Our Performance CSL Air Filters start with a multi-layer synthetic dry cotton construction that contains millions of smaller fibers to provide superior filtration and performance over the OEM filter. Precisely manufactured for a secure fitment to ensure all the air entering your motor is properly filtered. With the CSL E46 only being offered in Europe, the OEM air filters are produced in much lower quantities making them harder to obtain and drive up the price. Turners solution is a price effective solution that offers premium filtration with increased flow, extended service interval and lifespan.

Having a clean air filter ensures your engine is running at its best efficiency! Proper air flow will help your engine breathe, get the best fuel economy and allow full power throughout the power band. Get the most out of your CSL intake with a new Synthetic High Flow Air Filter. These filters can be cleaned and reused for an extended service life.

Oiled versus Dry Filters:

Although both options will keep the air to your engine clean and improve airflow, there are a few differences to consider when choosing the best filter for you. Oiled filters allow better airflow than dry filters, however they require more maintenance. Oiled filters will likely get dirty faster, needing to be cleaned more regularly. When cleaning an oiled filter, it is necessary to oil them with filter oil afterwards.
Dry filters offer slightly lower airflow but are easier to maintain while still out performing the OE paper filter. Dry filters can be washed with warm soapy water. There is no oiling necessary afterwards.
Both dry and oiled filters flow better than stock and can be reused.
Product Features:

Direct Replacement for OEM filter

How to service an oiled air filter:

Replace the Achilles heel of your factory cooling system with a stout and reliable mechanical thermostat setup.

The factory E46 thermostat housing is a combined unit featuring a plastic housing and a built in thermostat that you cannot replace separately. These plastic all-in-one units are commonly know to crack or fail causing a headache, a trip on the tow truck and possible damage to your engine.

Taking cues from the reliable M50 thermostat setup we designed a an assembly that not only converts your plastic housing into a billet aluminum unit but also swaps out the integrated thermostat for a separate replaceable thermostat. The ability to swap out thermostats separately from the whole housing opens up doors to changing thermostats to different temperature ratings based on your application while also providing lower maintenance costs. No longer do you have to replace the whole housing but just the thermostat itself.

The billet housing is designed to be utilized with E46 M3 upper and lower radiator hoses and also features -16 ORB connections for custom radiator hoses. A major upgrade from the factory and aftermarket plastic units. Our thermostat housing kit can be used by the savvy daily driver or the track hero who wants to ensure the durability of their cooling system.

Key benefits:

Uses M50/S50 mechanical thermostat for increased reliability
Option to use aftermarket colder thermostats if desired
Thermostat can be replaced separately for lower maintenance cost
Barbed hose connections for use with E46 M3 hoses or built in -16 ORB connections for custom radiator hoses
Design:

Machined out of a single piece of billet 6061 aluminum, this thermostat housing will withstand higher prolonged temperatures and abuse for performance applications
Black anodized with engraved Turner logo on the front to match the Turner Motorsports Power Steering Reservoir
