Shopper Award

The VR Performance Front Mount Air Intake System for the BMW M3 | M4 F80/F82/F83 vehicle is a great way to improve performance of the turbocharged S55 Engine. The challenge with building this intake is to exceed the performance of the factory air box. Turbocharged vehicles can be easily tuned and with this increase in performance, the engine demands for air flow improvements.  Vivid Racing has engineered a complete intake system that uses the space behind BMW's highly recognized kidney grills.  Where the factory intake uses scoops to feed the airboxes, VR relocates the filters to this space which forces a large amount of air directly through the intake system.  This intake upgrade will also help your intake air temperatures from the relocation due to the high heat of the S55 engine. 

The VR Front Mount Air Intake kit is made from cutting edge roto-molded plastic that requires precision machine molds to provide a true OEM fit and finish of a product.  Unlike competitor products made from aluminum, this type of tubular construction does not retain as much heat.  Each tubes fit and finish is of OEM quality that provides you with confidence in performance and style.  The intake kit includes necessary breather fittings, chassis mount, and silicone couplers with clamps for an easy installation.  Once this intake is installed, the new high flow air filters are prominently visible behind the iconic BMW kidney grilles. 

The intakes use our brilliant blue VR cone filters which feature NanoTech from our filter manufacture.  Not only does this allow your engine to breathe better than stock, it is also reusable for the life of the vehicle. This high flow cylindrical air filters features a much-improved flow rate over stock and designed to catch more particles compared to a paper mesh design like OEM. The air filters feature the concave front end filter to gain the maximum amount of air flow possible.  These are dry filters that do not require any oiling which could potentially harm a intake sensor.  Each filter features the VR rubber end cap. 

VR Performance's front mount intake is designed for the high performance enthusiasts looking to further their already modified M car.  It is HIGHLY recommended to have an ECU tune done for optimal performance.  Because of the much improved airflow, without ECU tuning, a check engine light can be caused.  Proper ECU tuning will bring out the incredible performance that the intake adds.  As tested on our Mustang Dyno, a gain in performance was seen throughout the entire power curve.  A very strong peak gain of 27 wheel horsepower and 9 ft/lb of torque was achieved in ther power curve. Additionally, the cold air intake produces a more aggressive tone allowing you to hear the turbochargers much more.

What Is VR Performance?

VR Performance is, as the name suggests, the performance division of the Vivid Racing brand. Under the VR Performance line, we offer everything from blow-off valves, shift knobs, and brake lines to lowering links, springs, headers, and complete cat-back exhaust systems. Everything you could possibly need to amp the performance and riding quality of your vehicle is available through the VR Performance store. Born from a passion for going further and getting the most out of our vehicles, the VR Performance line will unleash the true potential of your ride in terms of aesthetics, power, and functionality.

VR Performance Lowering Links

VR Performance is well-known for its high-quality lowering links, which work with your vehicle's factory air suspension to seamlessly lower its ride height. The lowering links are fully adjustable and replace the stock ones which control the air ride. By changing the linkage length of the air ride sensors, this gives you a much more desired ride height in all modes. Best of all, these links snap right in place of the non-adjustable ones and fit in seamlessly for a simple installation process that is also easily reversible. These durable metal lowering links give your ride the perfect lowered look without that pesky wheel gap and delivers a smooth performance with the OEM system. Boasting a rigid construction, this product was made to withstand the elements of both daily and more spirited driving to deliver maximum performance for a long time.

VR Performance Exhausts

VR Performance's latest release of cat-back exhausts is nothing less than exceptional. We offer a series of titanium and stainless-steel variants for a wide range of makes and models. Our highly sought after Valvetronic exhausts are designed to specifically increase the sound and performance of your particular vehicle. Crafted from high-quality materials, these exhausts feature brilliant robotic TIG welding as well as smooth bends to deliver optimal flow and power gains. And, thanks to the cutting-edge Valvetronic design, your OEM valves are reused so you can change the tone of your vehicle with just the push of a button. Electronic valves are placed on the outlet of the muffler which control the sound so you can go from mild to wild in seconds. When closed, the exhaust flow goes through the single outer tip which is quieter. However, when the valve is opened, the exhaust goes straight out to deliver an exhilarating tone that demands attention.
