If you want to try the Pure inlet, I have the one I tried to use and will be happy to send it over at a reasonable cost.
The DV is a quick mod if you have the turbo out of the car. Otherwise you're going to have to drain coolant + remove water pump to get access to all the bolts.

I may try the pure inlet because I intend to route the intake to the front of the car just behind the kidney grills, still doing some research on that. I saw a video where a guy did the DV+ on his 435i and he just removed the bracket for the water pump which gave him enough room to sneak the DV in and out.
