AEM Intake (2nd Gen) SOLD
Category: Drivetrain
Price: $300
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R55, R56, R57, R58, R59
Location (Region): NorthEast
Item Condition: Used
One of the better intake setups for the 1.6L turbo engines.
Everything is in great shape, all parts and hardware included. Airbox, turbo heat shield, filter, turbo pipe, air tunnel, etc.
The plastic press in fasteners that hold the air tunnel onto the hood work fine, but for a few bucks you can pick up replacements at an auto parts store.
There is a cutout in the bottom of the airbox so you can run lines for an oil catch can underneath it, but once everything is installed you cannot see it.
100% itrader and eBay rating.
$300 shipped to the lower 48.
PM with interest!

Actually per previous owner, it was for catch can lines.

Doesn't defeat the purpose of the ram air. The ram air is only to make sure the filter receives the coolest air possible, not for pressurizing. You would have to go ridiculously fast to see any kind of positive pressure in the airbox.
Any air that does come in through the ram air escapes through hole. It's also definitely not a cold air intake with all the heat coming off the engine being sucked through the hole.
+1 that box need to be fully closed, it's not about pressurizing it's about keeping the hot air out and colder air in.
I am sorry to start this, I was about to pull the trigger just had to ask.
