if you think that’s crazy money, then don’t go to BMW for any maintenance or partsSajk wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 5:54 pm Yikes. I bought an entire z4m roadster with 40k miles for 22k euros 2 months ago.
1.2k euros or about 5% of an entire car with bmw service history for one little part seems a bit silly. As they say where there is mystery there is margin. Crazy money compared to an entire car.
I was certainly hoping for an exact replica as well, but to be fair, facebook messages in what I assume is a second language for their staff is not exactly a good medium for exchanging/discussing details of the design. This approach would be more cost effective for them as well, so I can see the logic of this approach. I have asked if the final version will be one or two-piece but either way, it looks like their CSL-style filtered section will be used. An unintended consequence of this is that it may be able accept the CSL filter, meaning you wouldn't need the filter in the standard airbox. This is to be confirmed and I'm also not sure if eliminating a filter before the MAF would have any impact on the tune.grannyknot wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 9:58 pm I thought they agreed to make a replica of the stock intake box? So that it would look the same as stock but in carbon fibre.
It looks like they have done away with the stock look by eliminating the 6 conical bumps on the top for the trumpets
As Matt.13 says, they have started with half of the CSL box and modified the front.
It's interesting but it's not what they promised.
