This dry carbon cold air intake kit is custom built for Mercedes M256 3.0T inline-six engine for X290 AMG GT50 / GT53 performance coupe. The stock plastic intake box of M256 is limited by compact engine bay with poor thermal insulation. Hot air from engine bay will be sucked in under heavy driving, increasing intake temperature and hurting the efficiency of mechanical supercharger. Our prepreg dry carbon intake adopts dedicated cold air guide duct to draw cool air from front bumper and block thermal radiation. Enlarged intake chamber and tube reduce air restriction and boost airflow, improve supercharger response and unlock smooth linear power of inline-six engine, delivering distinctive supercharger induction sound during acceleration. Direct bolt-on replacement, all OEM sensor and vacuum line mounting points preserved. No cutting required, works without ECU tuning. Maximum performance gain can be achieved with professional ECU remap.

1.Prepreg dry carbon one-piece housing, lightweight with ultra-high rigidity. Outstanding thermal insulation reduces heat soak, stabilizes intake temperature under heavy driving and maintains consistent power output of M256 supercharger.
2.Expanded intake runner design reduces air restriction, increases intake volume and airflow, improves supercharger spool speed for sharper throttle response and smoother full-range power delivery.
3.Reusable high-flow air filter balances reliable filtration and maximum airflow, washable for repeated use and lowers long-term maintenance cost for street and track use.
4.Vehicle-specific cold air isolation duct bypasses engine heat source, consistently supplies cool ambient air to avoid power loss during prolonged aggressive driving.
5.3D scanned moulding exclusively for X290 chassis, perfect fit within compact coupe engine bay. All OEM mounting points for sensors and vacuum hoses reserved, plug & play bolt-on installation, no modification to stock parts.
6.Premium visible woven carbon finish upgrades engine bay aesthetics. Unique supercharger intake sound under acceleration, balances visual styling and performance upgrade.
