    agreed. Ive had numerous e36s and had power losses in them with various induction kits compared to standard airbox. Noticable gain in an e36 ive loan of with the green filter compared to standard
    Would you really get much power loss ?

    I've one fitted with heat shield on the 328, nothing scientific but i wouldnt say ive experienced any power loss. But i did install it with my m fiddy manifold

    It sounds great but you'll be kidding youself if you think it will give you any noticeable power gains

    What ever you choose just be sure to avoid heat soak and air leaks. Also ITB's or go home!

    Hi Gar,

    There are a few options out there for air filters and inductions kits, I use (and always have used) GREEN Performance air filters for direct replacement in the factory air box. I have found them to be more free flowing that K&N and there is a notable difference in throttle response. Induction kit wise there are a few options like the Simota carbon fibre encased induction kit, the Dbilas flow master and then the options of building your own with GREEN Performance.

    I have driven a few cars with the Simota kits and sold a few of these I have to say they sound intoxicating and certainly look the part in the engine bay. They have a carbon fibre heat shield around them and sit very close to the back of the passenger headlamp reducing the amount of heat soak with the likes of open filters. PM me your email address if any of the above are of interest and I can send images and pricing etc.

    Hope this helps,

    Cab
