Description
Upgrade your MINI Cooper's turbocharged engine with the Burger Motorsports (BMS) Billet Performance Intake, engineered to improve airflow, increase horsepower, enhance throttle response, and deliver a more aggressive turbocharger sound. Designed for MINI Cooper models equipped with B36, B38, B46, and B48 engines, this high-performance intake system delivers gains of up to 8 wheel horsepower (WHP) while improving overall engine responsiveness and turbocharger performance.
The BMS Plug-and-Play Performance Intake reduces the airflow restrictions found in the factory intake system by replacing its restrictive upper section with high-flow intake ducting and an inverted cone performance air filter. This design allows the turbocharger to draw in air more efficiently, resulting in faster turbo spool, sharper throttle response, and a more pronounced turbocharger induction sound under acceleration.
Unlike conventional aftermarket intake systems that require complete replacement of the factory airbox, the BMS Billet Performance Intake retains the beneficial components of the original MINI Cooper intake system, including the factory cold-air ducting and lightweight lower heat-shielding airbox. This configuration helps maintain the factory cold-air supply while improving airflow through the intake assembly.
Precision CNC-machined from billet aluminum and finished with a durable black anodized coating, the BMS intake provides excellent durability and a clean, performance-oriented appearance in the engine bay. The system includes a reusable and washable inverted cone high-flow performance air filter, providing long-term usability and simplified maintenance.
Designed for straightforward installation, this plug-and-play intake system can be installed in minutes without permanent modifications to the vehicle. Its fully reversible design allows the factory configuration to be restored if needed. Proudly made in the USA, the Burger Motorsports Billet Performance Intake is an excellent upgrade for MINI Cooper owners looking for improved airflow, additional horsepower, enhanced turbo response, and a more engaging driving experience.
