MST High-Flow Compressor Intake Elbow for BMW N55 3.0
Unlock smoother breathing and sharper response from your BMW’s 3.0 straight-six with this MST high-flow compressor entry pipe. Engineered to maximise air delivery to the turbocharger on the standard unit, it replaces the restrictive factory plastic tube with a robust, five-layer silicone upgrade that is reinforced with spiral wire for rock-solid stability under vacuum. A smooth, uninterrupted bore and enlarged internal diameter reduce turbulence, helping the turbo spool freely while adding a satisfying induction note.
Built to last and to fit perfectly, the assembly features precision-machined aluminium terminations for an airtight seal at the compressor inlet and the engine breather connection. It integrates seamlessly with the OEM airbox and ducting, and it also pairs brilliantly with performance intake systems for future upgrades.
