This Induction Kit for The BMW Mini Cooper S (R56 models, 2007 on models) replaces the original filter and air box to improve the breathing of your engine. Unlike many aftermarket induction kits, this kit maintains the intake of colder air from the front of the vehicle to ensure that performance gains achieved through using a free flowing filter are not lost by drawing in warmer air from the engine bay. Users of this kit have reported back on the ease of installation aswell as a sportier sound without being obtrusive. Please note this only fits the earlier N14 engine (2007-2012) and not the later N18 engine. Please watch our video on how to fit an air filter without damaging it.     Please Note: In line with our policy to constantly review, revise, and improve our product range, the appearance of the product you receive may differ from the one advertised.

We took one of the very first UK Mini R56’s produced and immediately set to work to improve the OEM intercooler. We did this with the first ever ground breaking innovative L Shape intercooler core design. Many other companies simply copied this design, but Forge still remain the clear market leader due the exhaustive core testing undertaken in the development stages, we were not content with any air core. The Forge Motorsport development team tested 4 different constructions of air core before choosing the final stuffed fin stepped design intercooler for the 2007 onwards models (R56/R57) BMW Mini Cooper S Turbo. As a reduction in intake air temperature increases the density of the charge mixture within the combustion cylinder, any temperature reductions will equate to more power. This intercooler is constructed using a combined 80/40mm high thermal efficiency core, with a 250% larger surface area and a 125% thicker base core, to achieve the best possible results. In fact, even in relatively low road speeds/air velocities, our intercooler was able to better the OEM unit by 9°C, with greater improvements being achievable during greater speeds during track testing. The replacement intercooler is supplied with all the mountings to allow ease of installation.   Click here to find out about information and care for yourForge Motorsport cooling product.   Please Note: In line with our policy to constantly review, revise, and improve our product range, the appearance of the product you receive may differ from the one advertised.
