BMS intake cold start

1ndonlySG · 04-15-2014, 01:52 AM

Hey guys, so I had my intake on my car for about 3k miles. Recently, everytime I turn on my car when it's cold, you can hear my engine but the intake is louder and sounds like spoiling, is this a normal thing or does this mean I have a air leak? Let me know thank you!!

Nope it's an open air intake dude- you're going to hear the spooling and blow off much louder than the OEM closed box.

Ok cool thanks guys!

You bet! N54 or N55? I assume since you're posting in the N55 section you have an N55. If so that "blow off" sound will be much more pronounced on our engines.
