Pipercross V1 Carbon Fibre Enclosed Airbox Induction Kit BMW 1 Series F20 M135i N55 (2012 Onwards)

Carbon Air Intake System for BMW F20 M135i N55 by Pipercross V1

Give your BMW M135i the intake it deserves with the Pipercross V1 carbon air intake system. Designed specifically for the F20 chassis with the N55 3.0-litre turbocharged engine from 2012 onwards, this sealed carbon housing and multi-density foam element combination delivers smooth, high-volume airflow for sharper response and a purposeful induction note while helping to keep under-bonnet heat at bay.

The V1 architecture pairs a precision-moulded carbon enclosure with Pipercross layered foam media to optimise the relationship between filter and airbox. The result is a highly efficient, closed intake that promotes consistent airflow across the rev range, aiding drivability and performance without compromise. Lightweight, strong and temperature stable, the carbon construction looks as good as it performs.
