A 535i is meant to feel effortless, and the intake is an easy place to give the N55 straight six back some voice. This MST Performance cold air intake system replaces the restrictive standard air box on the F10 and F11 5 Series (3.0T N55, 2009-2016) with precision-engineered aluminium pipework shaped to reduce restriction and turbulence on the way into the turbo. It arrives with every fitting needed for a direct OEM-replacement install, so nothing about the engine bay needs improvising.
Best For
F10/F11 535i owners adding induction character to an otherwise standard car
High-mileage 5 Series refreshes replacing tired standard intake plumbing with hard pipework
Tuned N55 executive builds that need the intake side to keep up
Drivers who want the six audible under load but standard-quiet at a cruise
An Executive Six With A Voice
MST design intakes around air speed, low turbulence and minimal restriction, and build their kits with top-quality components. On a motorway car like the F10 the practical difference is character: a cleaner intake path feeding the turbo and a distinctly sharper induction note when you extend the engine, without changing how the car behaves at part throttle. It suits a standard 535i or one that has already been remapped.

Fitment And Setup Checks
This kit is for the 3.0T N55 petrol six in the F10 saloon and F11 Touring, 2009-2016 - not diesel models or the later G30 body. Confirm your engine and build year, and check the part number matches your exact car before ordering. Running the later G30 5 Series with the B58? Use the MST G30 B58 intake kit instead.

Frequently asked questions
Does this fit the 535d or four-cylinder models?
No - it is built for the 3.0T N55 petrol six in the F10/F11. Four-cylinder N20 cars use a different MST kit, so match the part number to your engine first.
Will it suit a remapped 535i?
Yes. MST state their intakes suit both standard and already-tuned vehicles, which makes it a sensible pairing with software work.
