There is a 5-10% increase in sound but not rice at all... it sounded it means business

Btw i am feeling that the ecu is starting to adapt on the coops and BMC airfilter as it feels more torquier and responsive than this morning (i drove a total of 70 miles)...

So when can we buy this?

And I'm going on the assumption that M intakes are the same as non M intakes so this scoop would work for any Z4.

BimmerZealot · 02-05-2008, 02:35 PM

I did some research on RealOEM.com and found the Z4M and Z4 Non-M Intake Duct and scoop are identical in part number, so yes the scoop should fit both the Z4M or the Z4 Non-M.

DiscoZ · 02-05-2008, 07:23 PM

Group-buy?

I believe that "It will fit" doesn't imply "It will work".

laidback · 02-05-2008, 11:59 PM

Good news I just got of the phone with Eloy (RPI) and the scoops will be ready sooner than expected

and also I worked out a deal for a free install if they will make an appointment and go to RPI ...: sounds good? and again I highly recommend getting the BMC filter so you get a better deal...

He will email me the grp buy price and I will post it tomorrow

Zeddy4Me · 02-06-2008, 12:02 AM

chris... you liike my flyby the other night?? hehehe... BLEW the G35 away !!! Yeah, wheres my scoops!!!

laidback · 02-06-2008, 12:27 AM

Yup...I was right behind him and he made the right decision not to mess with two angry Z4's

..Scoops will be ready Very soon...

For us guys on the other side of the continent, will we get some perk like free shipping if we can't have it installed at RPI?

I'm rather eager to fit this on my NON-M Z...

DiscoZ · 02-06-2008, 04:19 PM

I am rather eager to try these on my MZ4C, also on the other side of the continent!

laidback · 02-06-2008, 08:04 PM

I'm sure Eloy will throw in something for your guys (as i told him about it)
