Maxiumum Flow Pro5R Filter
This intake kit replaces your restrictive factory air box. It features a 3-angle aluminum velocity stack adapter, 16-gauge powder-coated steel heat shield, trim sealed to seal out hot engine air, and a custom aFe brand cotton filter.
This version uses aFe's highest flowing filter media, which uses a lightly oil gauze to filter out dirt and particulates, while allowing more air to flow to the intake. For the best flowing filter, with the best performance gain, we always recommend this standard aFe filter media (often called "Pro5R ", which has a blue pre-oiled filter media). We also carry this filter in the "ProDry" grey filter media, which is oil-free for only slightly less performance and no maintenance.
By removing your stock intake air box, you are removing the most restrictive portion of your intake system, increasing both horse power and torque, improving acceleration as well as throttle response.
For the maximum benefit in performance, we recommend upgrading your engine software with the Shark Injector (Click here for more info on the Shark Injector performance software.)
This aFe intake fits the following BMWs:
1999-2000 E46 3 series: BMW 323i 323ci 328i 328ci
2001-2006 E46 3 series: 325i 325ci 325xi + Wagon & Convertible models with M54 engine

Want an extra layer of defense? Add a pre-filter to prevent water, mud and sand from congesting your air intake system. This simple upgrade slides over the aFe filter of this intake kit, much like a sock, giving you an extra layer of defense, and extending the cleaning interval of your aFe intake's filter element. Best of all, using the Pre-Filter does not significantly diminish your air filter’s performance—the smooth rush of oxygen keeps rolling right into your engine.

| aFe SuperStock Intake - E46 M3 (Filter, Intake Scoops & Restore Kit) - Pro5R
(more info) |
Maxiumum Flow Pro5R Filter
Increase your M3's intake flow by 24%, for a gain of 8.8 horsepower and 10 lb/ft of torque to the wheels, by upgrading your E46 M3's stock paper intake filter with an aFe High Performance airfilter and the Dynamic Air Scoops (D.A.S.) which install behind the front grills of your M3 to direct more cool air to the intake. The air scoops are a direct fit for the E46 M3, installs simply and easily using common tools (instruction included), and maintains the stock air box for a "stealth" install. Both the air scoops and the filter work in tandem; The high efficiency aFe air filter reduces restriction through the filter, while the Dynamic Air Scoops direct more of the fresh/cool air coming into the nose grills into the intake. More cool air, less restriction, and more precious power.
This kit includes 1 stock-replacement air filter element, 1 - dynamic air scoop, as well as filter restore kit for cleaning and reconditioning the re-useable filter element (a $12.49 value!).

The Silver Bullet throttle body spacer creates turbulence in the air flow just prior to entry into the engine increasing horsepower, torque and improving throttle response. In recent dyno testing by aFe, this throttle body spacer produced +10hp and +14lbs. x ft. torque . The Silver Bullet throttle body spacers are constructed out of durable T-6061 billet aluminum and using a unique serrated/helix entry to create turbulence at the manifold while eliminating the annoying whistle found in other helix only throttle spacers. Great power per dollar performance.

TMS SPEED World Challenge racing team incorporates the M50 throttle body to the E46 325 intake. The reasoning for this is simple. It allows us to use a mechanically operated M50 throttle body instead of the M54 drive by wire throttle body used on E46 motors. The advantage of this is that we can easily use aftermarket management systems (i.e. Motec). The plate mounts flush with 4 flat head M6 allen bolts, and 4 M6 hex head bolts directly between the intake and throttle body and is SCCA legal.
