I think I was one of the first ones that got them straight from Mpire performance, he had it on his x3m! I’m so happy and love so much they way they sound and perform!! Much needed upgrade from the crap stock filter box! Thanks Rktunes!
Spoke with Jordan on the phone last week and he was super helpful. The intake shipped with the 2 brackets, and I am going to have it installed tomorrow. Will try to circle back with post install impressions.
I doubt you’ll get any performance out of the intake. As the video title suggests, this is about the sound. And it does sound awesome with the intake! If you expect more performance, install a down-pipe.
Jordan, please explain further on the cover install. I received the brackets today and don’t understand where the insulation tape and washers go. - Does the cover just get held on only by the strut brace? Explain further please. Thanks so much!
Yeah thats my concern too...these filters are open to all the water being kicked up off of other vehicles. How do the filters not get soaked from that?
@@firstboost on my second set of filters now on an X4M competition. Once again, absolutely zero issues driving in Florida downpours in traffic on the freeway. They would have to be submerged be able to suck that much water up into the plenum. it non-issue.
They are. Here is a link www.rktunes.com/products/g-series-x3-m40i-front-mount-intake?variant=40452429054057¤cy=USD&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIoonP5Kem_QIVqSmtBh1RZATwEAQYASABEgL_IPD_BwE

How did you install the brackets ?
yea pic of the brackets
Why do you remove the hose clamps with a flathead and not a 6/7mm over the top of it? It takes away all risk of it getting worn/rounded
You should do a video like tuning a stock x3m vs how many gains you can get it with the intake.

How does this work in the rain? Won’t it pull in water?
I think the water is too heavy to be sucked in, but still having wet filters eh idk 🫠

I live in the northeast. Will these cause a problem in the winter and super rainy days
Yep!
TURBO Sounds amazingg
If you add the intake does it affect the warranty?
Would LOVE To get this for my 22 X3M Comp, but living in Southwest Florida, I am worried about Hydrolock in our torrential downpours!
You won’t have a problem
@@Imesswithcars Confirmed. Zero issues driving through FL downpours!

@@1dumpedviperik it’s late but ever had issues with car wash ?
Sounds like it’s sneezing in the drive by 😂
Are there any realistic horsepower gain with these?
so you don’t need a tune for this mod correct, you can do this intake with stock S58?
Will these be available for 2022 X3 40i ?

@@RKTUNES Awesome! But do you have any install videos? Sound Videos? Any Cutting modification required?
Will this void my warranty?
What if it rains ?
You're SOL, bad design! Avoid!
@@funfun8095you're clueless lol
@@BloodHound5.0 Been there, done that. Experience would say otherwise, but stay brainwashed. Shows your intelligence and experience.
What does it sound like from inside the car? Is there any difference
Have your intake temperature actually dropped tho?
When are you all updating the intake to include the engine cover?
We already have. We just can’t add info to old videos. All customers / shops that ordered through our website have been sent updated parts. We tried to reach all people local too.
Nice !!!
Any timeline for F95 x5m?
Not bad. Some parts seem like they could use some more design tweets. Nice work!
Do you have one for the g20 330?
Bro thanks for the intake I get it it amazing 😍 I love it sound crazy
What if it’s your daily and you have to drive in the rain? Not good for that I am assuming?
Any update on how the intake performs with water?!
@@champaneri16 I never got a response and don’t know anyone with this intake set up! But I love the look and sound!!
I need a set for my x3m Lci
How is when rain a lot, there is a problem using this intake?
No
Do you make a front mount intake for the X3 m40i? Or will the m340i one work?
We have a specific setup to fit x3 m40i ! It is different from the m340 intake
Do you guys sell a tune for this car yet ? If so how do I buy it?
Run!
rain wont get in ?
This sounds awesome, but it will drive me crazy though after a long period of use on my daily. Great on a weekend car though.
Probably wouldn’t be noticeable on a daily unless you’re beating it lol
How we can order the intake
From our website. Rktunes.com it is in stock ( with brackets )
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, Awesome install !
I could not see anyone using these or for what purpose. Looks like something bolted on a mid 90s honda from Autozone
This guy must not have thought about rainy icy weather! Sucking all the in, will be BAD!
What if it’s your daily and you have to drive in the rain?
just can't submerge
Tune Wills 135. You won't.
😳
butchering a perfectly new car
