ECS Tuning Silicone Turbo Inlet Hose – MINI Cooper S/JCW N14 (R55-R59)

Upgrade your MINI Cooper N14 with our high-flow silicone turbo inlet hose, featuring increased internal volume for greater airflow, a smooth interior finish for an uninterrupted flow path, and more available air for your turbo to consume, resulting in enhanced performance and throttle response.

Unlike the factory plastic inlet hose, which degrades over time and was never engineered with performance in mind, the ECS Tuning replacement features a durable, 4-ply silicone construction with wire reinforcement to handle higher temperatures and boost levels. Reinforced sections help prevent flex and collapse under load, and a smooth internal profile with a counterbored outlet reduces turbulence for optimized airflow to the turbocharger.

ECS Tuning also addresses a known issue where the OEM hose can walk off the turbo inlet and ingest the included gasket, often leading to premature turbo failure. This upgraded design provides a much more secure fit and peace of mind for performance-minded MINI owners.

ECS Tuning Exact-Fit High Flow Dry Air Filter for Mini

Upgrade your Mini's air intake system with the ECS Tuning Exact-Fit High Flow Dry Air Filter, designed to replace your factory air filter. This reusable filter offers improved airflow, resulting in better engine performance and fuel economy. With easy installation and low maintenance, this filter is an excellent choice for enhancing your Mini's performance.

Benefits:

• Higher flow than stock paper filters

• Requires cleaning only every 50,000 miles under normal highway driving conditions

This ECS intercooler replaces the stock MINIature intercooler with a MASSIVE 250% larger surface area and a 125% thicker base core! This increase in core size improves flow while cooling compressed air into the intake manifold. Cast aluminum end tanks are TIG welded and feature machined transitions for maximum flow. This intercooler features a special black powder coating to prevent fin corrosion, as well as improve overall heat transfer to insure the lowest possible outlet temperatures.

FEATURES:

250% larger surface area compared to the OEM intercooler 125% thicker intercooler core TIG welded transitions Flat black powder-coated finish BENEFITS:

Drastically lower intercooler outlet temperatures/intake air temperatures Increased airflow Reduces the likelihood of heat soak DESIGN:

The limitations of the stock intercooler were apparent throughout our testing and design process. The stock part consistently struggled to manage charge air temperatures, even under normal driving conditions. Our ECS Intercooler has been designed to improve on every restrictive element of the stock cooler, enhancing cooling efficiency by lowering intake air temperatures even compared to the R56 Cooper S aluminum intercooler, allowing you to continuously push your car without the detriment of heat soak!

This ECS Front Mount Intercooler Kit was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at our Wadsworth, Ohio facility. We strive for the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing.

NOTE: A performance tune is not required to run this intercooler. A tune will only increase the output of the engine when equipped with this intercooler.

When MINI released the F5X platform, every model gained BMW's modern turbocharged B38 and B48 engines. These were an instant upgrade over the outgoing Prince engines, boasting increased reliability, performance potential, and, best of all, a turbocharger! Unfortunately, the factory airbox does its best to hide this, silencing the turbo's character and nixing any chance of driving excitement. Thankfully, the team at ECS set out to improve upon this shortcoming with their Luft-Technik Performance Intake System!

The ECS Luft-Technik Performance Intake System is designed to maximize efficiency, airflow, and induction sound, enhancing your driving experience while completely transforming your engine bay. This intake unlocks an unparalleled auditory experience by eliminating restrictive factory components, thereby freeing up the induction soundtrack for an exhilarating experience. Let your engine breathe!

At the heart of this system is a durable aluminum intake tube, finished in high-quality wrinkle black powdercoat for a premium finish. This intake pipe is 80mm in diameter, ensuring the induction tract is free of restriction and maximizing airflow. A proprietary, ECS-branded bracket is used to secure this pipe to the strut tower, providing a clean mounting solution with minimal movement or flex. To enhance induction noise, this intake system includes a conical air filter that features oiled media for optimal airflow.

Features:

Precision-engineered for a seamless fit on B36/B38 and B46/B48 F5X MINIs
Durable wrinkle black powder-coated aluminum intake tube resists heat and corrosion
Massive 80mm high-flow air filter for increased surface area and better induction sound
Improved throttle response and enhanced engine sound
