When our development team analysed the OEM airbox and inlet tract on the BMW M140i kindly loaned to us from The Performance Company, we could see some obvious gains that could be had across the platform.
As such we wasted no time in comparing the B58 powered M140i with a B48 powered BMW 230i and were able to locate some useful similarities between the two. Therefore, we came up with a multiple part solution to maximise all areas.

The Carbon Fibre
Using carbon fibre brings obvious benefits of strength, lightweight and aesthetics. However, a part that is often forgotten is its low thermal conductivity, which means it reduces heat soak and transmission of said heat to nearby items.
Keeping Inlet Air Temps (IAT’s) low is often a difficult part of developing induction systems, so replacing metal or plastic inlet solutions for FMINDK55 will help decrease IAT’s and increase the volume of air supplied to your vehicles engine that is compressed by the turbo charger.
This has a better effect on performance when cool as this is to provide the engine with more oxygen (denser air), thus improving the combustion in each cylinder.
In addition, by regulating and reducing the air temperature, it also increases the reliability of an engine by keeping the AFRs (Air Fuel Ratios) in each cylinder at a safe level, which in turn, can increase an engines power due to the air being cooler.
A bigger bang is then created within the cylinder, providing the correct amount of fuel is added. This can equate to an increase in BHP and torque.
The Inlet Hose
The sound resonator and accordion ribs on the OEM inlet hose cause significant turbulence to the airflow causing a detriment to the engine’s potential performance. Our improved solution gives you a host of performance upgrades, including:
Improved induction noise.Multi ply silicone construction improves longevity over that of the OEM hose.5 ply silicone construction will be able to handle strain of engine mapping far better than OEM hose.Increase of diameter at airbox end from 85mm to 90mm.Lifetime warranty.
FMINDK55 is part of our acclaimed Hi Flow range and will ensure that your vehicle is getting critical cold air. Not only is the Forge part a better option for performance, but the carbon fibre really helps to give the engine bay some character.
The weave of the carbon has been optimised to match the carbon on the intake manifold, which really shows the level of detail we put into our designs.
The high-quality carbon fibre is prepreg 2x2 twill formed in an autoclave from billet tooling and finished with an anti UV gloss gel coat.
The Forge Motorsport lifetime warranty* on all hardware products shows the trust we have in the quality of our products while they are being enjoyed on your pride and joy.
The kit comes complete with everything you need for installation which can be carried out in around 1 hour, including a set of full colour instructions.
For such an easy to fit product it truly does create some remarkable gains. If you are looking at whether FMINDK55 fits a vehicle not specified in our compatible vehicle listing, please check if your OEM upper airbox has a channel for the strut bar to fit through
