Product Detail

Let your engine breathe better by replacing your boring factory air filter with our K&N Intake! Replacing your BMW's intake is a crucial component to change with modifying your BMW with performance in mind. It is a great compliment to an exhaust system, but will also improve your car's performance on its own. Performance gains vary from vehicle to vehicle but a noticeable audible “growl” by the intakes’ open concept is evident as well as the smoother acceleration across the power band.

About the K&N BMW Intakes
The Generation II FIPK® is K&N's ultimate performance product, designed to increase power by as much as 10%. Most FIPK's are street legal in all 50 US states and come with a Million Mile Limited Warranty. K&N intake systems replace your vehicle's restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing. K&N intakes are designed to dramatically reduce intake restriction as they smooth and straighten air flow. This allows your vehicle's engine to inhale a larger volume of air than the OEM air filter assembly. More air means more usable power and acceleration throughout the engine's RPM range. The filters on these kits are washable and reusable. Most of our intake kits are relatively easy to install using tools commonly available.

Which Series Will I Recieve?
K&N provides a 57-Series and 63-Series intake for each BMW 3 Series model. Due to varying stock conditions, when you order, we will ship out whichever intake will allow us to get it to you the fastest. These intakes are identical
with the same HP gains, specs, and price. Therefore, we have combined them here into this one product to eliminate confusion.

NOTE: All K&N Intakes are Carb Exempt.

“We used what BMW designed and made the intake better,” said K&N Performance Kit Manager Bert Heck. “We incorporated the factory fresh air inlet for more power.”

  Awesome intake! March, 2010
Reviewer: Sumith B. From PA US
I just had this installed today on my 01' 325xi and am really happy with it. First of all, it got delivered the following day because it got shipped just 7 miles from me(PA)! The sound is beastly and slightly improved acceleration. Best intake for an e46. Highly recommend the intake and Modbargains!

  K&N Intake February, 2009
Reviewer: Matthew S. From IL US
I ordered my intake on a Sunday and it came in that Thursday, very fast shipping. Installation takes some patience. Tech support was great, helped me tons when i got to a step i couldn't complete. Sounds amazing on the 330ci, it gives it the head turning sound. Car seems to run much better also. Great intake!

  Impressions October, 2008
Reviewer: kyle k. From CA USA
Recieved this intake very quick from Modbargains, excellent customer service.

The install took 30 minutes and only required basic hand tools. Everything fit perfect without wresting with the car. The only minor haggle was getting the MAF into the new KN hole, but a dab of chapstick fixed it in seconds.

I cannot tell if I gained any HP, but I really dont think I lost any either. No idle problems, codes etc. Car sounds stock until you give it heavy throttle (sounds sweet!)

Considering the price I paid, I am very satisfied with the intake.
