Hi All,
Are any of you out there using a carbon dynamics airbox system on the 325 m20 engine and if so are they worth the hype.
cheers

The original airbox is hard to beat IMO, whichreminds me I need one! However a cold airfeed and or heat shield would do yours the world of good.

ive got one on my 318is and it will be going on my 325 when it is on the road, even if it doesnt give any extra power the noise alone does it for me.

Works fine on my E30 325i - no restriction in air intake to speak of!

I've got one, but I can't hear it over my exhaust
I tried it on my E46, made a nice noise when you floor it, nice and quiet when cruising at speed. Can't say it made any difference to the power though.
There's some vids of it on the M54B22 in my E46 on this page:
