Could anyone speak to this?

Is there a z4m airbox? Isn't it just "S54". Smg vs manual, ofc.DD: /// 2011.5 Jerez/bamboo E90 M3 · DCT · Slicktop · Instagram

The plenum is the same. The part that houses the filter is different. I haven't tried, but by looking at pics, my guess is that it won't fit. Looks too big.2002 Topasblau M3 - Coupe - 6MT - Karbonius CSL Airbox - MSS54HP Conversion - Kassel MAP - SSV1 - HJS - PCS Tune - Beisan - MK60 Swap - ZCP Rack - Nogaros - AutoSolutions - 996 Brembos - Slon - CMP - VinceBar - Koni - Eibach - BlueBus - Journal

Someone on FB is selling (for cheap) the S54 airbox that fits on a Z4M. I have an ex-SMG car and would like to have the reservoir-less intake. Also have the Karb intake, but not really interested in installing at the moment.2002 Topasblau M3 - Coupe - 6MT - Karbonius CSL Airbox - MSS54HP Conversion - Kassel MAP - SSV1 - HJS - PCS Tune - Beisan - MK60 Swap - ZCP Rack - Nogaros - AutoSolutions - 996 Brembos - Slon - CMP - VinceBar - Koni - Eibach - BlueBus - Journal

Just realized the old thread I bumped was for the Karbonus Intake, so wanna repost here, sorry:
Sorry to bump a slightly old thread. But I wanted to make a post to deal with a lot of the conflicting and maybe outdated info out there.
I'm installing a Turner Box on a 2005 SMG car w/ MAF. First time doing this, but very eager to try. I don't want to buy anything unnecessary for my set-up. Including the ECU stuff is this all I need to get the car on the road? Prices obv don't include sales tax.
Must needs:
- CSL Airbox ($1583.75)
- 6x 60-80mm Band Hose Clamp (9mm) (included w/ CSL Airbox)
- 6x 50-70mm Band Hose Clamp (9mm) (included w/ CSL Airbox)
- Valve Bracket (included w/ CSL Airbox)
- CSL Air Filter ($179.95)
- Kassel MSS54HP CSL Conversion ($235)
- CSL MAP Sensor ($125)
- IAT Relocation Kit ($119.90)
- CSL IAT Sensor ($37.43)
- SMG Expansion Tank ($159.95)
- SMG Expansion Tank Bracket ($29.95)
Don't need / optional:
- CSL Dipstick
- CSL Dipstick tube
- Silicone Throttle Boots
- CSL Air Shut-off Valve
- Since my car is a 2005 it has a MSS54HP so the conversion kit is enough aka don't need to upgrade from a MSS54 to MSS54hp?
- My car was manufactured exactly 10/04 so I can reuse the throttle boots (Airbox kit comes with a new set though)
- I can modify my existing shut off valve by re-using two male connectors on each ends and replacing the hardline with a soft vacuum line
- I can bend/move the stock dipstick.
Am I missing anything?
Thanks!
