Hes not lying about cost and gain, I like mine and took maybe 45min to install.

Stock filter
Stock vs UPD
New UPD filter and space gain
Left is stock right is UPD
Full upd install

M-Theory

i also installed new tubes to get rid of the paper material MB used. There are about $20 on amazon.


Stock top new bottom
Stock left new right
Both new tubes

Nice work, have you got a link to the Amazon parts please?

But these hoses are smaller than stock and also contracts when you full throttle

anyone who used silicon hoses?

Cyclone1

Agreed they look narrower but a wider piece can be used?

I doubt they would implode, but as an alternative can use rigid plastic as per 55k Intake set up?

TTMerc

Left side is the WOPerformace race intake, right side is stock. HAHAHHA

M-Theory

They DO NOT contract, these things are thick and rigid.

Someone could easily spend some time and money to have a aluminum intake tube fabed up with silicone couplers.

M-Theory

Why can't something like this be made to eliminate the entire air box, seems like it would make more power in theory.
hahaha that's honestly what I wanted to do but some how turn that turbo tube to eliminate the need for all that extra hose.

Did you drive it like that? If so how was that?

TTMerc

It was weird threw off the Fuel Trims on bank 1 pretty bad. I'm JK. The intake I'm working on is similar to the RK intakes but routed a different way.

Haven't driven it without a filter like this before. Maybe I'll make a run when the tracks open up just for fun.

TTMerc

Heres the RK Intakes very clean and simple idea. Same power as the AMS from what Ive read. Ive been working on some like this but obviously not CF. Should net the same gains just not look as puurdy.

kangal63

Wow. This rk kit seems really interesting. I Hope the price is good
edit: oh no i have the weistec heat exchanger in the place where the filters are. Damn

kangal63

Should be cool if anyone produce this with an airbox at this place

M-Theory

That RK kit has my fuel attention, I'd buy in a heart beat. Fill me in on what you're working on and parts needed, I'd love to build one my self.

whats RK stand for?

Crazy how how hard I search the net for things like this but never come across them.

Me and my friend did this setup for his E63 3 years ago


its PITA to keep removing the front bumper to replace intake filters


in some countries where dust is too much, its not practical

KLR CLS

RK Autowerks. They are big in the BMW scene for custom intakes like this. All cf pieces too. I'm waiting on dynos and final pricing on these intakes for a while now. Will also included a new engine cover due to the removed airboxes.

TTMerc

So what did you think about the gains of this type? Besides the dirt intake?

Also you've claimed to have a custom intake on your car that makes more power and much better design but never share pictures or any insight on it, only laugh at everyone else's. Curious what kind of setup it is.

M-Theory

I contacted them and they say they'll be working on a E63 version next.

The RK finished product... for CLS

Cyclone1

On this kit the Filters can be replaced without bumper removal.

Amg63-

What are power gains in this kit?

kangal63

do you have a link for the tube of the left side? I want to test it without filter

Ali_E55

they can't be dragged from that thin place, unless the filters are then and not thicker than 2"

gaspam

their website claims 22whp / 12 wtrq for $2,250... meh get a meth kit and make way more power, or get upd spacer kit as it made similar gains for almost $2K less
