The VA Motorsports BMW F2X F3X m135i m235i 335i 435i F87 M2 N55 Cold Air Intake is a high-performance upgrade meticulously designed to enhance the power, efficiency, and sound of your BMW’s N55 engine. Tailored for the F2X and F3X platforms, including the m135i, m235i, 335i, 435i, and the F87 M2, this cold air intake is engineered to deliver exceptional airflow and performance while maintaining OEM-like fitment and reliability.
This N55 Cold Air Intake replaces the restrictive factory air intake system with a precision-engineered design that significantly increases airflow to the engine. By delivering a higher volume of cold, dense air, it optimizes combustion efficiency, resulting in improved horsepower, torque, and throttle response. Whether you’re navigating city streets or pushing the limits on the track, this intake ensures your engine operates at its peak potential.
One of the standout features of this intake system is the integrated heatshield with rubber seals, which provides superior thermal insulation. The heatshield is designed to isolate the air filter from the engine bay’s heat, ensuring that only cool air is drawn into the intake. This helps maintain lower intake air temperatures, which is crucial for achieving maximum performance and preventing heat soak. The rubber trims provide a secure and precise fit while also acting as a seal to further protect the intake from unwanted heat exposure, enhancing both efficiency and reliability.
The high-flow air filter included in the kit is reusable and washable, offering long-term cost savings while maintaining exceptional filtration performance. The filter effectively captures dirt and debris without compromising airflow, ensuring clean, oxygen-rich air reaches the engine. The intake tubing is crafted from lightweight, high-quality aluminium or composite materials that are resistant to heat and corrosion. Its smooth interior minimizes turbulence and maximizes airflow, allowing your engine to breathe more freely.
Designed specifically for the F2X and F3X chassis, the N55 Cold Air Intake ensures a seamless fit and easy installation. It includes all necessary hardware and components for a straightforward, bolt-on process that requires no additional modifications. The system maintains compatibility with factory mounting points and sensors, ensuring that your BMW’s original functionality is preserved while delivering upgraded performance.
In addition to performance enhancements, this cold air intake amplifies the sporty sound of your N55 engine. The open design and optimized airflow increase the induction noise, creating a more aggressive and engaging engine note during acceleration. This refined auditory experience complements the performance gains, making every drive more thrilling and immersive.
Visually, the N55 Cold Air Intake adds a premium touch to your engine bay. The sleek design of the heatshield and the high-quality finishes of the components provide a clean and professional appearance that reflects the precision engineering behind the system. This aesthetic upgrade is as impressive as the performance improvements it delivers, ensuring your BMW looks as dynamic as it feels.
The VA Motorsports BMW N55 Cold Air Intake is an ideal choice for both stock and modified vehicles. For enthusiasts running higher boost levels or additional performance upgrades, this intake ensures that your engine receives the airflow it needs to perform optimally under demanding conditions. The combination of improved cooling, increased airflow, and exceptional filtration makes it a vital component for unlocking the full potential of your BMW’s N55 engine.

PREPREG is a common term for a reinforcing fabric such carbon which has been pre-impregnated with a resin system. This resin system (typically epoxy) already includes the proper curing agent. As a result, the prepreg is ready to be laid into the mold without the addition of any more resin. In order for the laminate to cure, an autoclave production process is used, a combination of high pressure and heat.
- Maximum strength and performance characterictics. In a hand layup production process, it is difficult to achieve 50% fabric and 50% resin content. Typical hand laminates, even when vacuum bagged, end up with a significant amount of excess resin. Excess resin increases brittleness and reduces overall strength properties. On the other hand, most prepregs contain around 35% resin. This is ideal for maximum cured properties and generally impossible to achieve in normal hand lamination.
- Uniformity and repeatability. The prepreg is of uniform thickness and each part coming out of the mold may theoretically be the same. Vacuum bagging technology may have some errors in processing, but prepreg ensures production consistency.
- Reduce curing time. After the thermal curing cycle, no need to wait for the standard 48 hours can be fully cured.
- Aesthetics. Although prepreg processing still requires mold preparation and demoulding, prepreg processing eliminates air bubbles, makes it easier to obtain a smooth, glossy surface as well as eliminates any seaming lines.
