This GB is officially closed!!!
This is brand new release from AFE.
Having gone through the pain of designing a true dual filter cold intake for our project 335i using ITG Maxogen cone filters, we know this new AFE intake is truely a great design. And something we would not hesitate to install on our project 335i.
As soon as AFE send us one, we will have a third party dyno numbers for the community. Hopefully on a stock car and tuned.
Let us start a list here for those interested. More people the better the discount.
I will PM each person on the list the special pricing.
Here is the original product release thread by "buttered popcorn"
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=160522
Please indicate if you prefer the Pro-Dry S verion(dry) for $464.71 or the other style(oiled) systems for $469.41 retail. As we get a little closer to the target number of people we will have a better idea on pricing and will PM your individually.
If you were wondering which filter is better, the answer is the Pro-Dry!
Benefits of the Pro-Dry filter:
advanced FLOW engineering offers you a better choice of oil-free filters: New Pro Dry S synthetic dry-media filters. Pro Dry S filters use a revolutionary two-ply synthetic material that is functionally superior to traditional paper media and single-ply synthetic, and easy to service. Pro Dry S dry-media filters increase airflow providing improved horsepower, torque, and fuel economy with 99.4%* filtration efficiency. Perhaps the greatest benefit of new Pro Dry S filters is the convenience of servicing these oil-free filters. To clean a Pro Dry S filter lightly tap it on the ground, vacuum it, or wash with soap and water. Solvents and oiling are not necessary. Pro Dry S dry-media filters by aFe are now available on all of our popular air intake systems for gas and diesel trucks, SUVs, and cars. Replacement Pro Dry S filters for all air intake systems are also available and sold individually.
