Performance Air Intake System for 2006–2010 BMW M5 / M6 – S85 V10 Power & Sound
This performance intake system is engineered to maximize your BMW's airflow capacity. By replacing the restrictive factory intake elbows with massive, oversized silicone induction paths, this kit allows the Formula 1-derived S85 V10 to pull in a larger volume of oxygen-rich air with significantly less effort. The result is a more energetic combustion cycle, providing crisper throttle sensitivity and more fluid acceleration, making the legendary 8,250 RPM redline feel even more accessible and explosive.
Made specifically for the S85 V10 platform, this upgrade unlocks hidden efficiency while maintaining the high-revving soul of your M-Series. In addition to the performance boost, it grants your BMW a deeper, more intoxicating engine note under load, letting the V10 scream with its true motorsport character while the high-quality silicone finish keeps the engine bay looking clean and purpose-built.
