Stock air box with a drop in K&N.
There is really no power to be had with an intake on the M42/M44. __________________

you could get a Dinan, they have the air filter mounted high enough to not get wet, they're discontinued and pretty rare though you could also get the cold air intake from cosmoracing.com and modify it like this: http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=14920 the end result is pretty similar to the Dinan intake | | | | | 11-29-2011, 12:45 AM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: MD/PA/DC Posts: 1,629 |

electric supercharger: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Electric-Sup...item23032252f8 Seriously though, everyone knows CAI's improve fuel economy and net HUGE HP gains on these cars  | | | | | 11-29-2011, 02:42 AM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2010 Location: Potomac Falls VA DMV Posts: 1,794 |
Woah Jess. If be careful posting that. That supercharger could cause serious gain in hp and some one could lose control. __________________
