DCI or ???

Drippan 335i · 07-17-2016, 07:55 PM

I have done a little bit of searching but I can't find anything that's not several years old. I just bought an '07 335i and am wanting to do some small changes. First I want to let her breath a little better and am considering Burgers DCI. Does anyone have a better suggestion...advice?

I went with BMS DCI no complaints, some others may say AFE or inlets.

I went with BMS Dci aswell and been really happy with it so far

I use the aFe inlets, and Cobb panel filter in the OEM housing. Ram as much cold air in as possible, always a pressurized cool column of air headed in.

It all depends on what brand of oil you're using!

.. now this should be interesting

get a tune first.. Intake is something you want after tuned

I run the BMS because it was cheap. $50 used and easy to find used.

Get a tune. The air filters don't do much other than better intake sound. I run the JB4 + backend flash.

Just wondering, why a tune before intake and not after..? For base log purposes..??

DCI are fine but filters get dirty fast. I would recommend a closed enclosure if you want performance gains. If your just looking to suck in hot air go with DCI, they have a nice sound to them.
