Dinan Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake for BMW 335i xDrive E90 2009 to 2010
Unlock real, repeatable power and sharper throttle response on your BMW 3 Series with the Dinan Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake. Engineered for the 2009 to 2010 BMW 335i and 335i xDrive E90 sedan, this performance cold air intake feeds the 3.0 litre turbocharged inline six with a higher volume of cool, oxygen rich air. Expect stronger mid range punch, extended power into higher RPM, and that addictive induction sound enthusiasts want from a premium carbon fibre intake kit.
Designed as a direct replacement for the factory air box lid, the Dinan carbon fiber cold air intake adds a secondary carbon fibre intake tube that draws dense air from the lower grille, plus shielding around the conical filter to help keep heat soak at bay. Intake air temperatures are reduced by a full 40°F compared to the stock inlet, approximately 22°C, supporting more consistent performance on road and track.
