A closer look at one step of the development of our latest release, the BMW G8X Intakes: Flowbench testing 🌬️👨‍💻📈 Swipe through to the end for the results 👉 Spoiler alert: the AMS offering came out on top 🥇

To quantify airflow gains with absolute precision, our AMS SnailWorks Engineering Team ran the OEM intake, multiple leading competitor systems, and the AMS G8X S58 Intakes through our state-of-the-art MAF-based flowbench 👨‍🔬 Using MoTeC instrumentation to capture real-time pressure and airflow data, each intake was tested under identical, repeatable conditions that simulate the airflow demands of a ~600whp S58 engine. The results were unmistakable 🏁

The factory intake struggled, showing –2.15 psi of depression on the right intake tract, a clear sign of significant restriction 🚫 Competitor systems performed marginally better but still exhibited notable pressure drop 📉 In contrast, the AMS S58 Intake System demonstrated a dramatic improvement with only –1.05 psi of depression on the right intake tract at the same airflow level—representing up to a 48% reduction in restriction versus OEM ✅ At any given pressure drop, the AMS system consistently flowed more air than both stock and competitor offerings, making it the least restrictive intake solution in the test group 🏆 The AMS S58 Intakes also delivered nearly identical airflow results across both banks, demonstrating how well-matched the system is as a paired set—an advantage that promotes balanced engine performance and more consistent, predictable ECU calibration on each bank 💯

The data speaks for itself: if you’re seeking uncompromised airflow and maximum horsepower potential, the AMS Performance BMW G8X M2/M3/M4 S58 Intakes stand alone at the top ☝️
