K&N air filter

ada yg tau gak kelebihan & kekurangan k&n air filter? katanya lbh bagus drpd air filter standar ya? hrgnya brp sih klo utk e36...gw sempet nyari tp blm ketemu utk e36, ada yg tau dimana tempatnya? tks ya

klo untuk kelebihan n kekurangan blm ngasih gambaran, blm pernah nyoba.. hehe..
tapi klo soal harga untuk perbandingan coba cek di ebay, mulai dari $10 - 30..
untuk kondisi baru..

niat mo pasang bro??

iya mau pasang krn bisa lifetime dan performa mesin lbh baik...gw dah dpt hrgnya, dari 3 tempat en hrgnya bervariasi antara 720ribu - 800 ribu....ada yg ngasitau pake JFC air filter aja, hrgnya sekitar 300-500 ribuan...kualitasnya sedikit dibwh k&n tp bisa lifetime jg...

wah mantap.. jgn lupa klo dah pasang di share disini ya..
plus DIY nya klo bisa, sapa tau ada yg mo pasang juga..

ternyata k&n air filter yg gw dpt di jakarta bukan utk tipe e36 M52 tp utk yg 318 & e46...akhirnya gw order ke USA langsung lewat internet di http://www.turnermotorsport.com/ ..dia spesialis aksesoris BMW di USA sono, di ebay sempet gw cek lbh murah sekitar US& 7 tp dari Taiwan, jd gw gak yakin...gw order ke USA dgn shipping cost utk 2 hari kerja, jatuhnya total jadi US$ 82 (hrg shipping cost variatif tergantung kita mau berapa lama nyampenya, berhubung gw gak sabaran orgnya gw ambil paket yg agak cepet, dan hrgnya ternyata hampir sama klo di jkt)...dan datangnya 5 hari kemudian (kepotong sabtu+minggu)....kode K&N air filter replacement utk e36 M50/52 adalah 33-2070

setelah gw pasang, ternyata hasilnya cukup ok....yg gw rasain:
1. Mesin lbh halus
2. Gas jd lbh entengan
3. Lebih terasa bgt manfaatnya di rpm > 4000, lebih maksimal tarikannya dan lebih efisien dlm ngegas, rpm menjadi lbh rendah utk mencapai speednya
4. Karena lbh efisien otomatis bbm jd sedikit lbh irit, gw sempet tes..sblm pake k&n bbm 1:7.4, setelah pake jd 1:7.8 (dgn rute perjalanan & macet2an yg hampir sama)
5. Yg pasti juga lbh irit di kantong krn k&n ini pemakaiannya seumur hidup, yg penting jgn lupa dibersihkan dgn cairan pembersihnya (mesti beli lagi, di jkt hrgnya 300ribuan) di pemakaian minimal tertentu. Kalau dr pabriknya bilang bisa 50.000 km br dibersihkan tp klo di jkt yg byk debu & sering macetttttt gw sih sarankan minimal 30.000

ya begitulah teman2 hehe...gak rugi & gak nyesel deh beli k&n...biar mahal tp pemakaian seumur hidup

untuk instalasi nya bisa di share disini gak mas?? thx..

cuma cabut filter udara aslinya terus pasang k&n filter...gak ngerubah apa2 kok krn ini air filter replacement

If you have the money, why didn't you go for the K&N induction kit. They are made to improve performance (horsepower and torque). Anybody any experience?

Yes it increase more power & torque, many people already change it...but it takes too much money & change standard installation from the factory...depend on ourself, is it necessary or not...

is it useful for daily use?? the factory engine already gives the driver prety big power, gives good performance also...

Some people never have had enough ...

Lots of HP is nice...

sorry, never meant for being rude ...

A great hp is a must for a speed lover isn't it..
Thanks for sharing anyway. I'll buy one after other things.

Keep sharing Stan ...

No, you weren't rude at all my friend
It depends very much on the type of BMW, but my guess is that one should be able to get the induction kits below 1jt (type I) and around 2jt (type II) excl shipping that is.

Bro,

Speeding is very nice......
The problem is where I can speed up my BMW which can run for more than 200KpH in long Kick down????
the street is not as good as we need,also the people behavior specially for Motorcycle....and city bus....huft....
I prefer to make my E30 in good performance, so once I need it to pass some Funny car like Japanese car I can get it...
What a Great technologies in BMW.....so.....Kick the throttle up....and get your adrenalin pass your head....
