High Flow Silicone Intake Hose

The M7 Speed High Flow Silicone Intake Hose is a direct-fit upgrade for all MINIs featuring the later model N18 turbocharged Prince engine. Constructed from 100% silicone with four-ply fiber reinforcement, this hose is built for durability and resistance to oil and chemical damage, capable of handling continuous service up to 300°F. It is available in four M7 colors: Black, Red, Blue, and Green. This intake hose offers a significant performance improvement with a 33% larger internal flow volume compared to the factory part. Its super smooth inner surface promotes enhanced airflow directly to the turbocharger. A key design feature is the elimination of the problematic OE reducer bushing found at the intake hose/turbocharger connection, which helps prevent common occurrences of the hose being sucked into the turbo and causing costly damage. The hose also features two PCV hose connections, retaining the stock main PCV hose connection location and size for ease of installation, and can be used with either the OE PCV hose or an oil catch can system. The secondary engine block vent hose connection is relocated to the underside of the intake hose for a cleaner engine bay appearance. It includes two electronic plug-in replicators to prevent the check engine light (CEL) from illuminating when using a non-OE part, along with four appropriately sized stainless steel clamps and a cap for models not equipped with the secondary vent hose. Over 10,000 miles of testing have validated the robustness and performance of this component. The connection diameters are 2.75” (70mm) ID at the MAF sensor and 1.77” (45mm) ID at the turbo inlet.
