    I think the choice of intake is really preference. IMO, I don't believe that there would be any significant performance difference between brands. Dinan, aFe, Racing Dynamics, ect. are all different manufacturers of cold air intakes. Quality and price will be the big variation.

    For software, you can get a performance software setup through several sources. Jim Conforti's Shark is one of the most common. You can get that from several sources online.

    I have AFE....but I really like the BMW Performance ntake as well.

    This ntake is on sale as well, and many have installed them here. Check our product review section....

    This where I got mine. I got the Pro5R, but you will see BMW PI as well. The below link is what ECS has to offer.

    I like the eye candy of my BMW PI, plus I like having BMW parts on the car, but I can't comment on the others.
