Can't imagine it would be any different than the other intakes like AFE and GruppeM

What about MSR intake? Is it any different? What gains it has? |
MSR intake is a completely different design and based on my personal experience and others, there are definitely some gains that are felt and seen on the dyno. More than the competition. The car pulls like a freight train. Lerxst M5 can attest to that. He had the intake only before his DINAN Stage 2 and there was a significant difference from stock install.
Wish there was some comparisons between all these intakes. I know several forum members went from GruppeM to MSR and saw/felt a difference. Hopefully they can chime in.
From George @ MSR that was posted in another post.
The Dyno has shown 20-40 WHP and torque between my stock M5 and on my fully modded M6 do to being more efficient, and my M6 had BMS filters charcoal filter delete RPI scoops befure intake. The Dyno doesn't show its true potential do to its unconventional design.
Everything has been tested from Vbox track and Dyno and proven gains not only on my personal cars but also customers cars as well. Two of my customers had Gruppe M and noticed a huge improvement immediately even before adapting.
Vbox gains have proven .5 seconds from 60-130 mph on my completely stock M5
Also track proven on a customers M5 knocked off .5 seconds off the 1/4 and gain 4-5 mph. My M6 world record 10.7 129mph befire intake 11.0 126-127mph These are real and proven tests not estimated guesses.
And I know it's hard to believe for an intake, but what people aren't realizing is the difference in its design. The air is compressed and the turbos don't have to suck the air now they flow more efficiently. The faster you go the higher the velocity and volume of air. Now the turbos pull all the way to redline as everything has been designed for this purpose. Even between shifts air is coming with instant gear snaps after fully adapting.
As for the filters they are made of 304 stainless steel mesh not cloth so weather has no effect and proven in daily use for over a year between my m5 and m6. |
Wow thank for the great info. I think I will be set with MSR! I have only two concerns. How MSR intakes handle hot climates? Is there a chance that MSR intake may cause any negative effect or harm to the engine in the long term?
