Intake manifold for PIPERCROSS PK454 Airmax MINI Cooper S/JCW F56 2.0T B48 kit

Intake pipe for PIPERCROSS PK454 Airmax MINI Cooper S/JCW F56 2.0T B48 kit

The Pipercross rear intake pipe has been designed and manufactured to directly replace the original BMW/Mini pipe on F56 2.0T (B48) engines.

The Pipercross F56 Mini rigid rear pipe complements the benefits offered by the AirMax cover and Plus filter, taking the performance of the complete AirMax kit to the next level. The Pipercross part completely replaces the original composite turbocharger inlet pipe, considerably increasing the air flow capacity thanks to the elimination of the original split chamber noise suppression system. The Pipercross assembly consists of an aluminium tube with a larger external diameter (76 mm compared to 70 mm for the original equipment), which makes it possible to further increase the air flow capacity thanks to this modest increase in size. This aluminium tube is bent by CNC mandrel to obtain a constant internal diameter over the entire section. To ensure the tightness of the OE components concerned, the Pipercross vacuum connectors and the turbocharger inlet connector were designed and positioned using Pipercross' in-house 3D scanner, then CNC machined from aluminium bars to exacting dimensional and finishing standards. Similarly, the design and positioning of the Pipercross mounting bracket were extracted from the same 3D scan data, in order to exactly reflect the angles and clearances of the OE pipes.
