TPE Precision F54 Clubman Airbox Intake Kit

TPE Precision F54 Cold Air Intake Airbox Kit

A true plug-and-play cold air intake engineered for the MINI F54 Clubman platform, designed to deliver improved airflow, increased intake volume, enhanced turbo acoustics, and strong performance without sacrificing efficiency.

Key Features

• Massive 90 mm internal diameter air filter
• Enlarged airbox lid for increased internal volume
• Functional secondary air diverter using the cowl high-pressure zone
• Sealed airbox design to help reduce heat soak
• Correctly sized LCI or pre-LCI MAF adapter
• Plug-and-play installation with no retune required

Performance Gains

Dyno testing recorded gains of +16 WHP and +20 Nm without a retune.

To ensure accuracy, all dyno runs were completed on the same day using the same tune, fuel, and hardware. Testing was carried out in 5th gear with the bonnet closed.

Test car specification:

• TPE Precision Turbo Inlet
• TPE Precision Intake Muffler Delete
• TRS Performance Stage 1 ECU tune

The only change during testing was swapping the OEM airbox for the TPE Precision Airbox Kit.

Functional Secondary Air Feed

The OEM front air diverter on the F54 is already highly efficient, offering little measurable improvement when replaced. Rather than redesigning a component MINI engineered well, we focused on what the platform actually needed: greater total system volume.

Our secondary air diverter is positioned in the cowl high-pressure zone, delivering an additional supply of cold, dense air directly into the enlarged airbox.

This increases mass-airflow potential and gives the system greater internal volume than traditional closed intakes, while remaining fully sealed to help reduce heat soak.

No-Trade-Off Intake Solution

Traditional closed intakes can limit intake volume, while open-cone kits often suffer from engine-bay heat soak. The TPE Precision F54 Airbox Kit is engineered to solve both compromises.

• More volume than traditional closed intake systems
• More turbo sound while retaining a sealed airbox design
• Cold air supplied by both the factory front diverter and secondary cowl feed

A true no-trade-off intake solution for the MINI F54 platform.

Material Choice

We manufacture our intakes from advanced plastics rather than metal. Plastic does not absorb and retain heat like metal shielding, helping support lower and more consistent intake temperatures.

The filter is consistently supplied with cold air from two locations: the factory front diverter and the TPE Precision secondary air diverter positioned in the high-pressure cowl area.

Enhanced Turbo Acoustics

By routing the secondary intake path toward the cowl, outside the heavily insulated engine bay, the system changes how turbo sound reaches the cabin.

• Reduced damping from engine-bay insulation
• Shorter, more direct acoustic path
• Increased turbo spool and blow-off valve sound
• Audible turbo sound at light throttle and with the windows closed

The result is a raw, mechanical turbo sound profile while retaining the efficiency benefits of a sealed intake system.

LCI and Pre-LCI Compatibility

The kit is available with either an LCI or pre-LCI MAF adapter. Each adapter is correctly sized to match OE MAF readings and help prevent engine warning lights.

Please specify whether your vehicle is LCI or pre-LCI when ordering.
