New intake?
I saw this while browsing ecs and it popped up as a new item. It won't fit for my car but I thought it'd be pretty cool for you 335i guys http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E90-335....0L/ES2713282/
What do you guys think? Are there better ones out there?

My .02 is that if you want carbon fiber, that's your pick. If you could care less, like myself, and just want an intake, pick a DCI. |

Looks like a nice kit, but I wouldn’t pay $699.95 (+tax?) for only a 18 rwhp gain. Not going to make much of a big difference in acceleration time.
Adding a FMIC, is more HP value for the money.

This is the cheapest carbon fiber unit on the market that I'm aware of, others are over 1k. If you want an intake that looks great, this is your choice. |

$699.95 is a lot of money for just a cosmetic look which nobody is typically going to see from the outside, until the hood is open, but hey it’s your car and it's a free country. If one can afford it, do what makes you happy.

It is a really good looking product. Keep in mind, it will not give you more gains than any other intake on the market.
If you do not mind spending that much for an intake, go for it

How much would it add to acceleration times? 0-60 0-100 etc..
