Product Description

The AEM 21-839C Cold Air Intake System is a performance-focused intake upgrade designed specifically for select **Mini Cooper, Mini Cooper S, Mini Cooper Clubman, Mini Cooper Countryman, and BMW X1/X2 models** equipped with turbocharged 1.5 L or 2.0 L engines. By replacing the restrictive factory intake elements with a high-flow mandrel-bent aluminum tube and oversized Dryflow synthetic washable filter, this system increases airflow into the engine, helping improve throttle response, horsepower, and torque delivery across the powerband.

AEM's Dryflow filter media is oil-free and washable, offering up to approximately 100,000 miles of service between cleanings under typical driving conditions. The included custom heat shield with edge trim lining helps reduce intake air temperatures by minimizing heat soak from the engine bay. Installation is straightforward with the supplied clamps, coupler, and mounting hardware, making this a popular bolt-on upgrade for enthusiasts seeking enhanced performance and sound. Note that this intake is **not legal for sale or use in California or other states that adopt California emission standards** - verify local regulations before purchasing.
