Adrian thanks for your comments. Peter took the DCI off the next day and the setup is sitting in his dyno cell as far as I know.

Not sure if it was clear in my original post a couple back. We tested with no filter in standard box, and no performance gains, which means any drop in replacement would have the same or worse result. The restriction is in the box lid. All air passes from one side of it to the other, and this is where the restriction is. An intake setup that wants to improve things has to improve this area... so DCI does it, and Dinan does it, and system that put a seperate pod feeding the filtered side of airbox do it, but anything retaining the original lid unmodified with no way to bypass the lid will be no better than stock from a power perspective. Of course... it may be cheaper or something which is another reason to buy it.

Adrian and Peter have demonstrated to me with dyno runs that a good aftermarket air filter and intake setup can produce worthwhile gains.

True for a 135 running 8psi but 1M which run 14psi so intercooler, dci and especially downpipes will help.

I actually took my car through the Crystal Carwash on the weekend! I even sprayed some Mothers wheel cleaner on the hideously blackened wheels beforehand!
For me this is lavishing my car with love.

Sounds like its due to have a FS sticker slaped on it via your past history.

Just read this thread from start to finish. Very impressive car Kenny! I'm astonished at the potential these N54 engines have.

That's what you said 4 months (probably longer) ago right? there must be something about the car that's keeping you from selling up. After all the mods I'm sure you'll be sad to see it go. Nice build.
