Product Description

The aFe 54-12392 MagnumFORCE Stage-2 Cold Air Intake System is a performance-focused upgrade specially engineered for BMW E36 3-Series and M3 models with six-cylinder engines from 1992-1999. Designed to replace the restrictive factory airbox and intake plumbing, this Stage-2 system dramatically improves airflow - resulting in increased horsepower, torque, and throttle response compared to stock.

Featuring a massive 5" tall Pro 5R oiled cotton gauze air filter and a rotomolded intake tube, this intake system maximizes airflow efficiency while maintaining excellent filtration. The powder-coated heat shield isolates the intake from under-hood heat, ensuring cooler air delivery for improved combustion efficiency. Built for a direct bolt-on installation using factory mounting points and hardware, the 54-12392 is an ideal upgrade for classic BMW E36 enthusiasts seeking noticeable performance gains and improved sound without complex modifications.
