E9X M3 (2008-2013)

Designed under the idea of function over form, Macht Schnell is the first to develop a proven intake system that compliments the already efficient M3 air box. By replacing the restrictive stock filter with a larger, more free-flowing performance filter the engine is able to breathe air easier. Also replaced is the stock, accordion style intake elbow that connects the air box to the intake manifold. The Macht Schnell replacement Intake Charge Pipe (ICP) has very smooth and glossy interior walls and is 18% larger by volume, eliminating the turbulence and resistance that the stock elbow produces. The elbow is constructed from super strong polyethylene and has a textured exterior that perfectly matches the texture of the OEM intake manifold for a stock look. Included are Macht Schnell's own Intake Charge Scoops, making a matched combo that provides maximum air delivery for your S65 engine with noticeable power gains. Learn More

On the S65 V8 M3 models, the stock exhaust headers flow very well while the catalysts present the largest obstacle and power loss. the Macht Schnell Bypass Track Pipes were designed specifically for race/track use, and offer a cost-effective means of removing the 400 cell restrictive primary catalytic converters on all 2008-2013 M3s. Bypass Track Pipes allow you to make two single cuts to your stock midpipe section, removing the catalytic converters, and clamping the largest diameter straight pipe in their place using the provided high-end/premium exhaust clamps. This eliminates the largest source of exhaust restriction, unleashing considerable power gains (~20hp) and a very obvious improvement in acceleration. Learn More

Macht Schnell is proud to offer a high quality, high performance and high protection original equipment direct replacement air filter – specifically for your N54 powerplant. Combined with our Intake Charge Scoops (ICS), this matched combo will provide maximum air delivery for your N54 engine with noticeable power gains. The ICS pieces are constructed from nearly indestructible polyethylene, which prevents heatsoak and will not bend, distort or rust after years of use. The inside of the ICS pieces have a smooth radius with a gloss finish to direct airflow into the intake snorkel while the outer edged are black textured to emulate factory pieces, giving a stealth appearance.

Factory BMW intake systems are well known to be very efficient – particularly on the M models. The Macht Schnell Intake Charge Scoops assist in air delivery by diverting cold, fresh air from behind the kidney grilles into the airbox, with a noticeable power gain found at higher speeds on vehicles equipped with our High Performance Filters. The ICS pieces are constructed from nearly indestructible polyethylene, which prevents heatsoak and will not bend, distort or rust after years of use. Learn More

Created to reduce unwanted flex and as an improvement over the spongy stock bushings, and used on M3 GTS/CRT as well as M5/M6, Macht Schnell’s Solid Aluminum Subframe Bushing kit is just the ticket. Bushings are Machined from 6061-T6 aerospace aluminum to provide a firm, solid suspension mounting point from subframe to vehicle eliminating any flexing which greatly improves feel and handling.
