Description
Infinity Design Carbon Fibre Intake for F8X M2C/M3/M4.
Design
The S55 intake system is the result of extensive analysis and testing; the design is fully sealed with no gaps to ensure the lowest air intake temperatures. The primary focus was to keep the air flow as smooth as possible. In order to improve on the OEM system, Infinity Design have used the maximum space available to create the largest intake on the market.
A detailed and accurate design with air filter housings connecting directly to the OEM air feeds. Both banks have large cross sectional turbo inlet tubes with integrated MAFs and smooth expanding inlet tubes. The expanding large volume inlet tube acts like a large velocity stack, which accelerates the airflow and is much larger than the small and short velocity stack fitted to the internals of the OEM intake.
The result of smoother airflow from the inlet tube is a far smoother lower rpm torque availability from the engine, vastly improving drivability. Throttle response is immediately felt to be smoother and more eager. The inlet tubes are attached via stainless steel v-band clamps to the air filter housings, which attaches directly to the OEM front air feeds.
High Flow Air Filters & Intake Temperatures
This intake system matches the factory intake system for inlet temperatures. In addition, the intake system changes the air flow characteristics for a smoother delivery and allows a greater quantity of air to enter the turbos more easily. This fully developed and intelligently designed intake system is not just something that looks good in the engine bay; it does an impeccable job as an air smoothing device. It increases the air available, increasing air speed into the turbos and allowing the turbos to spool faster. It also keeps intake air temperatures low and makes a sophisticated, race car like intake noise under load. Most important of all is the way the engine becomes more alive, responsive and enjoyable to use not just under full load but also during normal every day driving.
Performance Testing
Dyno tests were performed under strict controlled conditions on a Dyno Dynamics machine in order to show a true and realistic result.
Average +10-15 WHP / + 10 lb.ft
Average Peak Gains – 15WHP @ 6700rpm / 12-15WHP 5800-7500rpm. The results are as expected for a large volume system, with large velocity stack shaped inlet tubes. The OEM system flows enough up to 4000rpm, up to which there are small gains in power. After 4000rpm, power gradually increases to the rpm limiter with 12-16 flywheel HP from 5800-7500rpm. The graphs are not a phase shift which is typical of dyno tests where the correction factor has been changed to show larger than actual gains for marketing purposes.
