GruppeM Intake for N55

htt760 · 04-26-2011, 10:47 AM

This is not worth it, I have dynoed with a open air box with multiple pulls and there is not a big enough gain for 2.5k..... The gruppe m intakes are good for N/A cars with the design but for turbo cars we just need volume.

All of a sudden the Dinan intake is not so expensive, right? LOL

bigdaddycane · 04-26-2011, 12:27 PM

at least the filter is about the correct size for this engine. The N54 version has a tiny filter in it.

I am sure your own something that has a heavy price tag.

Btw carbon material will naturally be expensive so I dont know why its coming as a suprise.

Because only retarded people would spend that much for such little gains.. :dunno:

Technically you can say the same about people who spend money on MTech parts...

Just cuz you dont want to spend the money on it doesn't make it retarded. I'm sure show cars would buy this just to make their engine bay look nice for a show. Don't make "retarded" statements.

For $2500, that best turn your N55 into a N54
