BMW High Flow Intake Panel Insert - K and N 33 2070

Upgrade your BMW’s breathing with the K and N 33 2070 panel insert. This high flow, cleanable cotton element sits straight into the original air box for a quick intake refresh that helps the engine breathe more freely. We run this filter on our own builds and our customers consistently rate the fit and performance. If you want a simple induction upgrade without cutting or modifying anything, this is the one.

• Direct-fit element for the factory air box, no trimming or adaptors required
• Serviceable cotton media that can be cleaned and reused, not a single-use paper part
• Designed to reduce intake restriction and support sharper throttle response
• Ideal for regular road use and spirited driving on six-cylinder petrol models
• Built by a trusted performance filtration brand with proven reliability
• Cost-effective long-term upgrade compared to repeatedly buying disposable filters
