BMS intake vs OEM intake with ER Downpipe in cabin video

As the title states, basic in cabin comparison of the newly released BMS intake vs OEM with the ER down pipe.

Install is a piece of cake, very good quality product, no complaints what so ever.

Nice addition, after spending some more time in my car today it's a subtle touch. With music and ventilation on it's a lot less noticeable.

I think it livens the cars sound nicely. I used to have a G37S so it had a much more noticeable and present tone, the VQ engines burble is irreplaceable but now at least I feel like my N55 has somewhat of a distinct sound and character.

Intakes have little to no effect on exhaust tone what so ever. To achieve that I'd recommend you get either down pipes or high flow cats.
