I modded my intake so I can have more turbo noise. Easy DIY of my coming build. Going for the more subtle and stealth build for my 2015 BMW N20.
Tools:
Drill
63mm hole saw
Drill bits
Tin snip
Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy this video.

Would you do this to you car?

@postalpancho Месяц назад

This is quite literally what the aftermarket intakes do for the “modified” intake box. Looks a bit sus but this will save you hundreds.

@off2geo 7 дней назад

not that huge 4" square. Nope.

@Hcarmad 3 месяца назад

I’ve drilled the airbox on nearly every car I’ve owned, best mod for induction noise and you keep the engine bay looking stock 😎

@ItsVannT 3 месяца назад

Yup I for sure prefer the stealth 🥷

@off2geo 7 дней назад

that first single hole would have been enough rather than cutting a huge 4in square.

@ItsVannT 6 дней назад

Yea I went a little overboard 😅but it’s ok I have a replacement in case I need it back to stock

@scottwaligora5655 3 месяца назад

This modification can only be for the attempt of louder noise from under hood. There will be no performance gains, as the holes cut will pull warmer air and/or below atmospheric pressure air into the airbox, which will not burn as hot. Also like one of the members below mentioned, you will want to put some kind of barrier to prevent larger debris from coming into the box.

@postalpancho Месяц назад

Even aftermarket intakes don’t do anything for performance and the aftermarket intakes quite literally do the exact same thing. Lol

🔧🏆👏 This is far better for your engine and operating combustion temperatures than the $300 bolt-on K&N cold (hot, really) air intake people think is wise. One suggestion for others doing this: I’d Gorilla glue some window screen inside the air box over the holes and openings you drilled. It will stop whatever road debris and grit that gets in before it hits the air filter.

@ItsVannT Год назад

Thanks man I figured I should do that thanks for the reminder. 😅 But for sure I notice better response from mid range to higher RPMs

@reviewithme9913 Год назад

Isn’t that the filters job?😅

@PatriotHere 8 месяцев назад

Bro I did that too and it instantly increased the intake air temperature. Stock airbox is the best. Ended up jb welding the cut piece back to the airbox.

@ItsVannT 8 месяцев назад

@PatriotHere first and foremost thanks for the comment. I haven’t noticed any increase in temp and I still currently have this mod going. Although, I did add an air scoop where the air duct on the side of the front grill. So maybe that’s helped. I’ll have too keep a closer eye on my temp. What engine are you running?

@PatriotHere 8 месяцев назад

@@ItsVannTare you reading your IAT through BimmerLink? My IAT used to be no more than 20 degrees from ambient temperature and with this cut out it’s almost 40 degrees hotter. I have B46 engine, but stock air box is similar to yours.

@RetroRoy79 20 дней назад

Thinking of doing this to my 120d xdrive sport 2013, i have got a stage 1 remap and a piper cross panel filter so hopefully this will give me a nice noise 😊 and hopefully be a bit more responsive on acceleration although it is pretty quick off the mark as it is

@ItsVannT 19 дней назад

Post some clips! I’d love to hear that.

@joshbrown8480 Год назад

Did this on my 328d. Didn’t notice any gains or sound really. Going to replace stock filter with an AFE performance filter and see if that does something.

@ronin_boogz 5 месяцев назад

should've put some mesh in there to prevent large debris, leaves, rocks etc. from building up inside.

@kevinlopez7501 Год назад

Yes, I’m doing this right now with my airbox but I’m adding gold wrap to it too to help lower temps as well

@ItsVannT Год назад

That’s dope man I should consider doing that too.

@thintoast1152 3 месяца назад

Thinking of doing this on my 116d looks like I have same engine as you 2.0L tdi. Is ur engine n47?

@ItsVannT 3 месяца назад

My engine is the N20.

@mizmera Год назад

Will this still stop water on the road entering your engine?

@ItsVannT Год назад

We had a decent amount of rain sometime after I did this mod. Nothing happened. My car is pretty low. Also I don’t have a skid plate. Hope that gives you a better idea.

@mizmera Год назад

@@ItsVannT Thank you. I like my accord, really silent car. But if I push it I.want to hear it. Thus a noisy exhaust will not do for me. Just want to hear it when I flatten the throttle

@ItsVannT Год назад

@@mizmera drop in k&n filter will give it a better sound after the mod 👍🏽

@myidham1984 Год назад

So far how does it affect your fuel consumption and acceleration? Is it an improvement over the stock? Hope you can do another uldate video on this mod. Thanks

@ItsVannT Год назад

Thanks for commenting on this video. To answer your question I don’t notice much difference for fuel consumptions but slight improvement in acceleration on mid to higher RPMs. Less lag on throttle. Hope that helps

@myidham1984 Год назад

@@ItsVannT nice, thank you. Have you installed the K&N drop in filter? Any noticeable improvement?

@ItsVannT Год назад

@@myidham1984 I have put in the filter sounds much better seems that it breaths a lot better. More turbo sounds haha over all not a whole lot different from stock air filter.
