Thanks for a great product. Honestly I don't know what exactly I'm hearing, the intakes or the HFCs. The combo together sounds awesome though! I can't wait to put an exhaust on to complete the symphony.

stunning results.
is the car's native tune so flexible that it exploits airflow/backpressure advantages so fully? makes me wonder if a tune would be necessary at all.

either way, bolt ons have the z in m3 territory, power wise. wow!

My hopes are that a tune will provide pretty significant increases as well, making it a very necessary mod for me.

throttle response is usually made sharper and more linear with a chip-- usually worth it for me just for that. if a tune can more fully take advantage of intake and outflow, the z will be truly beastly.
