Dinan Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake for BMW 540i/740i/840i and X3/X4 M40i (G05/G06/G12/G15/G16/G32) - Part D760-0068

While sound is undoubtedly important for a large swath of consumers, performance enhancements are equally as important to others. Common to all Dinan intake design, improvements upon the factory design by increasing flow via a larger airbox and filter element were made. These standard adjustments improv throttle response (and acceleration) and lessen the strain on the turbocharger for maximum efficiency. While box and filter enlargement and redesign are major factors in ultimately producing a more potent intake, they are not the only variables in creating a more efficient design either. The resonator assembly that limited auditory enjoyment also created a more turbulent airflow path by introducing alternative stunted pathways. The Dinan carbon fiber intake tube eliminates these flow disruptions with a smoother, direct flow path for maximum potential efficiency and an overall 20% greater flow when compared to stock. With these flow and efficiency improvements also comes greater power, particularly off the line, culminating in maximum gains of +7 WHP & +12 lb-ft at 2500 RPM on a completely stock vehicle. Carbon Fiber - G01/G02/G05/G06/G07/G11/G12/G14/G15/G16/G30/G32 X3/X4 M40i FITMENT: D760-0068 is ONLY compatible with the 2018-2019 model years for the X3 & X4 M40i. In 2020 the air box changed to a different configuration which affects fitment of the Dinan intake. INLET NOTICE: For B58 'G' chassis 5/6/7/8/X owners that wish to run the Dinan Turbo Inlet (D760-0061) for maximum sound, the appropriate Dinan Intake (D760-0068) as well as the associated Inlet Fit Kit (D763-0100) are REQUIRED. The Dinan Turbo Inlet will NOT mate with the factory intake system.

• More Power: Maximum gains of +7 WHP & +12 lb-ft @ 2500 RPM without additional modifications
• Improved throttle/turbo response compared to stock resulting in quicker acceleration
• 66% larger volume air box (stock: 150in3, Dinan: 250in3) for increased breathability
• 44% increase in filter area (stock: 56.75.3in², Dinan: 82in²) for optimum flow
• Flows 20% more than stock (stock: 416 CFM, Dinan: 506 CFM in 15-inches of H2O)
• Washable and reusable high flow pleated cotton gauze filter
• A pronounced sporty sound courtesy of a semi-open design
• Optimized carbon fiber intake tube with less restriction
• Quick and easy installation

Enhance your BMW's performance with the Dinan Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake, designed specifically for select G chassis models including the 2016-2018 BMW 540i, 740i, 840i, and X3/X4 M40i (2018-2019). Crafted from high-quality carbon fiber, this intake system not only adds a sleek, sporty appearance but also significantly improves airflow for increased horsepower and torque. The larger airbox and filter element promote better breathing, resulting in a maximum gain of +7 wheel horsepower and +12 lb-ft of torque at 2500 RPM on a stock vehicle. The improved throttle and turbo response ensure quicker acceleration and a more engaging driving experience. The intake's semi-open design produces a pronounced sporty sound that enhances the vehicle's auditory profile without overwhelming noise levels.
Dinan's innovative design reduces airflow turbulence caused by factory resonator assemblies, providing a smoother, more direct airflow path. The intake tube's optimized carbon fiber structure minimizes restrictions, enabling the system to flow approximately 20% more air than the stock setup—specifically, 506 CFM compared to the original 416 CFM. This increased flow capacity, combined with a washable, reusable high-flow pleated cotton gauze filter, ensures long-lasting performance and maintenance ease. Installation is straightforward, making it accessible for enthusiasts and professionals alike. Note that this product is compatible only with certain BMW models and requires acknowledgment of Prop 65 compliance. Proper fitment is essential, especially for vehicles with specific airbox configurations, and additional inlet kits may be necessary for optimal sound and performance enhancements.
This intake system is designed to deliver maximum efficiency and power gains without the need for additional modifications, providing a noticeable upgrade over the factory intake system. Its combination of advanced materials, airflow optimization, and distinctive sound characteristics makes it a top choice for BMW enthusiasts seeking both performance and style.
