Mr5 intake on 135i?

RnmEvo9 · 09-30-2011, 06:04 PM

Has anyone done this to their 135i? I know the 135i has less space compared to the 335i, but this DIY is very well written and I'm curious about trying it myself, but not sure if the same parts would fit thanks limited space. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=549965

If anyone has done it to their 135i, please chime in.

Thanks!

This is about the same as the DINAN CAI.....But about 1,000 bucks cheaper

It can work. I ran into some problems as far as space. First you'll have to modify the power steering bracket. Second the only way to get a filter to fit down there with the 1er is to remove the plastic piece that is supposed to be the routing for air for the brakes. I ran into these problems and put back my stock box as I haven't had time to modify the power steering bracket and I'm running the Cobb stage 1 93 oct tune and it pulls like a beast even with the stock box.
