I was think about buying the AFE Pro Dry S Synthetic Dry-Media Intake System for my 2004 530i, but was wondering is it a good upgrade for my car as proformance wise or should i leave my car stock?

dont do the AFE. best intake setup has been the RPI ram air scoop paired with an aftermarket air filter, either K&N or BMC. then you can always remove the charcoal filter as well. we have the scoops in stock
