Unlock the full potential of your BMW MINI’s F66 B48 engine with FMINLH27, Forge Motorsports high-flow inlet pipe performance upgrade. Designed to eliminate the restrictive factory inlet, this upgrade significantly improves airflow to the turbocharger, allowing your engine to breathe more freely and respond faster under throttle. Constructed from high-quality 5 ply silicone and stainless-steel reinforced wire for durability and heat resistance, the high-flow inlet pipe features smooth inlet track. The result is improved turbo spool, sharper throttle response, and increased power especially noticeable on tuned or modified vehicles.

This inlet pipe is a direct bolt-on replacement for the OEM unit, requiring no permanent modifications and ensuring a precise, factory-quality fit. Whether you’re chasing maximum performance on track days or simply want a more engaging driving experience on the road, this upgrade delivers measurable gains and enhanced engine sound under load.

FMINLH27 can be used with the OE airbox or aftermarket induction kit’s like Forge Motorsports carbon solution FMINDK61, so it’s a product to suit all preferences.         

Material choice and increase flow

During development testing, we found that using oversized aluminium piping led to significant heat soak. While initial power gains were impressive, repeated dyno testing revealed a drawback: by the third pull, the aluminium pipe had absorbed and conducted excessive heat, resulting in a noticeable reduction in performance.

By switching to a silicone hose design, this issue was eliminated. Silicone does not store or conduct heat as effectively as aluminium, preventing heat soak. Even after six consecutive dyno pulls, the silicone hose maintained a stable temperature and showed no reduction in power output.

The Forge Motorsport high-flow inlet hose improves your vehicle’s airflow in several key ways. First, we eliminate the internal muffler found in the OE pipework. While
