What’s the benefit of the X5M intake tubes?
Anything besides aesthetics? I looked up the stock X5M ones and they seemed pretty pricey.

If you don't mind can you please send me pics of X5M intake tubes installed in your M50i , is it a straight fit or do i have to make some more modification if i want to install those in my M50i.
Thanks

It's a pull out/pop in proposition but you do have to hold your mouth just right. I'll get some pics this evening.

Sounds like you have the BMC, charcoal delete and X5m intake tubes-- you mentioned it sounds a bit better.

Do you happen to have those photos? Thank you!

Thanks for the reminder. I will try again this evening.

The X5M tubes are the same as the M50, they just don't have the resonator on top.

They are the same just without the triangle part on the top, (Silencer) Not sure why but when I installed mine i started to have some small hestitations under load and when slowing down. So I changed mine back to stock and stop doing it. Weird, well i didnt notice any difference either.

looks like you had a lot going on there, no change in driveability at all on this one. gonna have to tell my wife to try a car wash once in a while though....

Once they realized that a few weeks ago, they were contemplating designing one for the M50i. The way it sounded, it didn’t seem like they would move in that direction being concerned with demand for them.

I said I don’t think that will be an issue given all the interest I come across through forums etc.

A few days ago, I surprisingly received a message from them saying they will be moving forward with a M50 version. They will begin Scanning soon and developing the new housing. Eta is a couple months. Hope it Will be worth the wait. Lol.

Everything is north of $2k with taxes and shipping. Dinan just offered their intake at $1900 as part of their sales event. Only options are Gamma project (lots of drama on the M5 boards about their product and they never responded to my email), eventuri, and Dinan.
