Pipercross Intake Kit for F8X BMW M2 Competition, M3, M4 - PK455
The Pipercross PK455 Intake Kit is a high-performance induction upgrade designed to replace the restrictive factory airboxes and intake piping on the BMW F87 M2 Competition, F80 M3, and F82/F83 M4. Crafted using advanced 3D scanning and CAD technology, this system offers impressive performance gains, a deeper induction sound, and race-inspired aesthetics, all while maintaining full compatibility with OEM ducting and sensors.
Key Features
-
Power Gains: +21 HP & +15.81 lb-ft Torque
Verified performance increase through flow bench testing and real-world driving. -
Direct OE Replacement Design
Replaces factory airboxes and intake plumbing for a seamless fit on all S55-powered F8X platforms. -
58.95% Increase in Filtration Surface Area
Twin conical Pipercross foam air filters offer superior airflow and dirt-trapping capabilities compared to traditional panel filters. -
Heat Shield & Cold Air Isolation
Large powder-coated aluminium heatshields isolate the filters from engine bay heat, ensuring colder, denser air intake. -
CNC Mandrel-Bent Aluminium Tubing
Lightweight, powder-coated aluminium pipes with precision CNC-machined MAF and sensor housings ensure accurate readings and optimal airflow. -
Flow Tested: 78.76% Less Restriction
Compared to the OEM F8X intake system, the PK455 delivers significantly improved airflow for tuned and stock applications. -
Premium Build Quality
Stainless steel hardware and thick-wall, step-matched silicone couplers ensure long-term durability and leak-free operation.
Why Upgrade from the OEM Intake?
While the stock S55 intake is effective for factory-tuned engines, it quickly becomes a bottleneck under higher boost or performance tuning. The Pipercross PK455 addresses these limitations by increasing airflow capacity, enhancing thermal efficiency, and improving throttle response — ideal for both daily-driven and track-prepped F8X models.
Vehicle Compatibility
The Pipercross PK455 Intake Kit is compatible with the following BMW S55-powered models:
| Make | Model | Chassis |
|---|---|---|
| BMW | M2 Competition | F87 |
| BMW | M3 | F80 |
| BMW | M4 | F82 / F83 |
Installation & Fitment
Designed for straightforward installation using standard hand tools, the Pipercross kit reuses the OEM cold air ducting while replacing the entire airbox system. The CNC machined housings ensure OEM-level sensor integration for hassle-free ECU compatibility.
