Turbo Inlet suitable for BMW B57 engines (up to 11/2020)

Maximum Flow Efficiency for Your BMW B57 Engine: The Bionically Optimized Turbo Inlet

Push the physical limits of your BMW B57 engine – with our specially developed motorsport component for the BMW G-Series up to model year 11/2020. This inlet has been optimized using state-of-the-art CFD flow simulations to significantly reduce pressure loss compared to the restrictive series component. The result in testing: drag-free turbocharger spooling, optimized flow values, and more direct throttle response. The bionic shape of the inlet, inspired by natural flow principles, ensures laminar airflow and minimizes wall friction and turbulence. This not only improves overall intake efficiency but also ensures that the calculated power can be accessed earlier – across the entire tested RPM range.

Your Technical Advantages at a Glance:

• More efficient air supply for improved performance, especially in the lower RPM range
• Accelerated turbocharger response due to minimized pressure loss
• More homogeneous flow to the turbocharger
• Up to 20% less pressure loss
• Characteristic change in flow acoustics

Plug-and-Play Integration & Industrial Processing

The turbo inlet can be installed without modifications – all OEM connection positions are retained. Manufactured using high-resolution industrial 3D printing from robust polyamide (PA12), it offers maximum fitting accuracy, temperature resistance, and thermal longevity – even under extreme competitive loads.

Resonance Chamber Substitution

Our flow component deliberately omits the standard resonance chamber to eliminate internal air turbulence. For absolutely laminar flow and more direct acoustics, a sealing plug is included that replaces the volume of the original resonance chamber. This optimizes readings, especially at maximum air demand. Please note, not available for all models.

Delivery time:

Our products are usually ready for shipment within 2-3 business days, provided they are in stock. If an item is unavailable due to supply bottlenecks or unexpectedly high demand, it will be remanufactured for you using a high-quality 3D printing process. In this case, the delivery time will be up to 3 weeks to ensure the highest quality and optimal fit.
