Since 1999, aFe (Advanced FLOW Engineering) has been developing and manufacturing high quality accessories in their facility in Corona, California. Starting with air filters and intake systems, and now expanding into exhaust systems, suspension components, tuning modules, and more, aFe products are a great way to improve the performance of your BMW without altering its fundamental character. Owned by a BMW enthusiast, aFe power is recognized the world over as a leader in quality performance products for your BMW.
This is a drop-in stock replacement aFe performance air filter that installs into your BMW's factory airbox. This particular filter fits the following BMWs:
E30 M3 (1988-1991)
E30 318i (1984-1985)
E28 528e (1984-1985) and 535i/535is (1985-1988)
E12 5 series, All (1975-1981) - including 528i, 530i, 533i
E23 7 series, All except 745i (1977-1987) - including 730i, 733i, 735i, L7
E24 6 series, All except M6 (1976-1989) - incl. 630CS, 633Csi, 635CSi
This version uses aFe's highest flowing filter media, which uses a lightly oil gauze to filter out dirt and particulates, while allowing more air to flow to the intake. For the best flowing filter, with the best performance gain, we always recommend this standard aFe filter media (often called "Pro5R ", which has a blue pre-oiled filter media). We also carry this filter in the "ProDry" grey filter media, which is oil-free for only slightly less performance and no maintenance.
Bring your aFe filter back to life with a Restore kit from aFe. Included is filter cleaner & replacement oil. These air filter oils is designed to not harm MAF sensors, while allowing the filter to catch as much debris as possible.

Introducing the do88 Intake System for BMW 320i and 330i G20 – Engineered for Maximum Performance!
At do88, we understand that filtration, airflow, and heat management are crucial when designing an intake system for turbocharged engines.
Our intake system is designed to provide the turbo with excellent filtration, an optimized airflow path, and consistently low inlet temperatures. One of the key challenges with the B48/B46 engine is the intake system’s location near the exhaust manifold, which generates intense heat and causes rapid heat soak.
High intake air temperatures (IATs) can significantly reduce engine performance, as hot, less dense air makes it harder for the turbo to build boost efficiently. To address this, our fully sealed intake system minimizes heat exposure and maintains low IATs. However, fully sealed systems can face airflow restrictions due to the factory airbox’s single air feed. We resolved this by adding a secondary air feed and incorporating a heat shield into the airbox design to block heat from the exhaust manifold. The large 7” airbox ensures ample airflow around the filter and accommodates strut braces.
We replaced the stock intake hose with a high-flow 102mm (4”) mandrel-bent aluminum pipe paired with a custom silicone hose. The system also features a custom-designed air filter with tightly woven cotton gauze for exceptional filtration. The filter is washable, reusable, and built for long-lasting performance.
Unlike the stock air filter box and intake hose, which are designed with silencers to reduce turbo and induction noise, the do88 system eliminates these elements. This allows for a more pronounced and engaging turbo spool and induction sound, giving you a truly dynamic driving experience.
