ID N63 Intake Development - Tease.
I'll just leave this here for you guys...
Both sides should be on this week for you guys to tease on. Oh, and it sounds... insane. First time I ever heard a growl and a blow off from this engine. Edit: 4/23/14 Here's the video, keep in mind that only 1 side is installed (pass side). Last edited by Igor_M5; 04-23-2014 at 01:39 PM.. |

Amount of flow to engine vs temperature this has been tested on 335i cars and this kind of set up still made more power. Good job Igor. I'm in for second set.

Applying this to the n63 is just theory though - will be interested to see data backing up gains, glad someone's taking the initiative to do this. |

It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Sergey and I are excited. Even if the IATs increase, this may be offset by better flow and volume considering all turbo cars are intercooled.
At the end of the day, if this yields no power gains (unlikely) and only adds intake and turbo spool sound, I'm game.... |

So given the placement of the cone filter, I'm guessing the stock piping coming from the kidney grills (seen outside of the two strut bars pictured) are no longer used?

Like badblack stated, our cars don't rely on intake air temperature as much. Heat soak shouldn't be an issue... and based on the 6 baseline runs I already did, the car seemed to put down higher numbers as the temperature went up, the minute the car cooled down and we did another run, the numbers slightly decreased.

It will still be used to help divert some air to the cone filter, I'll design a diversion shield that will smoothly help divert any air coming from the piping right into the filter at WOT. Otherwise, when you're coasting... any air pushed into through that piping will simply escape once it reaches the filter unless its being sucked in. |

Also, I'm guessing the OEM plastic cover will no longer fit after installing this intake?

I live 5-10mins from you guys. I would be down for a set
On a side note the filters are located mightly close to the HOTTEST part of the engine bay. I also wonder if there is any chance of the heat doing some damage to the hood without the engine cover/oem intake in place allowing the radiating heat to just travel directly upwards. Alan

I was thinking same thing. Especially if you have aftermarket DP's. No sheild even more heat. Also, dyno numbers will almost for sure look good, but I wonder how it will perform with hood down at full op temp. Hotter air = ecu adjusting and making it slower. dyno will have hood open, and a fan blowing air. I dont know just want to make sure this project goes smooth for you. I know it will see some great numbers on dyno, just by the look of it yyou can just tell. Im just worried about daily driving performance. Nevertheless, your the man.. and I thank you for contributing to this community.
