aFe Magnum FORCE Stage-2 Cold Air Intake - BMW 525i/530i (E60) - 2.5L/3.0L
The aFe Magnum FORCE Stage-2 suits the early 2004-2005 E60 BMW 525i and 530i with the 2.5L or 3.0L six. A one-piece black powder-coated 16-gauge steel heat shield keeps engine heat off the filter, and a heat-insulating moulded plastic tube replaces the factory intake tract. A 3-angle adaptor speeds the air into the tube.
The 6 in (152mm) cone filter has an inverted top and uses Pro 5R oiled media. aFe's dyno testing shows up to +5.2 kW (+7 hp) and +9 Nm and 45% more airflow than the factory intake.
Note: Suits the 2004-2005 E60 525i and 530i only (2.5L and 3.0L six). Installation by a professional is recommended.
