Infinity Auto Design Turbo Inlets

Too new to say how functional it is but it is a welcome improvement to the unsightly plastic box.

Got mine on order.

The rest of the Infinity Auto Design intake is second to none, and I don't expect these elbows to be any different.

I got my pre-order as well. I asked if they would make some CF Charge pipes. They did say that they would entertain it but that would only do it they could find evidence for performance improvement and more importantly interest in the product.

Pleased beyond words to see that someone in aftermarket still has interest in this platform.

I previously had the Eventuri intakes, but as soon as I saw a set of the Infinity intakes at a car meet in London, I knew I had to upgrade! Here's a pic showing a 50:50 with both intakes. You can clearly see just how much smoother the airflow path is on the Infinity, and I can't wait to complete the setup with the turbo inlet elbows.

Oh wow! Side by side really shows off the care taken in the creation process. Very nice.

that's great, waiting for your feedback after installation, infinity auto said throttle response will be improved.

All,

I received my gloss cf turbo inlets from infinity one week after payment, shipping from the UK to Germany via DPD was a breeze. It might be a while before I can install and test them, due to the winter conditions. But I still wanted to thank inifinity for the excellent service so far, I’m excited to mount these beauties 👌

Will be very interested in seeing whether there's any noticeable performance improvement. Look great, regardless.

So, I installed the infinity cf turbo inlets and the fitment is spot on. I replaced the original inlets with charge pipes and coolers in place, therefore the removal and installation were tricky and certainly a tight deal. Nonetheless, I’m very happy with the result and will report back after running stage 2 and then stage 4, to validate performance.
The overall appearance is top notch and an excellent addition to my cf engine bay accessories 🤩

We've got a couple of weeks to wait for ours to arrive apparently! :-(

They look amazing, and will compliment the rest of the Infinity kit that I already have (you need this now too!!!)

I'm looking forward to hearing how you find them on the road, and whether there is any difference in the drive, and also the sound!!

It looks to me as though BMW deliberately went out of their way to make the OEM elbow as inefficient as possible. I have a hunch that this is to create turbulence and reduce turbo noise maybe.

I look forward to your review!

Since I’m still breaking in my upgrade engine, I couldn’t really test the whole rpm band nor full power. But the intake noise and turbo spool were IMHO improved, even in case of lighter acceleration, starting at 2k rpm. I understand that everyone wants to see real world figures, it’s just my first impressions so far. The inlets are plug&play, they can accommodate all types of intakes and do not cause any CELs. I’m very pleased thus far, high boost levels will reveal the true nature of these parts!

Damn. These are very tempting especially since I found out I my Intakes were causing a CEL. Even with the new engine and components, the same CEL I had before the install still existed. He replaced the intakes with a factory box and the CEL went away. Was going to go with some Project Gamma intakes but these look so cool.

These look so good! On the f90 the intake elbows are claimed to improve the 60-130 time by .1 seconds.
