Ramair Pleated Intake Kit for F66 Mini Cooper & F70 M135i – with Carbon Fibre Lid
This intake kit from Ramair is a straightforward upgrade over the standard factory air intake on the F66 Mini Cooper and F70 M135i. Designed specifically for cars fitted with the B48 2.0i engine, it replaces the restrictive standard airbox with a freer-flowing setup that lets the engine breathe more easily – which in turn can improve throttle response and give a more rewarding induction sound, particularly when the turbo spools up.
It is worth being clear about what this kind of upgrade does: it is not a tune or a remap, but improved airflow is a genuine foundation for better engine performance. Many drivers notice a sharper, more responsive feel when accelerating, and the induction noise becomes more pronounced compared to the muted sound of the standard setup.
What is Included
- Ramair pleated performance air filter
- Black powder-coated heat shield – CNC cut for precise fitment
- Two-piece carbon fibre top cover
- Rotomoulded intake pipe
- Full fitting kit with step-by-step instructions
Filter Maintenance
The Ramair pleated filter can be cleaned and re-used rather than replaced outright. Ramair’s own filter maintenance kit (part number CK-003) is available separately and is compatible with this filter, making long-term upkeep simple and cost-effective.
Build Quality
The carbon fibre two-piece lid is a standout detail – it looks purposeful under the bonnet and is a step above the plastic covers found on most standard intakes. The CNC-cut heat shield (a precisely machine-cut metal shield that helps keep hot engine air away from the filter) is powder-coated black for durability. The rotomoulded intake pipe – made using a robust rotational moulding process – is designed to maintain a consistent and smooth airflow path into the engine.
Fitment note: This kit is designed for the F66 Mini Cooper and F70 M135i fitted with the B48 2.0i engine. Please use the vehicle lookup tool on this page or check the Vehicle Fitment tab to confirm compatibility with your specific model before purchasing.
