This dry carbon cold air intake kit is custom built for Mercedes M178 4.0T twin-turbo engine for C190 AMG GT / GTR / GTC performance sports car. The stock intake of M178 is constrained by compact sports car engine bay. Under heavy load, hot air inside engine bay can be drawn into intake tract, rising intake temperature and triggering turbo heat protection to limit power output. Our prepreg dry carbon intake features dual cold air guide duct to draw cool air from front bumper and block heavy thermal radiation. Enlarged intake tube and chamber reduce air restriction and boost airflow, improve twin turbo spool performance and sustain power output. It delivers deep and distinctive twin-turbo induction sound under acceleration. Direct bolt-on replacement, all OEM sensor and vacuum line mounting points preserved. No cutting required, works without ECU tuning. Maximum performance gain is achievable with professional ECU remap.

1.Prepreg dry carbon one-piece housing, lightweight with ultra-high rigidity. Excellent thermal insulation reduces heat soak, stabilizes intake temperature under high RPM and track driving, prevents M178 heat-related power derate.
2.Custom wide intake runner reduces air restriction and improves airflow, optimizes synchronous twin-turbo spool for sharper throttle response and stronger sustained track power.
3.Reusable high-flow air filter balances filtration and maximum airflow, washable for repeated use and lowers maintenance cost for track enthusiasts.
4.Sports car dedicated cold air isolation duct bypasses engine heat zone, consistently supplies cool ambient air for long-time heavy-load driving on track or mountain roads.
5.Vehicle-specific scanned moulding for C190 chassis, perfect fit within tight engine bay. All OEM mounting points for sensors and vacuum hoses reserved, plug & play bolt-on installation, no modification to stock bodywork.
6.Premium visible woven carbon finish upgrades engine bay aesthetics. Deep and rich turbo intake sound under acceleration, balances track performance and supercar modification style.
