The intake the E60 never got.
Most E60 intakes for the N52 and N53 are a pod filter and a flimsy heat shield. This is a fully enclosed airbox designed specifically for the E60, not an E90 part made to fit.
What it does
Designed for the E60
Not an afterthought or an E90 intake adapted to fit. It's built around the E60 engine bay.
Fully enclosed airbox
A sealed, carbon fiber reinforced ASA box keeps engine bay heat away from the filter.
Fresh air from the front
A high-flow velocity stack pulls cool air from the front of the car, not the engine bay.
High-flow filter
Replaces the restrictive factory dual-filter airbox with a single high-flow filter.
Choose your sound
The standard lid keeps it civil. The optional Street Performance Lid lets more of the induction note through.
Optional silicone boot
Swap the stock intake boot and its resonance chamber, which is there to mute the intake, for a custom silicone boot.
