BMW E9X M3 AFE CARBON FIBER INTAKE INSTALL - LOOKS AND SOUNDS INSANE - Bmw E90 E92 E93 Intake System

[@ThicWhips]

Pretty happy with the results, let me know what you guys think!

[@kylesm235i4]

Leaving the factory air box off would make more noise and more performamce IMO

[@ThicWhips]

Yup. I prefer oem look.

[@ajay6853]

Can't really ask for more from that model BMW. It's already top notch.

[@TheSecretOperation]

Bro you honestly know how to build the absolute cleanest builds I’ve personally ever seen. Keep it up

[@ThicWhips]

Thanks man 🙏🏽

[@danmcgowan4761]

Wow man I think that defiantly sounds way better! And it’s not crazy $$$. I’m going to look into on for my E-92 M3. Thanks keep the videos coming!!!

[@ThicWhips]

Ansolutely! I didn’t realize how loud it actually was until I was editing the video. 😂

[@Jmenex93]

I got mines install 2 days ago but it’s hard to hear it the difference when your Catless 😂

[@d.4063]

Although it has been debated over and over again on the forums, there seems to be no consensus on how much louder the Afe intake sounds versus the OEM intake. If you'd have to name a percentage, how much louder is the Afe intake elbow over the OEM intake? And is the carbon fibre one worth the $500?

[@giovanni14]

Nice! Intake is next on my list, same deal purely doing it for sound. Torn if to get a full intake system or just swap to a better filter, from what i'm reading same sound upgrade. Try a tune next, i'm leaning towards the alpine tune a bunch of people have gotten on Bimmerpost, seems reasonably priced and pretty legit. Enjoyin the content brother keep it up

[@ThicWhips]

Definitely, tune is coming 💪🏽

[@TheLPCGAMING]

Car looks amazing and i love the tips. Going to check out a E92 m3 on wednesday just sold my 335i. Fell in love

[@ThicWhips]

Awesome! Good luck!

[@ernsgarage4621]

I just purchased this same intake, don’t really care for performance gains. Just hoping it really gives it more induction sound!

[@barworkoutCANADA]

And did it achieve more sound?

[@E90Mel]

E90 gang

[@ThicWhips]

Gang gang 🤘🏽

[@omaralers3660]

Sounds way different! Killer😍😈

[@ThicWhips]

🙌🏽💪🏽

[@deutsch323]

Sound check starts 11:40

[@ThicWhips]

Don’t listen to Peter, it starts at 00:01

[@MrDitlind]

U doin a good job mate, I just think u should’ve got the armytrix exhaust, that Italian guy’s e92 sounds bonkers. Keep it up

[@ThicWhips]

Thanks!

[@fullcarsworld]

What is the size of the wheels? Did you change the springs?

[@BlackM3Comp]

Next up Stage 1 tune and bring it to a dyno to see what kind of power it makes.

[@ThicWhips]

Yessir

[@nicopasquotti8162]

What mount do you use for your phone in your car?

[@trancing2341993]

What’s the (thing) on your third brake light?

[@twinturbo8304]

I just bought a 2011 m3 so I will be following your channel. doing rod bearings right now and then the fun will start. Exhaust and intake first. Do you have any other engine mods or should I just leave the rest stock?

[@ThicWhips]

I left mine mostly stock. To really get power out of these you need to supercharge and it gets very expensive. I think these are great as is, they are such well balanced handling cars that sound good

[@ag42979]

Are you going to do a big brake kit?

[@ThicWhips]

Yes

[@robinl55]

Awesome clean build! Whats next? Supercharger perhaps? :)

[@ThicWhips]

Eventually yes!

[@rollingreggie9576]

Bro I kno u made a video on the n20 timing chain but do u think if u are under the 7 year 70k mile extended warranty, would there be any way 2 get bmw to proactively replace it ?

[@ThicWhips]

Not unless it fails or shows signs of premature wear.

[@nicochee6505]

after you install a cold air intake, do you need to tune your ECU?

[@ThicWhips]

No

[@trancing2341993]

What front lip is it?

[@nicktuned8666]

Gintani tune next 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽 good job on the vid bro!

[@ThicWhips]

*rktunes > gintani

[@nicktuned8666]

Thic F30 I’m pretty sure Gintani has the record for the S65 and S85 HP record

[@ThicWhips]

The record for the most blown s65 engines. 😂 In all seriousness though, I’ve done my research, and everyone that I’ve spoken to with the builds that I respect have advised me to stay away from gintani. There’s also a plethora of people on the forums advising against gintani. The fastest and most horsepower tune isn’t always the best. Your goal should be power while maintaining a certain level of reliability. That’s my take ✅

[@nicktuned8666]

Thic F30 I mean to be fair I was a BMW tech and I’ve done my research as well and I didn’t see anything to do with blown S65’s but in all fairness you are an actual owner of an S65 car so the information is definitely different whenever you’re actually a part of the topic. I only said Gintani because I didn’t even know RK tunes S65’s 😂 but hell yea man. Super excited for what’s next!

[@ThicWhips]

🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@jansalin9830]

how much does a m3 cost in the us? in finland its around 55-85k and in a good condition e92 335i is around 20-30k :/

[@ThicWhips]

Next video covers this ✅

[@atysz]

New whipppppp?

[@ThicWhips]

Lol

[@drew6391]

Please please please don’t super charge this. Turbo the v8! Don’t be like everyone else !

[@ThicWhips]

Haha

[@felizgarage]

What paddle shifters are those?
