class=\"esp-lead\"\u003eThe S58 is a twin-turbocharged masterpiece. BMW's newest S-christened masterpiece delivers blistering horsepower, instantaneous torque, and a glorious induction soundtrack. Unfortunately, this symphony is muted from the factory due to an extremely restrictive intake system. The OEM intake system is built to meet stringent NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) restrictions, resulting in a quiet, restrictive system that dampens the engine’s true sound and limits airflow efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring development, our engineers found multiple issues with the factory intake system. The catacomb-modeled airbox assembly utilizes complex internal baffling and resonator chambers to suppress induction sound, reducing noise at the cost of airflow. Moreover, it hides a total of eight restrictive panel filters, all of which limit available airflow. Finally, the box itself is well-insulated, effectively muting the aforementioned induction soundtrack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ECS Luft-Technik Performance Intake System is engineered to fix these issues, providing increased airflow, reduced complexity, and most importantly, a drastic increase in induction sound! By linking dual-cone air filters directly to the turbocharger inlets, this intake flows an average of 30 CFM greater than the OEM airbox. As if sound wasn't enough, this increase in flow translates to improved throttle response and substantial power gains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.ecstuning.com\/product_library\/1973161_x800.jpg\" alt=\"F97 X3M \/ F98 X4M Luft-Technik Performance Intake System\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"esp-sec\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"esp-feat\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin 3.75\" dual-cone air filters are joined to the turbocharger inlets with reinforced silicone couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe powder-coated 12-gauge aluminum heat shield keeps intake air temperatures down and provides secure mounting for the filter adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetains the stock engine cover for unaltered aesthetics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUtilizes the factory engine cover ducting to route cold air from the driver side inlet to the passenger side filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"esp-sec\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"esp-feat\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuring prototype testing on our Superflow SF-750 Flowbench, we observed an average flow increase of 30.0 CFM, gains of 10.4% over the OEM intake system!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinking the filters directly to the turbocharger inlets provides increased sound and reduced restriction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMassive 3.75\" inlets provide improved throttle response and substantial power gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"esp-sec\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Development\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur X3M\/X4M Luft-Technik Intake System was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research \u0026amp; Development team at our Wadsworth, Ohio, facility.
