I did a google search, but couldn't find a web site to purchase the air filter I seen in a thread here. Can anyone help?
Looking for a High flow air filter like this one: Macht Schnell - S65B40 High Performance Panel Air Filter for e9x M3

some of the vendors carry this. i am shopping for one as well... debating between the AFE one and the MS.... look under the classifieds vendors section.

I think its www.renn-spec.com where I just ordered that one.

What made you decide between the MS and AFE?

Ask Simon@Rennspec or tom @ eas.

Thanks for the link. Now, do I just leave the new filter on and not put the filter housing back? I seen the carbon fiber housing and I think as nice as it looks, the gain wouldn't justify the price.

I think leaving it open without the housing would suck up hot air from the engine compartment...wouldn't that cancel out any gains from having a bit less restriction....
