I looked at the Modsfor bargain website, and noticed that there is drop in filter for a 530 diesil,
would this go straight into my cars air box, and does it give any performance ? does it sound louder, as a petrol cars would, or near enough i suppose, i am quite interested and what are the chrges for shipping.
I will have to ask my car garage to maybe install it.
Thanks
might sell 530d and buy M5, but need to wait a while for prices.
