As usual, let's see some before and after dyno charts. If you don't see them, assume no significant power gains.

GruppeM pulled out of N.A. because the intake for the E46 M3 caused it to lose significant HP. It was dubbed as nothing more than a show piece for the car............

K&N are promising somthing like 25 hp from their twin filters. There's a video on you tube it also changes the sound of the engine a bit, sounds great.
