Selling my BMS F30 N55 intake. Just installed a week ago, but as I DD my car to work in the early morning, I don't think the sound is for me unfortunately. It sounds great and throttle response is definitely improved, I just prefer a quieter intake sound. Would like to get $200 for it shipped. It is effectively brand new, will include all original packaging as well. |

How easy was the install? Was the sound that annoying? I am kind of on the fence of ordering one or not. How much better was the throttle response? Any less turbo lag?

Update: So I went to remove the intake an noticed that the seal connecting the filter to the intake tube had not been secured flush.
Once re-secured, I took the car for a few runs and the sound was noticeably better. I think there was a slight leak in the connection which was causing an abnormally loud intake "whistle", which was the sound that was so outputting. The intake is now behaving correctly, and the sound is outstanding, understated yet still aggressive. So, unfortunately I am not going to be selling this intake given its sound is much more enjoyable when functioning correctly. Sorry to waste anyone's time. |
