the dp gave you :thumbs:

When i get time bud. Prob around 10wkw.
Problem is a did not dyno just JB so wont know exact gains.

Put it in map 0 to see the gain of the DP.

Never thought of that Sherwin :coolShake:

Been looking for an intake for the M135i for about 2 weeks. Looked at BMS intakes but no stock available.

Did some more research and found Injen make intakes for the M135i.

Managed to source one that is in good condition. :coolShake:

I also got my JB4 cable so i can play around with stuff on the laptop :cartel:

Collected both last night :rollsmile:

hey bud that looks great ! but won't the car get heat soak quicker ? i was talking to someone and he said just using a better quality air filter would be better ,he says car gains sound but not performance with intake :coolShake:

I dont race so i im not worried about heat soak. Intakes allow more airflow irrespective, so more air equal gain. Might not be much but the sound factor for me is tops. Anyway the ram tube from the front of the car still get used in this setup. These guys do testing so they wouldn't sell something that does not work :coolShake: At a later stage i could do heat powdercoating for the heat issue also.

BMS, Injen, AFE etc... all give about a min of 10hp gain. Even if its half that its still a gain :coolShake:


If i find it does not work well enough il get the AFE intake(cr@p expensive but a sealed intake). BMS is on PAR with what i got now from what i have read.

If it sounds good that's perfect. Loud and proud

You dont suffer heat soak on your BMS do you G?
Injen sits slightly further away from the motor then the BMS as you to remove the whole airbox.
