Looking for a used air intake setup for a 2011 N55 335i. Could anybody point me in the right direction. Couldn't find any in the classifieds. Thank you

Intakes do nothing for a N55 unless you want the added sound. If you just want the sound get the BMS filter.

It claims to add 10hp? But how much is a BMS filter?

I've got the Injen intake and love the sound it makes!

Technically, they're better for less restriction on a upgraded turbo(s).

I just picked up the bms intake for my 335ix coupe Msport. Contact mike@n54tuning for awesome deals.

I didn't know there were even any cold air intakes for the n54/n55.... I believe there are only short ram intakes as there's no room to route the piping for a CAI.

Anyways as others have said bms!

Good timing. I just removed my Injen CAI and went back to stock and may just use a K&D, go with BMS or leave it stock.

It's black, I bought it in January 2015 and installed it shortly after and it's run less than 4k miles as my car is not a DD. I have the receipt, shipping docs and instructions too.

Shoot me a PM with an offer.

+1 Love my injen intake I switched from a bms intake , I feel the difference to be honest. I just hate how it has bad clearance, I had it installed by a great shop and one the first hood close it scratched and even put a den into the intake piping

That has been proven to be a myth.

Intake will add around 10 whp up top on an FBO car. Car needs to have tune + downpipes in order to see gains

Possibly over stock, but a drop in filter will have the same minimal gains.

Not with FBO. Unless you have a dyno that proves otherwise

[snaimpally]

In the grand scheme of things, an intake provides nominal gains. You can get similar gains just by using a more free flowing drop in filter:

Harold has posted the results of this filter vs the OE filter on the forum - do a search.
A tune will give you much more significant gains.
