bmw n54 DCI QUESTION

[DSC]

guys

wanted an opinion on something .

when going the DCI route , is it a must to use BMS ? I have a friend that has a E92 335i and he used 2 x Simota Cone filters ,(fair enough these are cheap but they seem to be doing the job well ) silicone reducers into a pvc fitting and into the oem pipes .

Is there such a negligible difference between BMS airfilters and others , K+N , BMC , APEXI etc ?

No you don't have to use BMS bud, i have K an N and they work, i guess its down to personal preference and what you can afford.

I made up my own set as well...no significant increase or loss in HP just more woosh sound...

The nice thing about the BMS setup is its completely plug and play.

You could go K&N but you need a flange with varying diameters from the filter to the inlet pipe to make them fit.

By flange you meaning Reducers ?

Yepp the reducers.

I actually fitted a pair of K&N filters yesterday which replaced the BMS DCI's.

Luckily i had aluminium reducers.

Guys


If the filter is a 76mm , what reducer will be needed ? and what diameter piping ( pvc /metal pipe ) to join to oem pipe ?
