He really is. Super helpful and down-to-earth. And that's a good idea, the best mod is maintenance! I'd love to know when you get around to installing this setup, though.
Honestly, not really. The only two other videos are by Grant Johnson and BimmerHaus Performance themselves. There's such a scarcity of videos for these intakes!
Smart idea wrapping the charge pipe and good job on the install, if i may suggest I'd keep the intake socks on because u dont want water or moisture being sucked in which is very likely to happen. And the blue plastic behind the intake I would take it off so u can maximize air flow and not being blocked in the back which also keep ur radiator happy behind it. If u haven't id relocate ur temp sensor near the front end so it can match the ambient temp ur intake gets (that is if the sensor sits in the back or u haven't done it.
Thank you, I thought it wouldn't hurt to get it heat wrapped. About the sock, though, I mentioned why I left it off in the video. It's not going to hurt the turbo or engine if water gets in - Dan from BimmerHaus Performance said most of his clients don't run the sock. Besides, like I said in the video, lots of people run meth injection; which is literally dumping icy-cold liquid into the turbo/engine. The filter guard, as well, I mentioned why I'd keep on in the video. It helps direct the air to the intake, as the radiator behind it is huge, and it really isn't stealing the air from it. All sensors have been relocated, too, like I said and showed in the video. I appreciate the comment!
@@MotoRevs just my 2 cents Just people wont be misled and also for you not get confused. watching ur video and commented on rain water and methanol , Rain water will for most part rust out (steel) metal components on ur turbo or where anywhere rain water falls on. it comes in contact with, can affect ur air and fuel mixture, with enough amount of rain water sucked in it is possible that u can hydrolock ur engine Methanol is highly combustible liquid due to its high octane rating thats why people use it it bumps up their octane and cools down the engine. Cheers
Sound Amazing! 👌 Do You Know If Bimmer Haus Ships That Intake To CA? Unfortunately Its Hard To Get Cold Air Intakes Shipped Here Due To Not Being CARB Legal lol
My 535i currently has around 85,000 miles; I'm not sure, I don't believe I'm qualified to tell you that. As I've seen, a lot of N55s can take tuning up to 150k miles, but, like I said, I can't say for sure if you should or shouldn't.
Yes, there are dyno results and proof, as I said in the video. Go over to BimmerHaus Performance's Instagram - he's got the dyno charts and stats there, it's seriously impressive.
That was from another F10 RU-vidr's car - Grant Johnson. They put his car on before and after, with and without the intake, and no tune either run. He's also seen the same results on N55s across different chassis and platforms. It's not a fluke!
