I just installed the new BMP/ProMINI intake. The install wasn't too bad, took a little longer trying to position it just right so that there wouldn't be any interferences with the bonnet.
OK to the good stuff, Performance. WOW!! Stumble on hard acceleration is gone. Lag with the AC on is gone. Stick your foot into it and Drago growls and goes! Butt-O-Meter says that the advertised 8+ hp gain is probably close. The engine now pulls nicely from down low on up to red line. Very linear now. Before it would come alive at around 4k and up, now it's alive from 2.5k with the same kick in the pants. Was this a worthwhile upgrade, YOU BET! All of you MC owners should take a good look at this one. Price? List $198 + shipping, but if you talk to the nice people at ProMINI they might give you a 10% discount.
Now to find the right manifold, race cat and exhaust...
