Summary
BMW's single-turbo N55 straight six is one of the great modern engines, yet it spends its life breathing through a restrictive standard air box. This MST Performance cold air intake system swaps that box for precision-engineered aluminium pipework designed to cut intake restriction and turbulence, so the six pulls cleaner and sounds far more like the engine you paid for. One part number covers the M135i-era 1 Series, 2 Series, 3 Series and 4 Series from 2012-2016 plus the M2 F87, and every fitting for a direct OEM-replacement install is in the box.
Best For
M135i, M235i, 335i and 435i owners who find the standard intake too quiet and too restrictive
M2 F87 daily drivers adding induction character without touching the rest of the engine
Staged N55 builds where the air box is the next restriction to remove
Keeping one intake spec consistent across an F-chassis N55 project
Letting The N55 Breathe
A turbocharged engine is only as responsive as the air path feeding it. MST design their intakes to increase air speed into the engine while minimising turbulence and flow restriction, and the aluminium construction holds its shape where flexible standard plumbing cannot. Fitted to a standard or already-tuned car, the change you notice daily is the induction note - the N55 hardens up audibly under load instead of staying muted behind the factory box.

Check your model code and build year against the table, and confirm the part number matches your exact car before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Will this fit my N55 BMW?
It covers the F-chassis 1, 2, 3 and 4 Series with the 3.0T N55 from 2012-2016 and the M2 F87 from 2016-2017. Match the fitment table to your model code and year before ordering.
Does the car need to be tuned first?
No. MST build their intakes to suit standard vehicles and already-tuned cars alike, so it works as a first modification or as part of a wider build.
What changes day to day?
The most obvious difference is induction sound under load compared with the muffled standard air box, along with a freer-breathing intake path feeding the turbo.
