Nah, stocker is just fine for me.

Air filters are a must though!

Quick and easy 10-15hp I think.

I ordered mine directly from k&n. They seemed to be a few bucks cheaper when I was doing my shopping.

Sold - 05' E55
Stock Oil Filter -

And the air filters are about the cheapest HP gain you can get.

Has y one modded the stock intake tubes on 55k. The ends of the tubes where they get the air from the front just behind the grill are a little blocked up. Has any one cut them or done any mods to them to get more air in. If so do tell or PIC's please
