Airtec Motorsport de-res boost pipe for the Mini Cooper S and JCW F56 (B48 engine), developed as a direct upgrade to improve turbo response and sound.
The original boost pipe features internal silencers (resonators) fitted by the manufacturer to reduce Intake noise. However, these internal restrictions also limit airflow.
Replacing it with a straight, free-flowing aluminium pipe without internal damping improves airflow. This results in quicker throttle response and a more clearly audible turbo and induction sound from the cabin.
The pipe is manufactured from high-quality aluminium and features a precision-machined connection for a perfect fit on the original mounting points. It is finished with a black powder coating and features a subtle Airtec badge.
The kit is supplied as a complete bolt-on upgrade, including all necessary fixing materials and clear fitting instructions.
Please note: available exclusively in Pro-Series Black (Silver shown for illustrative purposes only).
