    There is a lot of discussion here about BMC filters for the 550, but not about the 575. Has anyone tried these on a 575 and can anyone else shed light on advantages/disadvantages?

    Thanks

    I have them on my 575M and, frankly, I notice nothing different.

    That being said, if they may you "feel" like you have more HP + you can "hear" the difference + you've got +$200 buring a hole in your pocket, go for it.

    cgt- i considered putting them on my 575M until I found out you have to oil them. I do not like oil upstream of my MAF sensors, so no go. Same reason I do not use K&N filters. Just my own prejudice with nothing factual upon which to base it.

    You will get more induction roar from the BMC filters, but have no clue on HP gain, if any.

    Thanks guys, I will stick with standard. With the redesigned system over the 550 I think standard is good enough, my car certainly doesnt need any more power :)
