aFE Magnum FORCE Stage-2 Si Sealed Intake
Hi all,
I've always been an advocate of a completely sealed intake. I've looked around and this one from aFE seems to have popped up as an excellent candidate. aFE has another model which is open ontop but seals with a grommet to the top of the hood (personally not a fan of that design). Has anyone had any experience with this particular intake? http://afepower.com/shop/details_new...0L&&brandID=56 Last edited by PeteA; 10-29-2013 at 06:04 PM.. |

The restriction on the OEM airbox is not the panel filter. It's the 3"x4" opening to the airbox. Looks like this design would not address that fundamental issue.

Surprsingly difficult to find anyone with first hand experience with this intake.
I noticed AnoooOH has it on his N55, as well as the Blisten 335i for SEMA that was featured on Motortrend YouTube channel a few weeks back. Might give it a go, but I'll still ask around for any info :P Regarding the lack of flow via the stock piping, wouldn't the scoops aFE sell help with that a little bit? Only other sealed option I have found for the N55 is the Groupe M....forget it $$$ |

I just sold mine! Running the oem airbox now.
The sound of the turbo was annoying lol.
