Buy from Marco at McKenna Performance and install yourself. Doesn't get any cheaper than that.

I got the intake and pulley from Dinan. You are lucky as there is a sale on at Dinan this month.
I installed the intake myself, pretty simple.

On an otherwise stock car, a tune and intake won't net a lot. You really need to do an x-pipe so see the gains a tune can provide.

It won't pass in CT, my local Dinan dealer confirmed this for me yesterday.
I was also thinking of jumping on the Dinan sale and get the intake (and add the tune later). However, I am a bit worried about the tune affecting my warranty. I track so I was thinking the additional 200 rpm would be helpful and extra airflow might be helpful at higher RPMs. I am on the fence though. I decided against the pulleys. I am worried about the long term effects of underdriving my accessories. My car is my DD. |

Really? Well that sounds like a lot for a pulley in our cars.

Thinking of just adding a drop in filter now since my e90 has a coal liner that restricts more than the e92 m3s...does anyone have pros and cons on adding a afe intake vs just adding a new filter?

+1,
I didn't feel a noticeable difference between MS filter and stock. No noticeable difference between MS filter and AA pulley. Confirmed by 1/4 mile track where I trapped no better than 110mph. Butt dyno and 1/4 mile timeslip showed a good improvement when I switched from MS to AA green filter, AA pulley and Akrapovic Evo exhaust. Trapped 116mph and this was before the 231e software update from dealer. I'm not trying to discount anything but personally, I think those dynos are full of shit. I've seen too many bs dyno sheets here lately. 400 whp with tune and bolt on's? Sure....... Whatever float your boat man but I would take my car to the track and confirm if it is really faster in real life or just on a roller. |
