TPE Precision Carbon Fiber Intake Kit: Gen2

WHY TPE PRECISION:

​The TPE Precision R56 (and other gen2 models) MINI intake sets a new benchmark in aftermarket intake design for the R56 platform. Our intake is designed and developed to:

1) Eliminate restrictions in the inlet path.
2) Lower intake temperatures.
3) Plug and play fitment.

The first objective was met by reducing as much as possible the distance between the airfilter and the turbo inlet. With the TPE Precision intake, air travels a short distance less than 250 mm from the high flow airfilter to the inlet of the turbo.

The second objective was met by relocating the air filter from the back of the engine bay to the front of the vehicle. Additionally the filter is protected by the engine heat from a carbon fiber air box. The air filter draws cold air from the front of the vehicle, at the same location as the OEM unit.

The third objective was met by utilizing the latest available technology. We use our in house 3D Scanner, the latest CAD software and 3D printers to verify fitment and performance.

Proven gains in independent vehicle and dyno.

All dyno runs were done the same day, in the same car, with the same fuel.
​
The car was originally equipped with:
High flow panel filter with a JCW airbox.
Full exhaust and downpipe.

Intercooler.

Charge Pipes.
Tune.

    1st dyno session 232.8 HP

    2nd Dyno session only addition the TPE Precision intake: 241.5 HP

    3rd Dyno session with TPE Precision and Retune 249.5 HP.

*The car used for the test: BAD BOY TUNING R56 N14 Cooper S (UK)
** The dyno used for the test and retune: The Tuning Society (UK)
​

Disclaimer: Every dyno session consists of multiple dyno runs.

The 232.8 HP of the 1st dyno session is the best number the vehicle achieved! The number was dropping in every single dyno run due to heat.

The 241.5 HP is the lowest number the vehicle achieved with out intake kit.
​
The 249.5 HP is the lowest number the vehicle achieved with our intake kit.

Conclusion: The TPE intake kit not only increases horsepower and torque, in the whole rpm range even as a bolt on,  but it also makes, consistently,  more​ power in comparison to stock over and over again.

*Bespoke ECU tune is required in order to delete the MAF sensor. Our tuning partner TRS Performance can calibrate your ECU in order to delete the MAF sensor. 

The R56 intake is plug and play for the N14 but for the N18 the customer needs a bespoke tune in order to delete the MAF sensor.
