As my first post i would like to share my first 'performance mod' on my 2012 X5 35i. Some of you may know the X5 40d sold in Australia dual intake. I was able to obtain this type of intake and attach it to the air-box of my 35i with a 23 degree, 220mm long, and 100mm diameter silicon hose.

Herro, mines a 2013 35i and I was thinking of adding a cold air intake before but got some feedback from the folks here and they've said the current setup is already like a cold air intake and adding an aftermarket one may even decrease performance. Looking at my engine bay, I was actually wondering why there's another somewhat closed hole (pic below), looking at the 8Cyl/M, I can see that there's intakes. If you end up doing some type of split and making use of the extra hole, please let me know how it goes, really interest.
