BMW N20 N26 Turbo Inlet Pipe Hose Upgrade

Let Your N20/N26 Turbo Actually Breathe

The factory plastic turbo inlet on BMW N20/N26 engines is one of the last big restrictions before the turbo. This Turbo Inlet Pipe Hose Upgrade replaces that narrow stock piece with a larger, smoother silicone inlet, improving airflow into the turbo and helping your BMW feel sharper, more responsive and more eager to boost.

Perfect as a supporting mod for tuned cars (Stage 1/2) or anyone who wants to get the most out of their N20 or N26 without going crazy under the bonnet.

Key Benefits

Improved airflow into the turbo – larger internal diameter and smoother path compared to the restrictive factory plastic inlet, reducing airflow bottlenecks. 

Sharper throttle response – helps the turbo spool more freely, making the car feel more eager off the line and during roll-on acceleration. 

Reduced turbo lag – less restriction = quicker response when you get on the throttle. 

Stronger construction than OEM – multi-ply silicone with internal reinforcement handles heat and boost better than the stock plastic and rubber components. 

Better turbo and DV/BOV sound – with the turbo able to draw air more freely, you often hear a crisper spool and vent sound (especially with an intake/tune).
