Founded in 1999, Advanced Flow Engineering (aFe) produces high flow, high performance air filters & intake systems for BMWs. Each kit offers excellent design and construction, lifetime cleanable cotton filters that breathe easier than paper filters, powder-coated heat shields to block out hot engine air, and measurable performance gains resulting in increased horse power and torque.

aFe Intake Kit - E36 323/325/328/M3, 1992-1999 - Pro5R
(more info)
Maxiumum Flow Pro5R Filter
aFe Magnum FORCE Stage 1 Cold Air Intake System. This intake kit replaces your restrictive factory air box. It features a black composite/molded tube, 16-gauge powder-coated steel heat shield, trim sealed to seal out hot engine air, and a custom aFe brand cotton filter.
aFe has reported gains of up to 25 hp and 25 lb/ft of torque when used on an M3. For maximum benefit, we recommend upgrading your engine software -- a Conforti chip for 1992-1995 or Shark Injector software for 1996-1999 cars.
This aFe intake kit fits all 1992-1999 E36 chassis 3 series 6 cylinder, including:
1992-1995 - BMW 325i, 325is & M3 3.0 liter
1996-1998 - BMW 328i, 328is, 323is and M3 3.2 liter.
1999-1999 - BMW 328is, 323is, and M3 3.2 liter
This kit was specifically designed for use on cars with the stock US headlights.
It is a very tight fit on cars with the Euro type headlights and some modifications may be required.
This version used 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.
 
Simple installation using only basic tools, requiring no drilling or modifications to your BMW.

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. To add the pre-filter, just select the option for the drop-down option below.
