csl induction system

[Chris Doyle]

Is this a stupid quiestion or not? If you simply put a csl induction system on a standard e46m3 would it sound like a csl? I'm just on about the induction, not exhaust noise. I know the exhaust is totaly different.

cheers

yes you can, but..............

the mapping would have to be changed to whats known as alpha N type mapping. the reason for this is that with the csl airbox, you will have to do away with the original airmass sensor. so the engine ecu will have to calculate engine load via other sensors.

hope this helps

The reason nobody has done it is because it costs thousands for very little hp gain. I would suggest an exhaust and or a Gruppe M induction kit if it's noise you're after.

Bad luck chaps. My E36 Evo sounds as good as a CSL with just a Dave F induction kit

I would very nearly agree with that. It's not as hard as the CSL noise but it's a great sound nontheless! Love mine! Couple it with a scorpion back box and.... voila


(go to about 7 mins 30 ish for good outside noises!)

I'm sorry but I think you both need re-acquainting with what a CSL actually sounds like.

I have run on my previous M3 - a Dave F, Gruppe M and a Hamann Racing full Carbon Airbox which is similar to a CSL's; unlike the two previous which basically offer only a shield around a K&N filter and neither the Dave F or Gruppe M delivered a noise anywhere near to that of a CSL's. The Hamann Racing carbon airbox however was much better and very similar to the audible assault the CSL gives. Size matters!

Well I've not heard a CSL from behind the drivers wheel, but if it can manage to sound better than my Evo then fair play!

I still grin every day hearing that induction roar

What induction kit have you got? Mine's standard and pretty quiet.

Dave F custom. (on my E36)

Look on ebay under "hybrid induction"

Not sure if it fits the breadvan?
