I have a 550i brotha! I traded my 535i back in 2015. Im waiting for BMS to release their prototype intake so I can compare it to badblacks and decide which to purchase along with the JB4 Beta.

If I would be capable of doing this, I would consider this + K&N vs Burger intake.
I removed the blocking cap on my passenger side too. I figured how much turbulence can that cause in exchange for some cool air right over the turbo and better under the hood temps. And if you have an open air filter maybe you'll get a 1CFM bump lol
