Good news for the 50i guys, the air filter measurements are indeed the same (just confirmed) and should be compatible with no issue.
Question remains, do I get the K&N filters or do a new intake system. Have to weigh the pros and cons.
What are you guys with M50s doing?
The intake filter design actually has held up quite well on the N/S63. A lot of the F10 & F90 M5 guys are throwing down big power with stock box and charcoal delete / K&N. My 2 cents is that a full intake will definitely give you better sound and spool noises if you want that, but performance improvement over upgraded filters may not be tangible.
Agreed. It'd just be for noise. I fear possibly a performance loss which I'm not a fan of. A lot of these new air box designs from the factory are quite impressive, minus all the restrictive filters
