The stock system is pretty efficient, and if it weren't for a great deal on the intake I probably would still run the OEM system, since the MZ4 Coupe doesn't lack for power.

And the majority of the gains I felt were in the low-end of the torque curve, so for what I do with the MZ4 Coupe, it doesn't shine on the track. But for every day use, the low end of the torque is what we all live on, so in that regard, the benefits are "tangible."
