Finally the waiting is over. Stoped by IND for the first production intake installation. It was actually very easy and quick to install about 45min.

Product quality is phenomenall
Absolutely gorgeous looking!!

Thank you IND for reserving the first spot for me
Car is coming along very nice, can't wait for more.

*** Edit— Drove it for about 1 hour and I must say it sounds amazing, every time you step on throttle it whistle's
It's intoxicating, can't stop doing it. Lol
The car is more responsive too.

12/20/18 added video from inside cabin

Thanks, just got home. Oh man dose it sound great
I absolutely love it!!!!
I do feel more responsiveness too, same thing I noticed when I replaced the down pipes. This is just so much more noise inside the cabin. And this car is so good insulated.
Sorry didn't have the time to schedule the time for Dyno.
Once I am all done with modes I will post Dyno results.

Looks great and can imagine the incredible sound. I had turbo spool whistle off every street light on my X5M when it was fully modded. But can you let us know if those front air scoops direct road dirt, rain, snow, or dust into the engine compartment.

Looks amazing!

I'm still debating if I want to go with an intake as Ive been told performance gains are minimal as best. Would love to hear more feedback on the performance gains and daily driving improvement since we both have the RaceChip installed with aftermarket exhausts!

Also, do you think the install can be done yourself? I like to get my hands dirty time to time and installed intakes previously on my RS7 with no issues. Curious to know if there were any special tools or if it required bumper removal etc?

looks great. mine will be here friday!

shayan30: yes you can do it yourself. i installed an eventuri intake on my f82 and it was easy. at first glance this looks like it might be even easier. certainly taking the grill off on the f90 is easier than the f82.

One question Ben, I feel it pulls harder not because of intake much ( feel more responsive) but do you think 'sense I got RC from you that it gets more air . Boost should be always the same right?
It just felt it pulls much better now. Could be just the Excitement, lol

It will be the same boost gain.
Right now you feel it spool faster since the engine breath and release gas easier.
Imagine if you are with stuffy nose and constipated, you will be more sluggish, while still having the same amount of power.

I just recently re-install my stock downpipe, the car doesn't pickup the power as quick as when I was on catless.

Not sure, and I really don't care

I changed a lots of things on this car, including full Eisenmann exhaust,down pipes, Race Chip...etc

I want to enjoy this car as much as I can, now it's the way it supposed to look and sound
