I wouldn't buy any products from them after reading all their reviews and experiences from this forum. Looks nice though

Just sharing smth new for n52. At least an intake is less cost than a supercharger that was a lemon
they say their intakes have some kind of flapper/variable valve...

Yes it looks really nice! I agree on that, weight reduction is also a good thing always for our cars.

So Lucy you gots some splane'n to do... Why do we need a variable air intake flap in the air box when the motor has that built into the intake? I'm speaking of us that have a 3 stage intake from the factory. I mean is there something to do with torque...? Even so where is this magic air coming from? I don't see a boot or anything to pull air from the lower inlet like a cold air scoop. The under the hood temps are terrible on the e9x considering all of the pans plates and midgets they use to guard the bottom of the car. As well for what they are going to charge for the intake just buy the euro 330i intake
Btw it looks like that valve is in the middle of the filter? It looks like you can hook a vacuum hose up to it when you zoom in on it.. Does this mean at high RPMs it's ok it suck in dirt? |

Not sure about what triggers the flap function. But it looks like a TB inside the cone... EDIT::: Quote:

You save maybe 3 lbs if that. Leave a gallon of gas out of it and you will save more weight. Sprung weight is a bigger scavenger on run flat BMW's anyway. The rims are made out of omgheavium.

Back to the original topic: Intake looks nice! I actually like that it has a flat finish. How's it sound?

Paus $$$ to ship to the USA then have to pay import duty on it for a POS system that looks cool with a stainless steel mesh pool screen filter.
