AS QUOTED FROM NORTHLOOP

"If you need any bmw inside info let me know as my best mate works for BMW and has had to replace 2 engines in CSL's now due to people removing the flap from the air intake, causing the head gasket to go!"

What do you reckon

I only down side to removing the flap allows water up the air duct in the bumper straight into the engine when pouring down.

Normal, you give it the beans in the dry allowing for the air flap to open.
