BMC Filters

How many have tried these? Other than not having to buy factory filters every again, are their any noticeable differences?

Been selling a lot of them to guys that wants to keep stock look.
Based on my experiences, it gives you better engine response due to less restrictive air filter. Especially if you have tune and better flow exhaust system.
In stock form, you won't notice anything.

BTW, got your order. Thank you.

Ok perfect! Thank you for always replying fast. Yes, right now there aint much info regarding the LCI versions. Would be nice to see a Post about those mods that can be shared with Pre LCI and those that dont. Thanks again.

I have the LCI, cant talk about the pre lci models. I had a G80 and F80 and both had too. I think they use it for emission purposes if Im not mistaken so Im not surprised that models in other Countries might not have it.
