Description
Upgrade the factory intake system on your BMW with the Project Gamma Silicone Intake & Filter Kit, engineered for select BMW twin-turbo V8 applications, including the M5 F90, M8 F91/F92/F93, M850i, and 7 Series G70/G73.
Designed to improve airflow to the turbochargers while providing increased durability and a clean, performance-oriented engine bay appearance, this intake system features 4-layer reinforced silicone construction, an oil-resistant inner lining, and aluminum hose connections.
The Project Gamma intake uses a large 3.5-inch internal diameter and a smoother airflow path compared with the factory intake system. By maintaining a consistent diameter through the engine bay curves, the system is designed to support increased airflow to the turbochargers while helping improve throttle response, turbo spool, acceleration, and overall engine performance.
High-Flow 3.5-Inch Intake Design
The Project Gamma intake system features a 3.5-inch inner diameter throughout the intake piping, providing a large and consistent airflow path to the turbochargers.
Unlike intake piping that narrows through bends, the Project Gamma design maintains its large internal diameter around the radiator support and factory engine-bay curves. This helps maximize airflow while retaining the flexibility required for proper fitment.
The increased airflow capacity makes the system suitable for both stock vehicles and modified, tuned, or high-performance BMW builds.
Reinforced 4-Layer Silicone Construction
Each intake pipe is manufactured using 4-layer reinforced silicone designed to provide strength, flexibility, and durability.
The reinforced construction helps the intake piping maintain its shape under demanding operating conditions and helps resist collapse when exposed to increased boost-related engine-bay pressures.
An oil-resistant inner lining provides additional durability and makes the intake suitable for the conditions commonly encountered in modern turbocharged BMW engines.
Aluminum Hose Connections
The intake system incorporates aluminum hose connections to provide secure connections between the intake components.
The combination of reinforced silicone piping and aluminum connectors creates a durable assembly designed for high-performance applications while maintaining a clean and professional appearance.
Improved Airflow & Performance
The larger internal diameter and smoother intake path are designed to increase airflow to the turbochargers compared with the factory intake system.
Improved airflow characteristics can support:
- Increased airflow to the turbochargers
- Improved throttle response
- Faster turbo spool
- Stronger acceleration
- Increased horsepower potential when supporting modifications are present
- Improved overall engine performance
Actual performance gains may vary depending on vehicle configuration, tuning, supporting modifications, and operating conditions.
Plug-and-Play Installation
The Project Gamma intake system is designed as a direct replacement for the factory intake, providing a straightforward installation without permanent vehicle modifications.
The system is plug-and-play and DIY friendly, with installation typically taking approximately one hour using basic hand tools.
No cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications are required. Required installation hardware is included with the kit.
