Ultimate F56 Intake System +16WHP! MINI F56 Cooper S or JCW 2014 - 2024
F56 JCW/S - AIR INTAKE BOX KIT
Standout features of the newly designed F56 intake system:
Performance Gains:
+16WHP and +20 Nm
Achieved without an ECU tune!
The only change: swapping the OEM unit for the TPE Precision Airbox Kit.
To ensure accuracy, all dyno runs were carried out the same day with the same tune, fuel and hardware using 5th gear and closed bonnet.
Airbox:
With a massive 90mm internal diameter air filter.
Enlarge airbox lid.
Secondary air diverter for increased airflow and acoustics.
Secondary Air Diverter:
Air diverter that utilizes the cowl high‑pressure zone, delivering an additional supply of cold, dense air directly into the enlarged airbox
LCI and Pre-LCI:
Kit comes with two adapters (Lci or Pre-Lci, please specify when you order), correctly sized in order to get identical MAF readings as with the OE unit and to avoid engine warning lights.
The Ultimate F56 Cold Air Intake
This is a true plug and play cold air intake engineered to deliver performance without sacrificing efficiency for sound.
Secondary Air feed: Functional Engineering, Not Aesthetic Add‑On
The OEM front air diverter on the F56 is already highly efficient, offering little measurable improvement when replaced.
Rather than redesigning a component that MINI got right, we focused on what the platform actually needed: Greater total system volume.

Our Solution:
A secondary air feed positioned in the cowl high‑pressure zone, delivering an additional supply of cold, dense air directly into the enlarged airbox, something current enclosed aftermarket systems can’t offer.
Not only does this increase mass‑airflow potential, it also gives our system greater internal volume than traditional closed intakes, while remaining fully sealed to prevent heat‑soak, a problem open‑cone kits inevitably suffer from.
In other words, we’ve solved both compromises:
• More volume than closed systems
• More turbo sound than open systems
A no‑trade‑off intake solution for the F56 platform.
Our Approach:
We intentionally manufacture our intakes from advanced plastics, not metal.
Why? Because plastics don’t act like a thermal battery. Metal shields absorb and store heat, exactly what you don’t want when chasing lower intake temperatures.
With our design, the filter is consistently fed by cold air from two locations:
The stock front diverter and our secondary air diverter placed at the high pressure cowl area.
Acoustic Behavior: Why Turbo Sound Increases?
By routing the secondary intake path towards the cowl, outside the heavily insulated engine bay, the system fundamentally changes how turbo sound reaches the cabin.
Key acoustic effects include:
Reduced damping from engine‑bay insulation.
A shorter, more direct acoustic path.
Increased spool and blowoff valve sound.
Audible turbo sound even at light throttle and closed windows.
The result is a raw, mechanical turbo sound profile that even open‑cone kits cannot replicate.
