The S55's factory intake system is a major bottleneck, muting its aggressive twin-turbocharged soundtrack and restricting performance. Oversized airboxes, restrictive paper filters, and charcoal pre-filters choke airflow, limiting power and induction noise. The result? An underwhelming driving experience that doesn’t do the twin-turbo-six justice.

ECS aims to solve this issue with their Luft-Technik Performance Intake System—engineered to optimize airflow, amplify induction sound, and completely transform your engine bay. By replacing the factory restrictions with a high-flow design, this system unleashes the S55’s true potential, delivering sharper throttle response, enhanced turbo efficiency, and an intoxicating intake note.

At its core, the Luft-Technik intake is comprised of dual aluminum inlet tubes, designed for both strength and function. Constructed from 6061 aluminum and finished in a wrinkle black powder coat, these tubes are built to withstand high engine bay temperatures and extreme conditions. Using advanced CAD modeling, ECS engineers optimized the tubing shape to ensure perfect MAF sensor scaling, maintaining factory AFR (air-to-fuel ratio) for peak reliability and efficiency. The unique ovular profile maximizes clearance around critical engine components while allowing for the largest possible inlet diameter. The crossover tube features standoffs for secure heat exchanger hose mounting and a CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum MAF flange and vacuum port, ensuring seamless integration with factory connections.

To prevent heat soaking and maintain consistent performance, our intake system incorporates precision-cut aluminum heat shields. Finished in a durable wrinkle black powder coat, the heat shields feature a rubber edge trim that seals against the hood, preventing engine bay heat from infiltrating the air intake tract. This results in lower intake air temperatures (IATs), improved air density, and overall improved performance even under demanding conditions.

Key Features:

Aluminum Inlet Tubes 6061 aluminum construction for durability and heat resistance Wrinkle black powder coat for a sleek, OEM+ finish Optimized ovular shape for maximum clearance and airflow Gradual transitions eliminate sharp bends for smoother intake flow MAF scaling matched to factory specs for precise AFR control CNC-machined 6061-T6 MAF flange and vacuum port for OEM fitment Aluminum Heat Shields One-piece aluminum construction for durability and heat isolation Wrinkle black powder coat for a stealthy appearance and heat resistance Rubber edge molding creates a perfect seal against the hood, blocking hot air Mounts to factory locations for hassle-free installation High-Flow Dual-Cone Air Filters 8-ply cotton gauze construction for superior filtration and flow Bellmouth 3" flange inlet minimizes turbulence and maximizes efficiency Enhanced induction noise for an aggressive turbocharged soundtrack Installation & Support:

Improve your BMW's engine performance with the ECS Exact-Fit High Flow Oiled Air Filter designed for S63 and S55 engines. By replacing your factory air filter with this high-flow oiled filter, you'll experience enhanced airflow, resulting in better engine breathing, increased power throughout the power band, and improved fuel economy. Unlike stock paper filters, this reusable filter offers higher flow, ensuring an immediate performance boost. Choose between oiled and dry filters, each offering unique benefits. While oiled filters provide better airflow, they require regular maintenance, including oiling after cleaning. On the other hand, dry filters offer easier maintenance without the need for oiling. Both options outperform OE paper filters and are reusable, saving you money in the long run. Key features include direct OEM fitment, higher flow than OEM filters, and reusable design, making it an ideal performance upgrade for your BMW.

Key Features:

• Direct replacement for the OEM filter
• Higher flow than OEM
