F10 N55 Stage 1 for Stock or Aftermarket Inlet

Your N55's restrictive factory airbox becomes a bottleneck above 4,000 RPM, preventing your single turbo from reaching target boost and causing heat soak that kills power. This Stage 1 intake eliminates that restriction, feeding your turbo the cold, dense air it demands for consistent performance.

Performance Gains

Expect 10-15 HP and 15-20 lb-ft of torque gains with proper tuning, plus noticeably sharper throttle response throughout the rev range. The forward-facing filter design captures genuine ram air effect at highway speeds, while the heat-shielded construction prevents intake air temps from climbing during spirited driving. Your N55 will hold boost more consistently to redline and spool faster from low RPM.
