Does anyone know more details, specifically, about this air baffle and what it's function is? Is it just to dampen the noise of the intake? Are we sure it's ok to just cap off?

Anyone have a video or sound clip of their bms intake on a M340i they can share please?

And it sounds like this is the only intake you can buy other than the k&n filter.. Can someone please confirm this?

Seems like it for now at least. Sounds aren't that much louder. Definitely noticeable tho. If you like the sound of the intake pulling air then maybe wait for a full kit that replaces the whole intake and pipe. Stock pipe is very restrictive.

I had Injen use my car last week so they can scan the engine bay and make the new heat shield for the intake and housing for evolution intake. They said they dyno'd the car with the short ram intake and the car now pushes 381 hp and 386 hp to the wheels. The evolution intake wasn't tested yet, but they used the short ram they have for supras and it looks nice!

Hey, I still haven't gotten the new intake yet, this pandemic has slowed everything down, they're waiting for the heat shield to be manufactured. Can't wait to see the gain with my new Catted DP 🤗

So I plugged the intake side baffle/resonator and put in a BMC red panel air filter. At WOT it sounds like a damn vacuum on high. Sucking in air super loudly, like equally as loud or louder than my MPE. I may take it off so I can hear the exhaust more. ASD is off.

Looking to get a CAI but I keep reading different reviews about MST, BMS & Dinan, I'm looking to get one where you can hear the turbos and the woosh sound, which one do you guys recommend? If you have a video or sound clip with any of these CAI can you please post it?

I have Dinan installed. I went with it more for the CF bling under the hood than anything else. It does allow you to hear the good turbo noises as well, which is a nice perk. It is not too loud in cabin where it could be annoying, but when you WOT you can definitely hear the spool

All three provide a good sound, it's not too loud which is a good thing for most people.

If you expect to hear the sound over your radio, you need to get an exhaust not an intake
