The more I read about this the more it sounds like the BMW design is 'good enough'. It doesn't look like any sizable impact with the Dinan product at all. And, even the current filters being swapped doesnt look like much impact either - looks like BMC makes a version (K&N doesnt).

Even with an exhaust and stage 1 tune, the stock item might do the trick - just want to be sure Im not missing something.
Both BMS and K&N make a set but both are smaller than the F85. They are actually the same size as the F15 which is why I went with OEM F85 over them for my 50i
