For the F5X generation, MINI stepped into a new era by equipping all models with BMW’s turbocharged B38 and B48 engines. More boost means more excitement—but you’d never know with the factory airbox in place. The stock intake keeps things quiet, dulled, and choked off, muting the turbo sounds and holding back the engaging character these engines are capable of delivering.

The ECS Luft-Technik Performance Intake System is designed to maximize efficiency, airflow, and induction sound, enhancing your driving experience while completely transforming your engine bay. This intake unlocks an unparalleled auditory experience by eliminating restrictive factory components, thereby freeing up the induction soundtrack for an exhilarating experience. Let your engine breathe!

At the heart of this system is a durable aluminum intake tube, finished in high-quality wrinkle black powdercoat for a premium finish. This intake pipe is 80mm in diameter, ensuring the induction tract is free of restriction and maximizing airflow. A proprietary, ECS-branded bracket is used to secure this pipe to the strut tower, providing a clean mounting solution with minimal movement or flex. To enhance induction noise, this intake system includes a conical air filter that features oiled media for optimal airflow.

Do we ship abroad ?

Yes we do, to almost anywhere in the world though remember the postage is often high when shipping anything bulky. Most bulky items we export will go by UPS so you can track the package online and could reach America within 48 hours providing its in stock !

However there are a few countries we do not ship to, some of these include: Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Russia, Nigeria, Macedonia, Syria, Ukraine, Lebanon.

Why is postage on bulky items to some countries expensive compared to some other companies ?

For both yours and our safety we use well known couriers such as DPD Local and UPS for shipping, then we know exactly where it is in the world at any time and we know its going to arrive safely. Shipping small items can be cheap, but items such as bodykits are expensive to ship - we have a very small margin on the postage fees merely to cover packaging. We can now ship using standard post on some items, however using all methods you may incur import charges when you receive the goods for which we cant be responsible for.
