Is upgrading to a CSL airbox even worth it? So much money... and what are the gains?Quote:

Still....not worth the money since you will spend north of $4k for the airbox for minimal performance gain....if I'm going to plunk that type of cash then I will get the VT550 kit instead. :thumbsup
Solid plan Charlie.
I've looked those kits over and would love one as well but likely just the basic VT445 kit (or maybe VT455 since it's literally only $500 more for 50 ft/lbs more torque). Even on the highway doing a 3rd gear pull I don't get very far because the car is so damn quick. On paper the E46 M looks average as far as power numbers but IRL it is a totally different story.
What are planning on upgrading your clutch to? Flywheel as well?
def SC LooooONNnnGGG before airbox - good thinking sir
Tonight I made arrangements to obtain an OEM CSL diffuser panel from the same source as my OEM CSL door panels....:biggrin
More "CSL" love being aimed towards my ///M!
