INTAKE

Factory BMW intake systems are well known to be very efficient. 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

The stock plastic intake elbow on your BMW E46 M3 is a good functional piece, but leaves power on the table. The sharp corner and accordion sections of the stock piece creates flow turbulence right before the critical entry into the engine’s air plenum. The shape of the stock part is less than optimal. The Macht Schnell S54 Intake Charge Pipe (ICP) is designed using the same features as the intake sections on the World Challenge class racecars. Learn More

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
