Cone Filter - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Terrance28 · 07-30-2009, 02:32 PM

I don't know if this is the right section to post this, if not Mods please move it. Anyway i'm looking for a really good flow wise inverted cone filter roughly the size and look of the BMS cone filter that can fit a 3" pipe. I only need one, if someone can post a link where I can get one that would be really helpful. Thanks

Are you fabricating your own intake? aFe has a variety of filter sizes that would work if you just need the element itself.

No I have the Stett CAI and I think it will work alot better with an inverted cone.

Terrance how do u like your Stett CAI?

Terrance28 · 07-30-2009, 05:12 PM

I love this thing. Although the filter that comes with it is huge, I think it would benefit more from an inverted cone. I found a K&N I could use.

did u cut out the plastic piece at the bottom to get more air

There was a plastic peice that was in front of the little side grill you can remove so airflow is alot better, didn't have to cut anything out.

I have flowed more than 550 rwhp on a similar sized filter. The turbos are extraordinarily small and I think the filter is more than enough.
