RE: Mini Cooper S (F56) | PH Fleet
Discussion
Looking (and hopefully sounding) good Adam!
The F56 lot have tried just about every intake combo under the sun now, and there s a pretty solid pattern emerging. If you re chasing the best mix of noise and actual airflow, most of the gains are further up the tract rather than at the airbox itself.
- Replace the OEM turbo inlet to improve airflow, the stock one is a bit strangled, so a freer‑flowing inlet helps the whole system breathe better.
TPE Turbo Pipe
- Replace pipe to remove resonator,this makes a surprisingly big difference to flow and gives you more of the good noises without going silly. Forge/MMR/Pipercross all do versions. (Forge, MMR, Pipercross all do one)
Pipercross Resonator Delete
- Replace airbox with a closed box system a proper sealed intake keeps temps under control. The open cones sound great but they do pull in a lot of bay heat, the intercooler has to overcome.The TPE one is novel and sounds good. Not much use for you, as you have already 'invested' ;-p
