In BMWs with the N55, the intake system is partially limited. The bottom portion is lightweight and great for feeding cold air to the intake, but the top portion is excessively restrictive. Working with some of the original equipment, this intake continues to utilize the bottom portion of OE ducting and heat shielding, but replaces the top with new high flow ducting and a performance filter. Extensive testing showed up to a 10+ HP gain to the wheels and allows for quicker turbo spool speed. Plus, this design gives you a great sound improvement, letting you hear both the intake and turbo spooling!
Installation and removal is extremely quick and easy, taking only 5 minutes in the driveway!

Unlock real induction efficiency with the ECS Tuning Luft-Technik Intake System. Designed specifically for the F10 N55 platform, this upgrade replaces the restrictive, sound-baffled factory upper airbox with an optimized, free-flowing intake tract. By removing internal air turbulence and reducing acoustic damping, this system delivers measurable airflow gains alongside the raw, mechanical acoustic feedback your turbocharged inline-six was built to produce!
From the factory, the N55 airbox prioritizes cabin quietness over maximum volumetric efficiency. The heavily-baffled airbox assembly chokes off induction sound and restricts total air volume under load. The Luft-Technik intake system rectifies these shortcomings by mating a smooth-bore silicone intake boot directly to a high-flow open-element filter. The result is stabilized air velocity entering the inlet pipe, improved transient throttle response, and crisp, audible turbo spool under load.
