Hot climate air intake elbow fitted
TBH it wasn't as bad as I expected. Took about 45 mins in total. I decided to take the Dinan Carbon Fibre CAI our in one piece and remove the snorkel. This made is so much easier as you can pull and push from both sides to get it in place and properly on the hanger. Not sure if any difference yet as took it for a quick run to check no codes thrown but all good. Pics below

I also installed this part during the summer. It's hard to be sure, but I believe it made a difference to throttle response.
I also took the snorkel out and wiggled the elbow into place from the back by reaching in from the Air Filter box end. Didn't need to remove the front grill. It's interesting that BMW blocks this intake for cold weather setups. Technically you could probably skip the elbow and just take the cover off for much the same effect. |
