Unleash the true potential of your S54-powered BMW E46 M3 with the Eventuri Carbon Fibre Intake System – a precision-engineered upgrade designed to enhance performance, throttle response and induction acoustics while maintaining full compatibility with the OEM ECU and MAF sensor. Unlike generic cone filter setups, this system features Eventuri’s patented carbon fibre housing and Venturi-effect airflow technology, creating a laminar intake path that improves volumetric efficiency and real-world power delivery. With gains of 10–15hp and 8–12 ft-lb torque, the difference is immediately noticeable on both road and track.
Crafted from 100% prepreg carbon fibre with CNC-machined and anodised aluminium components, the intake system reflects Eventuri’s uncompromising commitment to quality, function and design. Every detail, from airflow optimisation to thermal shielding and OE integration, has been meticulously developed to produce one of the finest intake kits available for the E46 M3 platform.
