My 'QuickSilver'

I think there maybe a solution to this ... elbow joints i think there is enuff room for d box to face downwards plus enuff room to attach d BMC hose. there's a forumer in bimmerworld dat done this to his e46 ... very fascinating and i intend to try out
talking bout hose size ... i think u may kinda miss d point there ... the design of d BMC is to accelerate air as fast and as much as possible hence d pointy bits in our box whereby to create an air-ram effect by acceleration... so i guess size of d hose is not important if d design and d intended effect are not how much air but how fast can d air get in

p/s: good choice wif d conforti air intake but i think u can jz buy d heatshield made by conforti then fit it to your BMC cos IMHO BMC is on par if not better than conforti but then again i may be wrong hehe

We will see eventually. The dyno speaks a thousand words. =p And I think the solution for the e46 might differ from the e36 engine bay. But I could be wrong as well. Good luck with it though. =)

D airbox can still b position to face downwards but d hose still wont fit :banghead: so i've resign to fit d box behind d edge of d headlamp where there is an opening dat hv air coming in directly from d kidney grill. this way when d car is moving d box still gets fresh air tho not much if connected to a hose as intended. so can only tekan when nite time whr air is more colder ... day time driving miss daisy lerrr hehehe.

Hopefully can dyno and post result here soon. Bro ...know any good place to dyno our UDM's?

Honestly, I've never done a dyno before. But from what I know, there's no difference where you go. Only the results matter. Of course that's if you ignore the price. I'm planning to do a unichip install/tune so I'll get the dyno results after tuning is done. =)
