? I don't think we have 335i's and where do you get a "high performance" one? i thought the 3's were for comfort and 1's were for driving. :wink:

Overdue Update

Okay, sorry guys...got busy, lost track of time and have been working hard to get these filters to market which is going to happen VERY soon. If all goes well, they should be shipping out next week.

We ended up changing the pleat count to optimize the air flow characteristics. Here is a picture of the first production piece from the May production run (sans oil). Also, the Bimmerworld One Lap of America 1-series used one of or prototype N54 filters which is a good endorsement since they could of used any filter they wanted. Here is that link:

When you guys see the final product (pictures in first post), I think you will be really happy...they look awesome...

I mean, since Streamline first started, these N54's have to be the best looking ones by far. Many manufacturing improvements have been implemented and we had our best guys working on this entire production lot.

SHIPPING HAS COMMENCED AS OF TODAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Final Price: $99.95 shipped anywhere in USA/APO addresses

International shipping differential will be requested from those of you outside the USA.
Next project is the new M3...

Florida FTW

I cannot believe that probably 50% of the preorders and current orders have originated from the State of Florida.

I am interested however Jegs has the K&N for like $65 with shipping - What is my benefit for so much more $$ ?

Is there multiple results of at least 2x HP increase for example?

For $35 more, you get 2x as many plies of cotton which gets you OEM filtration level with same flow as the competition.

You get a filter tested to the strict ISO 5011 test.

You get D E E P E R pleats for better retention of particulates at high RPMs.

You get better quality manufacturing which is visually evident. We sweat the details. (Look at th pics in the link below, specifically the purse handle joint at the main filter junction)

You get a filter tuned specifically for your air box

You get a filter that is precision oiled (not over oiled from the factory like others)

What you don't get is a mass produced cookie cutter filter. Our filters are labor intensive to produce. The stout urethane frame is cured properly and so these are not rushed out the shipping doors.

$35 will not get you 2x rwhp but it will get you the most well thought out and built filter for your BMW with dyno proven and flow bench proven gains which probably took 2x as long to design and produce!
