You aren’t going to gain anything but noise. If there is a baffle in the oem airbox, remove it. you’ll gain more with an oem de-baffled airbox than you will with a ‘filter on a stick.’ You car is also an auto (smg) right? If so, your already at a disadvantage performance wise. I could think of wayyyyy better ways to spend $ ---

If so, your already at a disadvantage performance wise. I could think of wayyyyy better ways to spend $ Its a automatic with drive sport and manual shift option too. The car def. has some power considering. Im glad it has the 3.0 instead of the 2.5 makes a huge difference. With a intake I can increase gas mileage a little bit and it sounds nice, plus will give me about a 6-7hp increase,or so they say. lol. I do not want to go “ricer” with my nice bimmer. I just want a nice drop, nice wheels, open the engine up a little, I still just want this as my daily, until I get my 2nd car …which I hope should be soon! ---

Tricia, seriously just leave it alone… its a brand new car, it has a warrenty, its baller status as it sits… No need to fuck around with it, wait for your second car to fuck with. ---

That intake manifold swap looks like it will cost $1000+, and will definitely void the warranty. I say go for it. ---

THIS. If you wanted power you should have just went with the 335… Debaffle the airbox. Its a free mod that isn’t going to void your warranty/ waste your $ Just drive it and enjoy it. ---
