My best Virtual dyno showed 461whp on smoothing 5 with just 10 liters of pure 100% ethanol mixed with 30 liters 95RON. Even if those numbers seem a bit optimistic, I'm very happy. I will be running the E50 or E60 map in spring and summer so will be even better.

Can you share a picture of your mod so the less imaginative of us can understand your awesome, picture book style?

If you approach this as a max air flow capacity problem, and you think your DCI's air flow capacity is being maxed out then yes, two extra intakes would help to alleviate your air flow restriction. I don't know how much air the engine is sucking in at red line, or how much flow DCI offer, but it's a place to start for knowing if more is needed or not, though you'd think that any DCI would have more than enough flow capacity or flow rate to feed the N54 car all the way to Redline. Does yours?


Also consider that if the smaller filters have more air resistance(less flow), they won't be used until after the DCI filters have maxed their flow capacity. Air, like water, will always take the least restrictive path
