Doubt anyone is going to want to take a punt if it’s made your car run strange. What do you mean by that? Does it idle funny or something?
The N52 engine bay can get canny hot. Could it need colder air perhaps?

Well the previous owners car ran fine with it on, mine was a bit lumpy through the high end of the Rev range in 3rd and 4th down low it was fine, but I’ve only had it fitted for about 20 miles and apparently these take time to learn it’s actually got more air feeding in, no rough idle and it does sound great to be honest.

I’d maybe give it more time then. It looks canny to. I’d maybe remove the N/S front grill to remove the plastic bucket trim piece at the front of the intake and replace with a ram air scoopy metal thingy.

It is a good piece of kit but I think I’m going to try and flog this and stick the money into the exhaust instead.Doddsy wrote: ↑Mon Jun 21, 2021 5:12 pmI’d maybe give it more time then.
