BMCs and removing the charcoal liners were worth about ~10whp on the S55, similar to what you see aftermarket intakes claiming.

We'd expect to see the same from this platform (S58). We've got a shipment coming in early next week, if someone local wants to purchase and dyno - we'd be happy to share results.

IMHO - wait until after 1200 miles, then install since dealers will replace the filters under the service. You won't want them tossing your brand new BMCs.
