Before I traded in my car, I parted a few of the mods I had on it, and this is the only thing left to sell. It only been on the car for a few months, and it's in solid condition. Here is the listing:

i've seen cars with two of these mounted behind the grille. why do you have one? is this the difference between what you need for a v6 and v8?

The car you saw with 2 mounted behind them was most likely an M5 because it has intakes on each side of the car. I only have 1 because the 530 has one intake which is located on the driver side. The air scoop assists the air flow going directly into the intake system which increases horsepower by a little bit; but it also just looks cool lol.

Someone mentioned dual scoops on the V8 - some people have a dual duct mod on their 545s and 550s - search the forum to learn more, but in a nutshell, it is a second air duct leading into the airbox. It adds some performance and employs dual scoops on the V8. Original mod is by Dinan, but there is a "bootleg" version that you can fabricate yourself inexpensively, if you're a little handy and have the tools.
Can't believe none of the I6 guys jumped on this scoop yet! I bought my scoop about 6 months ago and I can't tell you guys how much it is worth the money. And I paid more than this! RPI FTW![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)
PS Another confirmation (not like you need it) - this will NOT fit V8s.
