Large DISA is broken. Need a new one. Bummer but it's the price you pay buying used parts on the internet...

58290 miles, oil and filter change.
New intake in. Changes you ask ?
More noise, better response. More power? Yep.
Let me get more miles on it. Could all be placebo.

Actually, I think the response is better at lower RMP, so more pick up it seems.
I can't really be sure that I feel that much more power across the RMPs.
Now, there is no tune on the car, just more air and more gas going in.
I hear a difference but I am not floored by the gains.
Did some more driving, backwoods twisties spirited driving around here. Yes, I feel it, it is a substantial increase in power. Keeping it in 4k rmp range, it has a serious increase in pickup. The issue I think I have is that without the tune, the increases in power are sometimes smooth, sometimes abrupt (think turbo-like) and sometimes, just not there. So I think that the computer is adjusting and learning (this is what the guy at the shop who did the install told me). It is not learning too well it seems, I have driven over 300 miles with it (and a smile on my face) and the output can sometimes be erratic (makes it fun but could be dangerous in the rain I assume).
I will wait another weekend or so and see if a tune might be recommended to smooth the power delivery a bit.
Need tune from a 330i for now.
I am happy with this purchase/ mod.
That sounds good. I never considered a tune for my e90 330i. I was happy with it “as is”.
Thanks for the report. I wonder how much HP it is making now. I used to wonder why the 3L N52 came with everything from 215hp to 272hp. If the intake + tune alone can turn the 215hp version into something in the 270 range, that would be a game changer for cars like the 128i.
+1 with Fredo on the "happy as is" Maybe add very happy....Quote:

Not sure * tune would give you more., next step would be turbos like the 335i with 305 HP.Quote:
