Hi,

I have a 97 m3 coupe, and im sure this question has been answered before...but im looking for an intake to replace my factory air box.... if i get a cold air intake will i have to remove the bumper to install it? Also.... i eventually want to get HID's, will the intake get in teh way of the HID unit?

I have heard ECIS is pretty good, so is GruppeM....

Im looking for the best sound and performance... i had a 325is with a CAI and i nearly wet my pants at 5000rpm...... thats kinda what im lookin for.

I would prefer the keep the cost under $230 USD / $300 CDN new, or $100-$200 used.

Thanks in advance!

Shawn

Carbonio Intakes seem pretty cool. But I don't know how they stack up in HP gains to the others.
