BMW Performance Intake Kits for BMW 1 Series

Full carbon fiber intake to increase flow, performance and aesthetics! Dual inlet design for maximized air flow while retaining the OEM+ fitment.

The most common N55 intake utilizes a short plastic tube and oversized cone filter; it is your job to have better taste than the common N55 owner. This carbon intake changes the whole image of the N55 engine while maintaining a flow of cool air and added induction noise. With a dual inlet design the engine bay retains its functionality while adding a second inlet to provide your engine with improved air flow and sound. To ensure the engine gets the coolest air possible the second inlet is located in the "sweet spot" on the cold side of the engine for the lowest intake air temps and most air flow possible. The cone filter features a bellmouth velocity stack filter that creates the satisfying flutter after letting of the throttle.

Our Turner Carbon Fiber Intakes start with a 3D scan of the factory intake and engine bay. Engineers use the 3D imaging of the chassis to design the intake in SolidWorks modeling software. Using a Flow Bench, the Intake is then airflow tested against the factory intake, to ensure optimal airflow improvement against stock. The final product is a beautiful and functional Carbon Fiber Intake, CAD designed for perfect integration with the OEM inlet ducting and stock mounting locations and proven to flow better than factory.

Key Benefits:

Increased flow over the factory intake
Carbon fiber airbox and intake tube with gloss clear coat for UV protection
CAD-Designed for perfect Integration
Custom high flow air filter specially designed to to pair with the carbon fiber airbox

Design:

- Carbon Fiber Intake Tube

Carbon inlet tube featuring a smoother interior without corrugations for a smooth flow path.
Integrated carbon flange allows secure mounting of the tube to the carbon air boxes.
Intake tube is manufactured using 2x2 twill weave carbon fiber for a great look in the engine bay.
Gloss finish clear coat for UV protection.
4-ply reinforced silicone coupler and 6061-T6 black anodized aluminum flange that utilizes the factory o-ring and retaining clip.
- Air Box

Carbon fiber airboxes are manufactured using 2X2 twill weave carbon fiber and protected with a gloss finish clear coat for UV resistance to match the intake tube.
Air box mounts in stock location with supplied hardware.
- Air Filter

Conical hi-flow reusable air filter; featuring 8 ply oiled cotton gauze construction to maximize filtration efficiency.
Bellmouth (velocity stack) filter flange inlet to reduce turbulence in order to maximize flow.
Product Development:

Turner N55 Intake System was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer and rigorous long term product testing. Performance data metrics are collected utilizing Mustang AWD 500 SE in ground dyno and in-house Superflow SF-750 Flowbench.

The ECS Kohlefaser Luft-Technik (Carbon Fiber Air Technology) intake for the 135/335/535 is a beautifully crafted dual-cone intake with a glossy carbon fiber enclosure. Developed in-house using ECS's chassis dyno and state of the art laser scanning and 3D CAD technology, the N54 carbon airbox is a direct replacement for the stock system. Laser scanning allows ECS to produce a finished product that is a perfect fit to the engine bay. All tubing is also made from carbon fiber with each piece designed for optimal flow. The carbon fiber sandwiches a special heat-blocking fiberglass core, insulating the air box from engine bay heat. All of this combines to produce more power and torque over a wider RPM range - up to 13ft-lbs and 18hp when combined with a Cobb software tune, FMIC, and exhaust. And it looks amazing every time you open the hood.

135/335/535 ECS Carbon intake features -

• Designed and engineered using CAD technology for optimal flow and fitment
• Dyno proven power and torque gains backed with real-world testing
• Washable/reusable high flow cotton filters (pre-oiled)
• Stainless steel hardware
• Direct replacement for stock air box; integrates seamlessly with stock intake piping
• Beautiful and functional carbon fiber/e-fiberglass construction
