EVERY BMW OWNER NEEDS THIS UPGRADE! | BMW Air Intake Ram Air Scoops

[@The1WhoKnowsTheTruth]

They are a cool idea but they block too much of the radiator for my liking. These cars need all the air they can get through the rad to keep temps down.

[@BigCatProjects]

No chance you feel a difference driving 😅

[@tmc8516]

Nah you don’t I just installed them last week and they small af in person lol. They look good tho I have red ones

[@v.k8570]

20$ Placebo

[@KDimaXXV]

@@tmc8516I just did mine, red as well

[@dancearoundtheworld5360]

i got a hvac duct pointed to botton left fog light corner since my pod filter is super low to get coolest air, my lowest temp was 77°

[@fullycircle262]

Try blue & red !

[@glaprince]

You could easily drill some holes into the scoop surface for rain water to get through. Ordered a pair, I wonder if it is going to work well

[@NovieBigSad]

Just got em! Can't wait to install and see if there are any effects

[@tahmimmiah963]

What did you think of this mod?

[@slizzyliz3938]

[@omarspost]

These air scoops will increase STATIC PRESSURE in the STOCK AIR BOX, which will make more of a difference to throttle response than open air cone filters. N54 stock air box and a decent filter can handle 400+. Cones offer HIGH FLOW RATE; great for when youre chasing over 450hp (sound better too). Its worth reading up on static pressure vs high flow rate and their suited application, but lets be honest, screw the science, 2 cones with air scoops looks badboy!

[@mohe81]

People in forums always say these can't make a difference, because the air suction of the engine is greater than the pressure these scoops can build up. But people often only think the first step. These scoops increase the density of the air infront of the filter, which does not mean that they press the air into the engine, but the resistance the engine has to overcome to suck new air in is lowered and especially when you step on the gas from idle, which is normally the moment where it takes a bit of time to develop power, the engine can first use up the air pressure infront of the filter, before it has to actively suck air through the long and unfavorably shaped (at least for the inline engines) air intake. That might indeed make the car feel a little bit more agile, even though it prbly doesnt show on the dyno. But by far most importantly: When you have an open air filter, you want to guide as much cold air to the filter as possible, to avoid that hot air from the engine bay is sucked in. When you use the scoops and lead the pipe on the inside of the engine bay directly to the air filter, you wont build up any air pressure, but you make sure that there is always enough (or at least more) cold air around the air filter. And that has the potential to make a big difference. Everything above is about POTENTIAL gains, not tested with any air flow sensors or what ever. Do with that what you want. I hava an open air filter for the sound and want to minimize the power loss I know it causes and will therefore print me some scoops. So they dont cost me a lot and its no pitty if a decide to go back to the closed filter.

[@BritishBeeMan]

This has been proven wrong sooooo much. You realise the air going under the car is being compressed, thus high pressure. The bottom of the engine bay on these cars has large holes on it. The under tray leaves massive gaps. This high pressure forces air up into the engine bay. This mass of air is more than enough for the engine and the air density is not going to be increased at all with the use of grill scoops. There is no resistance for the engine to overcome. Especially when using the stock intake (which provides more power and better throttle reposnse than a k&n) style intake.

[@bamwa]

@@BritishBeeMan the intake is IN FRONT of the engine bay. any pressure up around the engine IS NOT getting in front of the condenser AND radiator and into the vents. You are tripping. It may however suck water into the air filter.

[@omarspost]

@@BritishBeeMan bamwa is right. STOCK air intake is a sealed box, not an open cone filter. Also, if youre looking to chase 400-450hp, it turns out cones arent much better than stock (sounds better though). These air scoops will increase static pressure in the STOCK AIR BOX, which will make more of a difference to throttle response than cone filters.

Thank you very much for your recognition and support of our product. This is a product produced by our company. We hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you in the future and provide you with higher quality products.

[@terrelharrison429]

Clean the engine bay, that will help with airflow too!😁

[@rjhtrucking5429]

Hi , great mod but did you check inside the nostril as on mine, only one of the ducts was open ! ? The other duct was molded off and I had to heat up a knife and slice it out. It was Obviously moulded closed from when it was formed at the time of manufacture.

[@IzzyE9X]

that’s very interesting, I’ve seen that before. do you have the N52 328i or the 325i?

[@rjhtrucking5429]

@@IzzyE9X no , I have the n47 diesel engine. It's a 3 series touring. Originally it' was 175bhp but I've had it remapped and now it's about 205. Maybe only one duct was open as it was only intended for 175hp.

