This is a lightly used GruppeM Carbon Fiber intake for sale by owner. In box, ready for shipment. The intake needs no introduction but I will post my video of it and the car in action for reference and buyer motivation.

No scratches, blemishes, etc. Filter is in great shape. I had this intake off the car for longer than it was ever utilized installed. Maybe 7k miles? Maybe. Selling because no longer have vehicle to apply it to.

Comes with mounting bracket as well.

Firm at $400 plus shipping. Available for local pickup in Reston or Arlington, VA.

Thanks,
Daniel

GLWS!

For any potential buyers: this is a great sounding intake (videos don't do it justice), and $400 + shipping is a good price. Plus the seller's an OK guy.

If you want to sell that mounting bracket separately, let me know...

I am in the same boat. Looking for a spare bracket. BTW, does anyone know where to buy a replacement for the rubber guard piece?

Quick q:

YouTube videos confirm the sound is incredible, but have you noticed any difference in throttle response or rev "hang" when driving the car with this intake?

I'm wondering because I've driven a car with a dinan intake and directly compared it to my zhp.. rev-matching seemed different and the throttle response felt a bit more delayed for some reason. I believed it to be attributed to the intake.

If there is, I haven't noticed. Then again I went from the BMW Performance intake to the GruppeM intake.

The car you drove with the Dinan intake, was it a ZHP or a standard 330i? I've noticed that my sister's 330Xi M-sport revs more freely than my ZHP or my father's because rev matching is very different between the ZHPs and her car.

It was a standard 330... it was actually a bit less enjoyable to rev match and shift due to the delay, which is why I was wondering.

The lack of that effect for the gruppeM is good to hear though... I really want this I just have to come to grips with the impending $400 absence in my bank account lol [emoji102]

Always a tough decision. Ramen-diet for a hot minute and you'll be in intake heaven.
