Turner Motorsport E30 24V Swap Performance Air Intake

Give your 24V swap the intake it deserves. The Turner 24V Swap Heat-Shield Intake System is purpose-built for E30 engine swaps and engineered to keep intake air cold, fit cleanly into tight engine bays, and preserve the factory air duct.

Most swaps leave you with two less-than-ideal choices: bolt a filter directly to the MAF and suck in hot under-hood air, or cobble together a universal intake that still lacks proper heat shielding. Turner’s system eliminates those compromises.

With its low-profile, heat-shielded design, this intake keeps the filter isolated from engine heat as much as possible, maintains compatibility with the stock 3.0” MAF, and supports factory CCV/ICV routing. The result is OEM-level fitment with modern airflow performance, no wiring hacks, no vacuum headaches, just a clean and effective intake solution for your swap.

Key features

• Heat shield designed to fit M20 and M5X swapped cars — mounts to the frame rail and ties into the ABS mount for rock-solid positioning. Creates a colder air pocket where the factory inlet duct is.
• 5052 powder-coated aluminum heatshield, stiff, corrosion-resistant, and finished for a long life in the swap environment.
• The black silicone intake elbow and coupler is a compliant, high-temperature silicone that grips clamps and resists blow-off during repeated fitment and heat cycles.
• Retains stock 3.0" MAF, no adapters needed to run the factory OBD1/OBD2 MAF in a factory-like location.
• Designed to preserve stock CCV and ICV hoses for M50/M52 setups, this keeps the typical manifold and crank-vents intact, thereby avoiding vacuum and idle headaches common in swaps.
• Stainless-steel hardware for longevity and corrosion resistance.

Fitment & compatibility:

• Specifically engineered to work with common 24V conversions where space is tight and retaining OEM-style plumbing is desired. Mounts to factory frame rail/ABS brackets, minimal modification required.

M50/M52 engines are among the most popular 24V choices thanks to robust iron blocks, widespread availability, and strong aftermarket support, making them an excellent pairing for turbo or naturally aspirated builds. Keeping the stock MAF and CCV/ICV routing reduces the troubleshooting surface during install and helps complete your swap faster.

Product Development:

• The Turner 24v Intake System was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by the Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology, including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing. Performance data metrics are collected utilizing Mustang AWD 500 SE in-ground dyno and in-house Superflow SF-750 Flowbench.
