Description
Enhance the performance, airflow, and turbocharger sound of your BMW B46 or B48-powered vehicle with the RK-Tunes G-Series Front Mount Intake System. Designed and engineered in-house, this intake features a full 3.5-inch airflow path and premium 5-ply wire-reinforced silicone construction to deliver superior airflow compared to factory and competing aftermarket intake systems.
Unlike restrictive intake designs that reduce diameter through tight chassis areas, the RK-Tunes Front Mount Intake maintains maximum airflow while utilizing flexible reinforced silicone that easily routes through the available space. The internal wire reinforcement prevents the intake from collapsing under boost, ensuring consistent airflow and reliable performance in all driving conditions.
The increased intake volume and larger diameter help improve turbocharger efficiency, throttle response, and induction sound, allowing you to hear the turbo spool while supporting future performance upgrades and tuning modifications.
Installation is simple and straightforward, requiring no bumper removal and no removal of the factory V-brace, making it one of the easiest airflow upgrades available for G-Series BMW B46 and B48 applications.
