Bmw M3 Competition Cold Air Intake (F80)

Transform your BMW into a performance powerhouse with the BlackBoost Cold Air Intake System. Experience enhanced power, style, and driving dynamics with this premium upgrade.

In the world of performance Mods, the airbox is one of the important engine components that you should consider upgrading. The factory Airbox is very restrictive in terms of airflow and filtration surface area.

Our Cold Air intakes are Designed and Engineered to overcome this factory designed limitations and deliver the maximum airflow with the lowest possible temperatures considering the space constraints.

The BlackBoost Cold Air Intake is designed to seal inside the purpose built Airbox, ensuring an even seal throughout. While also guaranteeing a large surface area for our 4.3in Twin Flow Conical filter to be able to function.

Our Moulded Synthetic Composite filter adapters are designed to ensure maximum airflow. The BlackBoost twin flow filters are purpose-built for maximum airflow and surface area. With a diameter of 4.3in and a height of 8in. These dry filters are guaranteed to give you the best flow and protection.

The Airboxes are laser cut AL panels with high complexity CNC bends assembled with Stainless steel fasteners, finished with layer of High-Quality Black powder coating.

The BlackBoost intake Kit is a Plug and Play solution, works perfectly by itself without other mods and no additional software tuning is necessary.

It also works seamlessly with Turbo Upgrades, Downpipes, Methanol injection and more to provide the necessary airflow to unleash the full capacity of the machine for those targeting 1000+ Whp values.
