Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-E90-06IHBL is a blue, five-layer silicone intake boot purpose-built for BMW’s N52 engine, engineered to replace the factory hose that BMW equipped with a sound-deadening resonator. Mishimoto tossed that resonator, giving this specific intake boot a noticeably deeper engine and intake tone while steel reinforcement rings keep the hose from collapsing under load.
As a core piece of your car’s air intake system, the intake boot channels air from the airbox toward the intake manifold, and a worn, cracked, or collapsing hose can starve your engine of the airflow it needs. This Mishimoto intake boot is molded as a one-piece silicone assembly with round ports on both ends and steel reinforcement for added rigidity, and its Performance-grade silicone construction is rated to withstand a maximum temperature of 330. Whether you’re replacing a tired factory intake boot or refreshing your air intake filter path for reliable, consistent airflow, this hose is built to hold up over the long haul, backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
Vehicle Applications
This intake boot is a specific, direct-fit replacement for the BMW N52-equipped E90/E92 and E82/E88 chassis. It fits the 2006 BMW 325Ci, 325i, 325xi, 330i, and 330xi, the 2007–2013 BMW 328i, the 2009–2013 BMW 328i xDrive, and the 2007–2008 BMW 328xi. It installs with the stock airbox and works with either the single stage or 3-stage intake manifold, so it drops into place without requiring other intake system modifications.
