This inlet kit will include everything you need to replace the restrictive OEM inlets. We also offer our VRSF Dual Cone Intake Kit (DCI) which greatly increase flow in the mid to upper RPM range while introducing a more aggressive engine note.

I love the quality of the inlets. They sound amazing and do great with the performance gains. Not only do I see numbers I feel them too with the responsiveness. I have also have to say thank you so much Cheryl with the patience you gave me and feedback you are quick to answer!!

2008 535i bmw (verified owner) –
I hope this review helps someone out because dear lord if it wasn’t a fight to get these hoses. I am actually doing a OEM+ Turbo install myself and during that process i broke the rear inlet so I decided to just upgrade because I supposed that was a sign to. Maybe since I had the subframe out it was “easier” so I cant say how it is with the subframe but I can say it is possible from YT with the 135 and 335i I haven’t seen one with the 535i. If you have a 535i you know how tight everything is to get… you cant do anything without removing something. The rear inlet pipe was actually easier than the front I put Vaseline all around the hose and it “slipped” right in position. There’s a lot of fighting the hose down and getting beat the mess out of by your casual bmw torx bolts with the sharp edges all around them so be prepared or try to wear something protective like I attempted. The front inlet hose on the other hand was a pain… After managing to get it on (beware its a very tight fit) I zip tied it to the fan so it wouldn’t scrape the belt while driving. I am almost finished with this build so I cant say how it runs yet but I can say it is a very tight fit but when its in , its in. I’m very picky when it comes to quality and I can say I was impressed how fast it got here and mint conditioned packaging. Recommend this to anyone with a twin turbo’d n54.

Great quality. Opens up the stock turbos great with the 1.75”. Used on up graded stock turbos with billet wheels. The spool quickness is nuts. It’s literally boost on demand.
Adnan Gashi (verified owner) –
Great fitment!! Worth its weight in gold! Flawless fitment!!!
Alex Ludeman (verified owner) –
Great kit that works well with my other VRSF parts. Highly recommend
Rigoberto Romero (verified owner) –
Very affordable and fit great
Ed Stubbs (verified owner) –
2009 E61 535 xdrive. These inlets are very well made and the power gains are notable with my MHD tuner. That said on an xdrive the rear inlet is a tough install. No fault of VRSF simply a tight fit and difficult rear turbo connection. I am 67 and my shop has a two post lift. At my age I would not want to do this on my back.

Works perfect and good quality.

I bought 2″ for my stock turbos and aftermarket adapter 1.75 to 2″ for future turbo upgrade. Fits perfect!

Love the product. Front hose was a bit short to fit securely on stock air filter box and clear belt and pulleys. Ordering VRSF cone filters to fix it.
Gio Hernandez (verified owner) –
Seen improvement and sounds amazing!
Adam (verified owner) –
Good quality and fitment
Soufiane Bourjel (verified owner) –
This helps so much more with the vrsf filters to suck in more air. It is very strong silicone and the quality is very good.
chris2speed (verified owner) –
happy with my results, better than the stock ones that melt. a little hard to install but got the job done
Spencer Hamilton (verified owner) –
Sounds great!! Can definitely hear a stronger sucking sound on a hard pull and feels much more freed up. Totally a must have if you want more power and an aggressive sound.
Pedro Lagunas (verified owner) –
Great quality, fast shipping, and the sound of the turbos when they spoil up is very perfect highly recommend this kit for your N54

Cesar Castro (verified owner) –
You get much better air flow and better sound on exhaust with this product
Dustin (verified owner) –
If you’re installing these in a 135i, be prepared for a tough install. But once they’re in, it’s so worth it! These inlets allowed my upgraded turbos to breath so much better and the performance gain was huge! I was impressed with the quality for the price too.
Quick tip: thoroughly wipe down the turbo flange and inlet with rubbing alcohol before clamping down. You don’t want these slipping off!
Anatolii Gubka (verified owner) –

David Davilas (verified owner) –
Not much to say they work, get them when replacing your turbos and do both at once
Alex (verified owner) –
Perfect fitment for upgraded turbos. Those that didn’t want to relocate their inlets to the hot side, this is the perfect product. 5/5 for sure.
Yahir Melendez (verified owner) –
Fitment is a little tight but just right once it’s on there

