Ramair PRORAM Performance Air Intake Kit – F56 Mini Cooper 1.5T & Cooper S 2.0T (PRK-138-BK)
The Ramair PRORAM induction kit is a direct-fit performance air intake upgrade designed for the F56 Mini Cooper 1.5T (B38 engine), Cooper S 2.0T (B48 engine), and JCW 2.0T (B48 engine). It replaces the restrictive factory airbox setup with a freer-flowing system that allows more air into the engine – improving throttle response and producing a more engaging induction sound under acceleration.
This kit is particularly effective on tuned or mapped vehicles, where the engine is already pushing beyond standard fuelling limits and stands to gain most from improved airflow. On a standard car, the improvement is more noticeable in feel and sound than outright power figures, so it is worth setting realistic expectations based on your setup.
Important: Before ordering, check your factory airbox to identify which type of MAF sensor your vehicle uses. MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor – this is the sensor that measures the amount of air entering the engine. This kit is available in three variants: Oval MAF, Rectangle MAF, or No MAF. Selecting the wrong option will affect fitment. See the product options above to choose the correct version.
What’s Included
- PRORAM Performance Air Filter – Features Ramair’s Twin-Tangential Velocity Stack design paired with a premium pleated synthetic nanofiber filtration material. This combination is engineered to flow more air with less turbulence compared to a standard paper filter element, while still filtering effectively.
- Laser-Cut Heat Shield – Precision folded and powder-coated in black, the heat shield bolts directly to the standard OEM airbox mounting points and rubbers with no modification required. It creates a physical barrier between the filter and the warmer parts of the engine bay, directing cooler air from the factory cold air feed towards the filter. Cooler intake air is denser, which helps maintain consistent performance.
- Full Fitting Kit – All necessary nuts, bolts, hose clamps, and silicone hose connectors are included. Note that some components from the standard intake pipe and airbox are reused during installation, so retain these when removing the factory setup.
- Step-by-Step Fitting Instructions – Detailed photographic instructions are included to guide you through the installation process.
Key Benefits
The PRORAM kit is built around improving airflow without sacrificing filtration quality. The velocity stack design helps smooth out the air as it enters the filter, reducing turbulence that can rob performance. Combined with the heat shield keeping intake temperatures in check, this kit delivers a well-rounded upgrade over the standard setup – not just a filter swap.
Installation uses the factory mounting points and rubber mounts, meaning no drilling or custom fabrication is needed. For most home mechanics with basic tools, this is a straightforward job.
This kit is designed to fit the F56 Mini Cooper and Cooper S range, but fitment can vary depending on build date and specification. Please use the vehicle lookup
