Carb legal intake 2011 550i
I live in Cali and am looking for a carb legal intake to replace my stock one, not necessarily for more power but to replace all the plastic. anybody know of the best option, I know there is a DINAN but other than that one ?

You have two options, get what you want and switch it for the factory intake at smog-check time, or search for the pretty much unobtainium CARB certified intake. I had a Lincoln LS that had the same 3.9L V8 as the T-Bird. The K&N intake for the T-bird was CARB certified, but it wasn't certified for the Lincoln so was "for off-road use only." I had to reinstall the factory intake to pass smog. 'Twas a bit of a bother, but worth it.

I had Dinan parts on my car and everything passes through CA smog inspection.
Like I said above, go to your forum and talk to people who know about your car. |
