I just put an open air filter on my M5..
Itr seems as though my motor is running hotter?

And I dont really feel a difference.

Is there some kind of enclosure I need to ensure that only cold air gets in, or should I just go back to the old style air filter???

accepting their decisions, even if it goes against what you want.

the open filters are only good for sound...they don´t add horsepower.

You should put a vent, pipe...something, that makes the filter breathe cold air all the time. otherwise you´ll have less performance if the weather is really hot.

Hi Bilal

The second possibility is to fabricate yourself an Airbox

I think you can get something like that on the internet. Shops from the US got these Parts, or Ebay.com. I made it by myself, it looks the same works the same way but a lot cheaper

ECIS or Jim Conforti sell those CAI´s ;-)

I think that they will also sell you just the heat shield.

That is if you dont want to fabricate youre own :)
