I recently picked up a Performance Intake and tried it out for week. As assumed it doesn’t lead to any increase in performance but I did see that there was an increase in the engine note upwards of about 4K rpm. However I’d like to try out the Gruppe M and see how that fairs with the M54 so I’m looking for someone to trade with.
Here’s the thing. When I took it out of the box I was so excited and then really confused. The previous owner did not disclose to me that the guy who had it before him attempted to run a tube from the drivers side of the lower part of the intake down to fog light, a la the dinan intake. It doesn’t interfere with the function of the intake, and I don’t know if it helps or hurts the sound. I wanted to try and patch it up but I just don’t have the time. If I can’t find a Gruppe M in a couple of weeks I’d be looking to sell it for the $500 it cost me. Just want to get my money back.
