K&N 57-1001 Cold Air Intake for BMW E46 330i 330Ci 330Xi — Overview
The K&N 57-1001 is a complete cold air intake kit designed to fit the E46 330i, 330Ci, and 330Xi from 2001 to 2005, all running the M54 inline-six. It replaces the factory airbox and intake tract with a larger-diameter tube and K&N's reusable oiled cotton gauze filter, pulling air from lower in the engine bay where temps are cooler than what the stock setup sees. The idea is straightforward - more air volume, less restriction, modest gains in throttle response and sound.
