Hey folks, I want to change some things in my 435i and I want to know your opinion.
1 intake - does it worth to take eventuri or injen is fine too?
2. Intercooler I found an manufacturer in my country (very good quality)
3. Charge pipe ? Doesn’t have a pick yet ( i don’t want to invest pointlessly)
4. Sparks and coils - also don’t have choice
The whole exhaust has been done, and I’m ruining custom map 360 hp

Thanks for advice

So what exactly is your question?

1. For performance, keep a stock intake and get a drop-in filter. For noise, add whatever aftermarket you want (search on forum for reviews/opinions).

2. No question here? IC is a must for a tuned car.

3. Charge pipe is highest priority item as stock one will fail even on a stock car. Surprised your's hasn't blown if you are tuned.

4. Replace coils as needed. Spark plugs every 30k or so once tuned. Stock or NGK; do some research.

No.

I have the scoop though, and it looks nice with my Dinan Intake.

For vanity it's top notch, as for performance... performs just as well as Injen.
Looks very nice but 900-1500 is a hard pill to swallow for the common folks just for vanity.

I’m not a fan of any open intake.

I want to go for 440hp so that’s the main point of questions, like I don’t to get something that I won’t be able to use in their max of performance.

440whp? You are going to need a lot more than what you listed for that; e.g., turbo and fueling upgrade + FBO.

1- Depends on what you are looking for. Eventuri is the best looking intake hands down. If your main concern is power and sound. Injen is fine too

2- What the question?

3- Active Autowerke, VRSF or Evolution Racewerks are all great options

4- no question here either

People run stock intake with drop in filter over 500 whp. Intake is purely for sound, there is some benefit at higher levels of boost on an upgraded turbo but for your goals, it would mainly be sound and looks.

2. Intercooler I found an manufacturer in my country (very good quality)

yes yes you need this
3. Charge pipe ? Doesn’t have a pick yet ( i don’t want to invest pointlessly)

yes yes

I change mine every 15-20k

You aren't investing in anything by the way! This sh*t loses value the day you buy it, just enjoy the process and do what you want in the end. A higher cost intake in my opinion isn't worth it but to others, they may like the visual appeal.

Thanks for advice

see above.

Intake doesn't net you any performance gains, just noise and looks. Can't beat the Eventuri on looks, and that's why it's the most expensive intake for the N55. It won't give you any more performance gains than a used injen intake. For actual gains over stock, get a DRY filter for your stock intake box.

Intakes are like rims: Jewelry form your car!!!

Unless it's diamonds or gold, it's not an investment.

I got my Eventuri intake for my 435i last week, I am truly in love this the sound you can hear it subtle from the inside of the car and outside it sounds like in the video. Performance-wise the difference is not noticeable.

[Jeff@TopGearSolutions]

HP per Dollar it's not worth it but it's definitely a nice looking intake!
