328i 128i n52 cold air intake (cen-cal)
Cen-Cal N52 Cold Air Intake Kit w/ Heat Shield | BMW 328i / 128i / 330i
Enhance the performance, throttle response, and engine sound of your BMW N52-powered vehicle with the Cen-Cal Cold Air Intake Kit featuring an integrated heat shield. Designed to improve airflow efficiency over the restrictive factory intake system, this intake system delivers increased horsepower, torque, and a more aggressive induction sound while maintaining excellent drivability for both daily and spirited driving.
Constructed with lightweight aluminum intake piping and paired with a reusable high-flow air filter, this intake kit provides smoother airflow compared to the OEM rubber intake tubing. The included heat shield helps reduce heat soak by isolating the intake filter from engine bay temperatures, promoting cooler and denser intake air for improved performance.
Perfect for enthusiasts looking for a simple bolt-on upgrade, this intake kit offers straightforward installation using basic hand tools and includes all necessary hardware for installation.
