| BREATH with the BMS Intake Filter Kit!
Offering 8-15 rear wheel horsepower
gain, the BMS filter replaces your restrictive factory airbox
assembly with a custom K&N brand filter. Features ~20% more
filter surface area and much better sound than the factory airbox,
and is designed to take full advantage of the factory cold air inlet.
Fits BMW 135 / 335 / 535 from 2008-2010. Safe for use with the March 2008 and later v81
ECU!
What is an
air intake?
Every vehicle
is equipped with an air intake. There is a world of a difference between
an aftermarket and OEM intake. Aftermarket intakes replaces the OEM
intake by a metal pipe with an air filter at the end. This creates a
performance boost due to its increased air volume intake. Many speculate
the amount of performance benefits that it provides, but depending on
how much the OEM intake restricted air flow the aftermarket will provide
performance enhancement accordingly. There is a debate between cold air
and short ram intakes. Many prefer cold air intakes due to its higher
increase in performance, but this risks the chance of hydro-locking.
Hydro-locking is when the air intake inducts water instead of air
causing the vehicle to shut down, but in horrid cases to permanently
destroy the engine. Short ram intakes on the other hand do not risk the
chance of destroying the engine because it intake is within the engine
bay. Many debate the performance benefits for each, but there is no
conclusive data as to which is better.
