensor data to properly tune your car.

Why is this important? Because the new panel filter is placed facing the front of the car, there is a clear path to the turbochargers which is a major contributor to why this system works so well.

Constructed of 100% prepreg carbon fiber and billet aluminum, our airbox utilizes one large panel filter using both factory inlets and the additional ability to open a center inlet for more airflow and a standard 3 inch inlet for use with PTG turbos or stock turbos. Paired with our Turbocharger Upgrades, Motorsport Cooling System, and other complimentary parts, you can easily run 9's in the quarter mile.







For more information on our W213 E63/E63S packages, please contact us anytime.

MSRP $2,999.99

So PTG, any numbers on this intake vs stock? Also, I assume that the engine cover has to be removed? Looks very nice!

we left the cover off for photos but some small trimming of the under paneling and it fits easily.

We will be posting numbers very soon. We have a wide range of cars running these with great results. Several 9 second cars with complimenting mods.

And group purchase price?
I want this but not so sure there will be much of a gain over my Blackboost intake. But for the right price, I'll jump on it.

So due to a bit of a supply issue, I actually have these figures as before and after.
There was a month between fitting them and things have got a lot colder here in NYC, I've also had to switch to my winters so I can get the summers freshened up. Just for reference, the Rotiforms are 21" vs 20" standard.

Prior to intake run was in the mid 70's f
The intake run was mid 50's f.

Mods:
ECC Stage 2
ECC TPC
ECC CPC
Black boost DP
PTG Intake

Before intake: 677.14 WHP
After intake: 698.89 WHP

Appreciate the data point but that's quite a big temperature difference as well. Was the before with stock filters or aftermarket filters?

That is a healthy gain and mostly on the top end too! Like these intakes are supposed to do, peak at 104mph vs 109mph

Thanks for posting this! It’s always better when a client posts their independent results. We saw the same gains in our testing and we see even better gains on larger turbos. The best gains are seen on 60-130 times when the ram air effect takes place. 🤠

Still regardless beautiful intake. Is there much more intake sound than stock? Tbh I'm really not looking for more intake sound... I personally would prefer not to hear the intake sound haha...

A little more than stock, but not obnoxious.

Guaranteed 20hp gain at the wheels and a couple tenths shaved off your 60-130 or your money back. This intake works.
