[QUOTE="thule, post: 436807, member: 14511"] DIY?? :rolleyes: I wonder how to scoop cool air into the OEM Airbox when the air is not cool :D don't forget that Malaysia is panas dan lembap sepanjang tahun so it has no cool air (well, with the exception in the morning but how cool can it gets? I wonder... ). However with the drop-in KNN, the airflow will be improved a bit although not as much as the aFe intake :D H&R ARB is next on my list :top: hey, you can actually consider the PowerBox as it brings out the best to the 523 model!! Beats me :rolleyes: maybe bro mustaffali can shed some lights here! Hi Noctilux, Since you are a newbie, please introduce yourself in the newbie section before all the official members, founding members, vice president, moderator or even the president himself ask you to :D it's a rule here! and do make yourself active by participating a lot in this forum if you are intending to sell anything. I have already checked and the Powerbox will not fit your X5 with N62 engine :wink: however, if you don't mind the groaning sound (it can get a little bit noisy especially when you accelerate), you can choose to install the aFe Stage 2 Pro5R Intake Kit just like what I did to my E60. The part number will be #54-10682 :top: However from what I see, it will cost you about USD500 or more including delivery charges from US to Malaysia. Please read this thread thoroughly on how to save on our Malaysian Custom Tax! I sudah kena :D so you have been warned! After that, you will feel the improvement in both pickup (from standstill) and acceleration! [/QUOTE]
