Your Mercedes-AMG E63, E63S, GT63, GT63S or GLE63S deserves better than a flimsy plastic box straight from the factory. It ENDURA Air Intake System is the most complete intake upgrade that you for the M177 4.0T V8 you can buy a biturbo. Two aluminum housings with black powder coating, dual high-flow filters, transparent acrylic panels so everyone can see what's under that hood, and an instant 12 to 20 hp extra without even touching the ECU. This is the upgrade your AMG should have had from the factory.
Many intake kits for the M177 use rotomolded plastic housings, functional but prone to deformation due to the high engine temperatures of a biturbo V8. At ENDURA, we deliberately chose aluminum housings with a black powder coating, a material that withstands heat, retains its shape, and looks just as sharp after thousands of kilometers as it did on day one. When you open the hood, you immediately see those robust red high-flow filters sitting behind the transparent acrylic plates. That is the difference.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why aluminum housings and not plastic like in other kits?
Many intake kits use rotomolded plastic housings, which are functional but prone to deformation due to the high engine temperatures of a biturbo V8. At ENDURA, we deliberately chose aluminum with a black powder coating, a material that withstands heat, retains its shape, and looks just as sharp after thousands of kilometers as it did on day one.
What are those transparent plates?
They're included for a reason. The transparent acrylic plates fit as lids on the aluminum housings, ensuring the red high-flow filters always remain visible when you open the hood. Motor porn at its best.
Is extra tuning required after installation?
No. Without modifications, the peak power gains vary from 12 to 20 hp, depending on fuel and altitude. With a tune, you will naturally get even more out of it.
Is this system a direct replacement for the OEM system?
Yes. The ENDURA Air Intake System replaces the entire original intake system and fits exactly into the original position, no hassle, no modifications.
