TPE Precision Cold Air Intake For MINI F60 Countryman Cooper / S / JCW Non 306 BHP

The TPE Precision Cold Air Intake is a complete induction upgrade for the MINI F60 Countryman, engineered to improve airflow, deliver measurable performance gains and transform the way the turbocharged B38 and B48 engines sound from behind the wheel.

Designed as a no compromise intake solution for the F60 platform, the TPE system goes beyond simply fitting a larger filter or creating more induction noise. The intake has been developed around the way air enters the system, how efficiently it reaches the turbocharger and, importantly, how turbo sound is transmitted back into the cabin.

The result is an intake that delivers both genuine performance improvements and a distinctive mechanical character without requiring an ECU retune.

Proven Performance Gains

Testing has shown improvements on both the three cylinder B38 and four cylinder B48 engines:

B48 Engine
+16 whp
+20 Nm

B38 Engine
+7 whp
+10 Nm

These gains are achieved without an ECU retune, making the TPE Precision intake an effective bolt on performance upgrade for otherwise standard cars as well as modified builds.

Improved airflow helps the turbocharger breathe more efficiently, supporting stronger response and allowing the engine to deliver more of its potential without compromising everyday drivability.

A Different Approach to Turbo Sound

One of the defining features of the TPE Precision F60 intake is its secondary air feed.

Rather than keeping the complete intake path within the heavily insulated engine bay, the secondary intake is directed towards the cowl area. This does more than introduce an additional source of air. It changes the route through which turbocharger sound reaches the cabin.

The result is substantially increased turbo spool and blow off valve sound, with the turbo clearly audible even under light throttle and with the windows closed.

Instead of simply creating the louder induction roar associated with many open cone intake systems, the TPE design produces a more mechanical turbo sound profile. Spool, compressor noise and pressure release become far more apparent, giving the F60 a character that is difficult to achieve with a conventional open filter arrangement.

It allows the driver to hear more of what the turbocharger is actually doing without sacrificing the benefits of a properly designed cold air intake system.

Performance Without the Usual Trade Offs

Many aftermarket intake systems prioritise either sound or airflow. TPE Precision has developed the F60 system to deliver both.

The carefully considered intake path increases airflow while retaining a controlled supply of cooler air, providing an effective performance upgrade that also dramatically increases driver involvement.

For an enthusiast who wants their Countryman to feel and sound more purposeful without resorting to an exposed open cone filter, the TPE Precision system offers a particularly complete solution.
