BMW claims it will add 3hp.
Sound: a deeper growl when accelerating, noticeable even to non-car enthusiasts
Acceleration: felt easier, lighter, faster - but could be just the expectation of better performance leading to me feeling it.
Fuel consumption - appears to have improved it by approximately 0.2km/L for city driving (including running on city highways like DUKE) when using RON95, to roughly equivalent to fuel consumption when using RON97. Based on 341km of usage so far.

3 HP increase in Performance Air Intake is not a 'sudden' power you can feel...honestly. The pull comes in the midrange power band, where you can feel the pull or 'tarik' sensation from 3000-6000 RPM. Try it in manual gear setting and let the 2nd gear pull till 5000 RPM before changing to 3rd geAR. There u will see the difference between a normal air filter induction vs BMW Performance Air Filter. Of course there must be some BIG difference after paying almost RM3800!!!
As for fuel consumption, i must say thats subject to style of driving. If tekan more, how to save fuel? If drive like Pakcik, then of cost can save la.
Also u wrote that u were using Ron 95 for yr test run? I hope not bro...325i gotta run on Ron 97 lawei...no wonder no power la..hehe...
So wats the next Performance upgrade?? Lemme suggest...Rear BMW Performance exhaust/silencer, that will be a perfect match for the Performance Air Filter in front!
Cheers.
