So I have a black cloud over my head. The replacement intake upper cover is some how stuck with UPS and the tracking that my dealer is getting is We've left the package in our facility. So choked right now...

Somewhat of an update...
I had previously mentioned the intake is relatively unnoticeable from inside the cabin, which still holds true. However, my wife took off in the BMW and I asked her to 'get on it' so I could hear the exhaust from an outsiders perspective. You could definitely hear the wine/whoosh of the intake from outside. It sounded pretty good actually. |

Has anyone installed the tuning kit himself? The installation manual is very clear, but when I look at the 3 plugs, they look very crowded and I'm not 100% sure what and which way to move without risking braking anything. Those plugs have a very weird shape and look like were made out of rather thin plastic, so might be easy to break.
It would be great if Dinan could make a short video at least of the part where the plugs are removed and then connected back. The rest of hiding/securing all the cables and the box is very straightforward, but I guess it doesn't harm to include that part as well. |

The video paired with the installation guide should give you all the details you really need. The video has a hard time with closeup shots whereas the install guide has photos for those problem parts. Last edited by Dinan_Engineering; 06-01-2015 at 08:10 AM.. |

They probably dont. Do you have someone locally that has one?

I don't remember where I saw it, but I believe that Dinan recommends using the stock lower half of the air box. This is to create as much of a vacuum as possible since the kit even comes with some rubber to try to seal the seams of the lower and upper half.
