Will This Intake Fit With the Performance Power Kit?

[Novator]

I already feel like I know the answer to my own question, but I am curious if the Injen intake will work with my BMW Performance Power Kit. Don't get me wrong in what I am about to say, I appreciate the extra torque from my kit along with the faster cooling from the electric fan and side-mount radiator, but it almost seems that when BMW designed this kit they also did so in a way to make the fitment of certain intakes (i.e. Dinan). I know the Dinan intake is ridiculously expensive, though a Gruppe is twice as such. Anyway, getting back on track, does anyone know if there will be fitment issues since with the kit relocated the power steering reservoir and added the control box for the electric fan? If this doesn't fit I suppose the aFe DCI will be my only choice. I have nothing against the BMS intakes, I know someone who runs it and he is content with them, but I like the aesthetics of the Injen and aFe DCIs.

doesnt look like it, and to put that in youd also need a plenum to fully take advantage or else your going to be sucking in stale air.

I'd just take advantage of the plenum you have now and get an AFE. It looks nice and performs well.

Honestly, I've got a K&N DCI, and i couldn't be happier. ya, it doesn't look as cool, but i don't have my hood up all to often anyways. better than the BMS. And cheaper
