The K&N kit has been tested and proven to make no hp or even lose hp when the hood is closed on the dyno. This was not only tested by us, but also by many other members on this board. Not to mention CEL's since they didn't do their research on how the factory ambient air temp sensor needs to be with in a certain range of the air intake temp sensor. If they were familiar with BMW's and software programming they would know this. Also, it is not a CAI since the filters are not located in a direct cold air source. It baffles me how some company's can claim to call their systems "CAI" when they don't understand what the meaning really is. As far as the pricing is concerned, there is a huge difference in manufacturing costs when your talking about CNC'd aluminum billet parts from our mass meter housings to all of our brackets and tubing vs. what K&N offers with their kit Lastly. we have proven and backed every product we manufacture with posted dyno sheets on this board. We have seen and heard of many claims from many other companies, and no real dyno graphs to back the claims.
In the end there is not just one thing that makes our intake or Dinan's more expensive than K&N's. As you can see there are several different factors behind our cost differences.
Thank You for the positive comments in regards to Juan's car, they are very much appreciated!
