On turbocharged motors, the intake piping is put under constant pressure while the engine is running, and has to hold that pressure without leaking. Unfortunately the smallest amount of damage or defect on the intake hoses and the pressure can cause a leak, leaving you without proper boost pressure.  Replace your leaking pressure pipe and stop loosing boost.

M7 Speed Silicone Intake Hose for MINIs with N14 Turbocharged Engine

Upgrade your MINI's performance with the newly developed M7 Speed 100% silicone four-ply fiber-reinforced intake hose. Designed as a direct OE replacement part for all MINIs equipped with the N14 turbocharged engine, this hose offers superior durability, improved airflow, and virtually unlimited service life. Not only does it enhance performance, but it also adds a striking under-hood WOW factor that MINIs desperately need.

Unlike other hoses on the market, the M7 hose retains the OE PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) connection location and size, allowing for seamless installation without any modifications. This ensures no disruption to the PCV electrical connection, eliminating the risk of triggering a Check Engine Light (DTC code). The kit includes three properly sized stainless steel clamps and easy-to-follow installation instructions. Please note that this part only fits MINIs equipped with the N14 turbocharged engine, with one large PCV vent hose connected from the intake hose to the cam cover.
