What did yours cost in total with shipping and taxes? Would rain not be an issue for us in the UK? My M5 is my only car so is used all the time whatever the weather.

Pikey Motorsports · 11-03-2018, 08:01 AM

Approx £700 all in

As a daily maybe an issue in the uk, but I only use mine for fun really

Where do the mafs go??

Pikey Motorsports · 11-04-2018, 05:57 PM

same place as before

Pikey Motorsports · 11-04-2018, 06:26 PM

Few pics

I love mine. Although installing was a little tough at first. I love everything else about them. Especially the cost compared to the ones going for $2000.

I live in WA where it always rain. Not problems yet so far.

For me that wasn’t so bad. First thing that was hard was pulling out the grills. When I had the OEM grills, I just did the 2 hands on a grill and pull technique. With the iND Gloss black ones I was having trouble and didn’t want to break them so I pulled the clips off the top of the bumper to loosen the grill clips. I still broke a bottom clip. Grrr.

Second hardest part was not initially pulling the tube out far enough in the front to make the tube, metal pipe and filter all connect. Sam @ Project Gamma said the metal pipe may have been to short because the filter would constantly hit the metal bar in the front.

I finally learned and pulled the silicone tubing out far enough to install filters. Up top near the turbo was a little tight because I pulled it quite a bit up front, but it all worked out in the end. I notice on some installs filters are either more towards the center of the grills or close the the headlights.

I’m pretty content with my filters. I wish they came in a color like yours when I ordered mine, but going on the spectre website they have so many colors and filter options.

What you plan on going with next?

AWF10M5 · 11-05-2018, 12:51 PM

I ran the original ones a year ago for alot less price and they were good. I also had the bms ones before switching to them.

It got tiring to be worried about the rain always so this time I did rpi scoops and the bms.

The sound difference between bms and the grill intakes is not too much to justify paying the extra $$$

Guys, my humble opinion is to stay away from stainless steel mesh filters. They let in TOO much dirt/grime/debris.

Happy modding!

These are a paper sort of mesh

May change the filters but will keep an eye on them over the next few weeks! These intakes have certainly added power to my bm3 tune though! Can’t wait to try these with the racefuel map

I can definitely feel it too with my BM3 Stage 2. I feel it mid range and a little top end.

PattyF10M5 · 11-06-2018, 04:01 AM

So I couldn't resist.

I purchased the project gamma intakes in the end despite my hesitation of any risk with filters exposed.

Ill be putting a little extra TLC every few months to keep filters clean though.
