CTS Turbo Intake install and quick take
I have a BMS intake off of my 235i that I was going to put on my M2. I see where basically everyone gets a CEL. I looked around and found CTS. They do an intake kit with an MAF housing that mimics the shape of the OEM BMW one. I was going to wait till I had my 1200 mile checkup, but I couldn't help myself anymore. So I installed it today.
Install on a scale of 1-10, it was a 2. The BMS was even easier because it is a little less involved. Quality of parts seems quite good, and looks pretty nice once installed. Although I'm not too big on big logos, it is still tasteful IMO. Drive, no CEL but I only went for about a 10 mile drive. Sounds great, if you like to hear whats going on under the hood. Whistles and pops are louder. Anytime I emailed the CTS guys with questions, they responded quickly and politely. My experience with them so far has been excellent. I'll update the CEL status as it goes |

CTS Turbo is very nice! I'm running their FMIC + F30_SixSpeed GTBrandon badbread and a few more. Intake was on sale a few weeks ago for $280 I know wakeofdeath & m2s63tu ordered it.
For installation see his guide http://*************/335i-cts-intake/ Told @vapeconj twin fed they should get the FMIC

wakeofdeath & m2s63tu have no reported CEL on CTS intake
There are a few more guys on the F30 335 running it longer since last year no issues reported on their part from my chat with them.

You're very welcome, glad it helped! I've since disconnected my MAF but prior to that I got no CEL that I had with the stock airbox.

Yes, running a JB4 now and had some rough idle, surging issues with the MAF plugged in. BMS suggested disconnecting the MAF and since haven't had any issues at all.
