Just curious if anyone thinks having a ram air cold intake pipe


BMC filter and RPI exhaust gives any power increase if any?

I was looking for more of an estimate, suggestions or some kind of input.... than to go spend money on a dyno........I woulda done that already if that was the case.

looks like you already have everything installed, why wouldn't you want to get a dyno?

estimate or not, secondary info has a few variables...dyno, dyno operator, even the driving style of invidual can effect the outcome measures..

also: increases in hp are not cumalative: meaning the RPI scoops are 1-2 hp increases where the RPI exhaust is ???? (not even sure what that number is, but let's say 10 hp hyporthetically), that does not translate to + 11 or 12 hp...

so your exact set up, especially since you have a self made scoop vs rpi scoop or other brand would not really apply, hence an independent dyno....motorcepts is local to you and has a dyno correct? Dyno's don't run too much....I'm actually a bigger fan of vbox measurement rather than dyno numbers, but dyno numbers tend to be the normal form of measurement...

in any case, good luck with your search, I wasn't trying to just be vague and useless with my original post...

yea the stuff has been on for a whie now........I just got curious because I raced a 2012 535 and beat him Im also getting 0-60 times of 4.8-5.0 seconds repeatedly using gps based systems, I downloaded 2 other gps based programs and gonna try with those to see if theres a difference. I been to Motorcepts at least 10 times and didnt notice a dyno or never seen people being dynoed........Ill ask them.

Its cool, I was just looking for some opinions thanks for your time!

ran some more 0-60 runs with Fastest Droid and GPS speed (both GPS based)and got an average of 4.988 after 6 runs that was in DS mode...and a bit of tire spin...Ill keep messing with it
