Maxiumum Flow Pro5R Filter

This intake kit replaces your restrictive factory air box. It features a 3-angle aluminum velocity stack adapter, 1.6mm 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.

aFe has reported gains as high as 6 hp and 12 lb/ft torque

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:
1999-2006 E46 BMW 323i 323ci 328i 328ci 330i 330ci 330xi
2001-2006 E46 BMW 325i 325ci 325xi - Only with M54 Engine - Not for SULEV M56 engine

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.

This item fits the following BMWs:
