Description
Upgrade your BMW's factory intake system with the Ramair Performance Pleated Induction Kit, engineered specifically for front-wheel-drive (FWD) BMW models equipped with the 1.5L B38 turbocharged engine. This direct-fit intake system replaces the restrictive OEM airbox with a high-flow design that improves airflow, throttle response, turbo efficiency, and induction sound.
The system features a 76mm intake diameter for increased airflow, a black powder-coated aluminum intake pipe with an integrated MAF housing, and a black powder-coated heat shield that helps reduce heat soak by directing cooler air to the intake filter. The result is improved engine breathing, quicker turbo response, and a more aggressive induction note.
At the core of the kit is a high-flow pleated performance air filter, designed to maximize airflow while maintaining excellent filtration. The washable and reusable filter can be easily serviced using the Ramair Filter Maintenance Kit (CK-003) for long-lasting performance.
The kit includes all required mounting hardware and detailed installation instructions, making installation quick and straightforward.