[@leeanderson0007]

Hi bud I had this on mine too. I opened up the 2nd part of the duct.. a real difference after I did it 💯💯👍🏽

[@WMRV]

I would try this but idk about the water thing cause it might not be the best in the long run

[@bamwa]

yeah on a hwy rainy day your air filter is gonna get SOAKED. especially behind a semi

[@seanmt5]

There is waaayyy more volume of air coming in when driving for those scoops to actually do anything, think about it..... You're essentially doing noting and it wont make a difference

[@stevecariggillio4139]

I have red ones that look pretty cool. I don't think they do anything for performance though. Also no change in cooling.

[@christopherchristiaan3788]

Intake air temperature will change, you can ready it on basic obd reader before and after installment, will make diffeence especially having cold air intake

[@nenadovmail]

On my 318i, left intake is originally blocked off 😆 Maybe would be better to first install some air intake from models like yours, to increase airflow, but thanks for the vid.

[@invtrk1046]

They blocked off the left side of the 320i, too. Not just 318i. I drilled holes in the front of mine and superglued a plastic tube to get more air in the system.

[@nenadovmail]

@@invtrk1046 Was thinking of doing the same or just installing intake from some 6 cylinder... but doubt I'll feel the difference. Maybe with some tuning.

[@invtrk1046]

@@nenadovmail Will the intake from a 6 cylinder fit in the engine bay?

[@nenadovmail]

@@invtrk1046 I think so, because you got more space in front of the engine without those 2 cylinders. Haven't tested but you got enough space to fit another small engine there 😄

[@francon4489]

Does it also work for diesel engines? Thank you

[@dominikpleskac7162]

Thanks for that Tip

[@jinoziniosti5633]

Another great upgrade vid bro thank you. Would this be worth it with dual cones ?

[@IzzyE9X]

I would definitely say so yeah

[@NewDesignVinylGraphics]

They aight I'm probably gonna grab the 1 vision performance scoops tho. Theyre larger and come with a nice 1VP decal

[@IzzyE9X]

they’ll definitely improve throttle response in the upper RPM range

[@sicktunechaser]

Do these fit z4 BMWs?

[@BmwolotlE90]

LOL i got mine in the same box and everything, i installed mine today aswell after changing mickey mouse flange while waiting for coolant bleeding procedure i installed it lol

[@tj2change]

I think it looks weird if you watch it trough the grill and see this huge plastic sticking out , i love the idea tho but they should make a smaller one that doesnt stick out as much

[@IzzyE9X]

the black color are 100% invisible. I’ve never once noticed them on my own care and I’m very OCD about things like that haha

both

Hi I have a 2007 328i 3.0l i6 is this car a n52 or n53 I can't figure it out it's a 4 door sedan manufactured in Germany

[@IzzyE9X]

N52

[@IzzyE9X]

searching the VIN in a decoder will tell you your engine configuration.

[@KronosIV]

Being that the N54 and N55 engines are forced induction, I really don't think this will do anything.

[@damirbegic250]

‘Forced induction’ is something unknown? Why, more air to turbo, more air to compress and more oxygen to the cyllinder.

[@miticsmilos]

Looks interesting, but I cannot get it. With this the air intake is maximized and it's get to the air filter which is dense and directly slow down intake to the level how much it can receive through that dense filter material. On the other hand this can ensure that you always have enough air in front of filter, something like air buffer. I will probably try 3d printed ones to see is there any change on diesel. :)

[@NewDesignVinylGraphics]

Lmfao 😂

[@miticsmilos]

@@NewDesignVinylGraphics Did I said something wrong or my English is so bad? 😄

[@dewey8831]

So I shouldn’t buy these if I’m getting an air intake?

[@teezy_s]

6:13 .. and yet our intake manifolds, air inlets, filter boxes, MAF sensors ... are all not metal ... metal heat soaks

[@terry1amd163]

I don't think it's effective at all.. In addition it is somehow blocking part of the radiator..

and if it rains you can not drive the car, at least fast enough

[@leeanderson0007]

Nice video bud... Clean your engine bay lol 😜

[@Siatkowkarzadzi]

Lol, that is some serious BS. Turbo will suck as much air as it needs. The scoops will make no noticeable difference... They would only if the air was pushed to the engine by the forward movement of the car (and that effect is way below the actual air demand even at high speeds).

[@MohVlogz]

IT DOES NOTHING AT ALL, JUST FOR LOOKS
