NEW RELEASE: Dinan F90 M5 Cold Air Intake & Turbo Inlet Pipes

SGMM5 · 09-30-2021, 10:44 PM

No cel for me. That is strange. Based on the crankcase pressure code maybe it's something with the connections to the vent lines?

Going to triple check it again tomorrow but we made sure all connections to the vent lines and turbos are as tight as can be. I really can’t figure out why it’s reacting this way it makes no sense.

Did you ever sample Eventuri? Curious on your thoughts if so. I currently have and like my Eventuri, but the Dinan inlets have me thinking. So far Dinan is the only one that has addressed the inlet situation. I'm changing everything that deals with air flow except the turbos so this would be the final piece.

I had eventuri along with PG and wasn't really impressed by it. I thought temps were higher than PG but it did look great. I think Dinan with inlets is the best bet.

Y'all really think the inlets are going to make that much difference over oem? Besides what APR (I mean Dinan) says of course.

I called the dealers in the DFW area and none of them will install the inlet for me - WTF?

I am not mechanically inclined and need trusted experts to do this for me. Any recommendation / ideas?

Thank you.

Thank you.

See if you can find an Indy shop in your area to do the install.

There's a place called Bimmers Only in the Dallas area that has some decent reviews .. I did a quick search for BMW indy shops in your area.

Thank you both; I'll google the Indy shops in my area for the install. Will report back.

Had mine installed today
I never installed an intake before and the most complicated thing i ever did is placing a jb4.
I had hard time getting the inlet clip out in the beginning but with few manipulation i was able to do it
I will not say it is super easy but it is not tough

stefan · 10-03-2021, 01:16 PM

I'm not an intake guy but wow does that ever finish the engine bay to the point of looking more exotic. One of the nicest I've ever seen. No brainer for an M5 owner.

Looks like you’re one step closer to being an intake guy!
I do agree with you. I have a MSR front mount, but as far as cosmetic, this full system takes the trophy.

Slugsy01 · 10-03-2021, 04:49 PM

So anyone got a view between this, the Eventuri and GruppeM?

Just installed the inlets today, better throttle response almost negligible more noise , extremely esthetic and a bit more noise

FotiosF90M5 · 10-04-2021, 12:52 AM

Full system. Review to come. Great mod and much improved throttle response, without a doubt. Highly recommended.

Yeah it really is a gorgeous setup. Huge amount of carbon fiber yet still not overdone. I had the inlets first then went for the full intake to get what I think are the results it was designed to give.

Especially when combine together with the OEM carbon fiber engine cover

Curious to hear more about this. On the front page it seems Dinan is saying the intake part only starts increasing power on big power built m5s that are at 1000hp+ yet the inlets alone make some even on stock/stage1-2 m5s. Also really like that they make turbos more efficient and spool faster+increased throttle response.

Did you notice a change when going from inlets alone to inlets+intake setup?