Apeekachu (verified owner) –
No issues with fitment, greased up the rear and pulled it down with a string while a helping hand pushed it from above. My challenge were with the catalytic converters. The front fit well, no rubbing on pulleys and belt and attached back the stock airbox with existing Afe filter (debating if I should go DCI). Hard to specifically note the impact since I upgraded the charge pipe and FMIC and also walnut blast all at once. Overall gains are definitely noticeable and all of a sudden I have a heavy foot. It’s only been less than a day but right now I don’t care about the high California gas prices.
Jaewon (verified owner) –
Fitment is very tight, not as easy as you think. Be prepared to fight the inlet for the rear turbo.
Lee (verified owner) –
I love vrsf can’t go wrong
dsmken (verified owner) –
man when i tell you they were direct fit, I mean direct fit. The turbos sound awesommeee,and I gained 39whp,48lbs tq going fron my ebay 1.75 inlets that popped may I add. Definitely worth the money, and the build quality is just amazing. Highly recommended
@yosoymed (verified owner) –
quality and fitment are perfect. Came with plugs and all the hose clamps needed
Andre Antenorcruz (verified owner) –
I bought these to complete the path of air from intakes out of the turbos ensuring their are no restrictions, and the power is worth the difficulty of install.
Austin Garey (verified owner) –
High quality material much better than the brittle factory
Bo acker –
These are as described but if u have a 135i I do not recommend these the quality is good but the rear inlet is an absolute pain in the ass to get on
Mario –
Now installing these wasnt the easiest thing in the world but it helps to take your time and have and engine holder to lower the motor to slip the rear inlet on better (along with all the lube in the world). I wish the front inlet was about 1.5 inches longer so it could seat better on the stock airbox but other than that its definitely worth putting on.
Nicholas Torigian (verified owner) –
Rear Turbo is a pain but other than that amazing sound and performance for the money.
Chacegolden15 (verified owner) –

These inlets look amazing! I’ve been extremely happy with my VRSF downpipes and 7.5” Race FMIC so I’m expecting the same with the inlets. Thanks!

I have been in the process of transforming a completely stock, low mile E92 car into something greater. I have picked up the majority of all the supporting modifications necessary to make my N54 based car as perform the way it should.
With their full 3.5″ exhaust, high flow silicone inlet pipes and 2″ outlet pipes, my new turbochargers are going to be able to support enough power to keep a grin on my face for years to come.
Brian 535xi (verified owner) –
Inlets look great. Not sure how you could improve them. Unfortunately, a 2″ set was put in a 1.75″ box. Contacted customer support by email and received return label within an hour! I ended up keeping the 2″. Outstanding customer service! It’s hard to come by anymore. You gotta love these smaller businesses, they’ll treat you right because they care.
Corey W. (verified owner) –
Awesome. Super fast shipping, always quality and customer oriented.

I actually have the silicone inlets on my e90 and the aluminum ones on my e92 (both VRSF). Both great products. Shipping was a breeze, and Tiago actually helped out with a question I had. In all honesty, the customer service from this company is top notch. Read the other reviews.
Pehter –
I bought both the inlets and outlets and I couldn’t be happier. The performance improvement was great. The sound of the turbos is greatly improved also. This kit was the best choice for me, since I’m keeping my car looking as stock as possible. The width of these parts is greatly improved over stock. Perfect for when I upgrade my stock turbos. The construction of these parts are well made. The instal was lengthily but that’s due to the stock routing. Great product and price.

Best of the best !!!!
Super fast shipping!!! makes engine look better and faster !!!

Great Product
Fitment was spot on, and I definitely feel a difference. For the price can’t be beat.

Great Product From a Great Company
Purchased these inlets and received them the same week that I ordered them. Product went in smooth and car runs great with them in. These are a must for any N54 owner.

Surprised how fast package came…thanks!
This kind of service can determine whether someone “pulls the trigger” on a purchase or not.

Great fit, quality and finish
Have purchased VRSF inlets/ outlets, chargepipe, DCI and am very happy with the quality of the products from them. Just about to order the 7” HD FMIC and diwpupes to compleat the package. Very happy with the purchases so far.

N54 OEM location inlets
These inlets are fantastic, high quality and definitely worth the investment. I look forward to installing them and releasing a few more HPs
Thanks Tiago for the great product and service
Benoit –
VRSF c’est synonyme de qualité
Ces tuyaux d’inlet sont vraiment un must pour apporter de l’air en quantité suffisante à vos turbos. Leur composition en rubber fait en sorte que l’air ne se réchauffe pas en s’y rendant. Donc un maximum d’air à la température la plus fraîche qui soit égale de bien meilleures performances. Pour terminer le son que ça donne est tout simplement génial, faut l’entendre pour comprendre.
J’ai déjà un intercooler de VRSF qui est d’une qualité de finition incomparable, mais maintenant avec ces inlets, j’ai la confirmation qu’il ne se fait pas mieux pour ma bmw.

High Quality Inlets
Inlets came quickly even though they were on backorder over the holidays. High-quality parts from a reputable manufacturer. Getting these put on next weekend and looking forward to the gains!

OEM Inlets
OEM inlets are a must if you want your 335 to perform. Sound is awesome and there is a very noticable gain in performance.
Matthew –
Another one of a kind product from the best in the biz
Loving the extra flow and power, pairs nicely with my VRSF Catless Downpipes and Exhaust, these inlets are no joke! No other company is putting out products as innovative as VRSF, not to mention their prices are unbeatable and they ship at no cost!
Christopher D. –
Loving the hp gain and sound!
All your products on my 535i are truly great quality. Just got my inlets installed, loving the hp gain and sound!

Solid product VRSF!
I have these OEM inlets and they rock, ran them with DCI and about to switch over back to the stock intake. So happy I can use the OEM airbox. People don’t understand that it keeps the temps down so well if you’re driving the car hard in the heat. I couldn’t imagine having no choice with relocated inlets. The flexibility of this product can’t be beat. Solid product VRSF!
