Question about intake.

kevinkelly520 · 09-11-2009, 11:35 PM

Hello all. I plan to change my oem intake(my car is e90 325i) to Gruppe M, before that I wanna try some other brands, if it is satisfied I can save some money

I'm thinking about the AFE stageII and the Injen SP short ram. Can anybody tell me which one is better because their price are pretty much same. Thank you.

pretty much all are the same.

i'd go with one that has a good heat shield,

gruppe M..em em. that's nice.
with that price, have u considered the bmw performance intake?
oh, i believe the gruppe M is a bit $$$ more than the injen/afe intake -
unless u have a really great hookup.

have you looked into the simota intakes?

Simota and aFe make solid intakes. Been real happy with the aFe setup on my 135.

I don't know about the BWW one. If you don't take out that carbon filter, you aren't going to get much improvement.

I'm happy with my Injen intake from E92 Lighting. I noticed more take off power but it's not a whole lot. The best part is the sound at 4500 RPMs. Videos with just reving doesn't do it justice. It's when you are driving you can really hear it.

We have the aFe versions available:
