K&N Filter
Hi All,
I have a 2017 120I M Sport with the 1.6 Turbo petrol engine. Have any of you or do you use a K&N air filter and with what results? The stock air filter i think is very restrictive. Your opinions would be appreciated. Thanks, Chris. |

I've got one installed and happy with it. More and aggressive noise underneath the hood. Combined with stage 1, dv valve and intake the engine runs faster. Happy beemer

Did you try out the filter without any other mods? Does it make any difference? @Sidewinder1970

i have an m135i with just with a bmc filter, installed it last week.
throttle response feels slightly better and my fuel economy improved very slightly( not sure if this was just due to my stock filter being extremely dirty) i cant hear any difference inside the car but from the outside theres a slight increase in turbo noise |

I have 116i, installed the K&N without any other upgrades - I felt a minor change (throttle and engine feels different when reaching high rpm).
But.. after installing the DV+ (still without any software) the changes are more noticeable. |
