I know this has no bearing on the X5, but alot of the E46 M3 Roadfly guys has had good results in horsepower increases and freer revs with their AFE intakes. They did have some rough idle and stumbling idle issues when the AFE intake was first released but it has all been fixed.
The AFE intake for the 4.4i doesn't really look any different from the Dinan stuff and even the Dinan stuff doesn't really add much HP/TORQUE except for maybe the higher end. The question is who is going to be the first guinea pig?
I'll talk to Brad or Simon at Evosport and see if anyone else has tried it.
BTW, who is going to Bimmerfest this weekend?
