For this application we have opted for large cross sectional turbo inlet tube with integrated MAF and a smooth non concentric expanding inlet tube which with silicone couplers. The expanding large volume inlet tube acts like a large velocity stack which accelerates the airflow and is much larger than the small and short velocity stack fitted to the internals of the oem intake. The result of the smoother airflow from our inlet tube is a far smoother lower rpm torque availability from the engine vastly improving drivability. Throttle response is immediately felt to be smoother and more eager.
The inlet tube is attached via a stainless steel v band clamp to the air filter housing which attaches directly to the OEM front air feed and has a frontal opening facing towards the headlight.
By placing the air filter in front of the inlet tube we achieve the largest velocity stack ever seen for the N55 and which also has the best laminar flow. It is important to note that we have painstakingly opted for the largest possible air filter for a various number of reasons. Not only does a larger air filter allow for more air flow and therefore power but it also does not block up for longer and continues to be efficient at its main purpose which is to filter the air of harmful elements.
The air filter is completely encapsulated within the air filter housing rejecting the vast majority of the engine bay hot air and with the angle of the front inlet the air circulates around the air filter giving an even distribution of outside cool air.
The result is a system which matches the factory intake system for inlet temperatures. In addition the system changes the air flow characteristics for a smoother delivery and allows more air to enter the turbos more easily.
At just 20mph and above, inlet temperatures are equal to ambient under normal cruising conditions. Above 70mph even under hard acceleration inlet temperatures remain at ambient which ensures maximum performance without the ECU compensating by reducing ignition timing, altering boost and adjusting fueling as in hot air open intake systems.
