M7 Super AGS
Our Price: $329.00

Like many owners out there, we're sure that as soon as you got your R56 you ripped off the airbox and put a cone filter in its place. It definitely wasn't a bad idea, but here at M7 we wanted to take it to the next level.

Enter: the M7 Super-AGS

Adding another choice of intake for R56 owners, the M7 Super-AGS uses the open filter idea for better power and throttle response while maintaining a clean, OEM style appearance. Inspired by the intake system of a Porsche GT3 RS, the Super-AGS utilizes a massive rectangular filter design that features 1,134 in˛ of pleated filtering area. The box of the system is connected to the factory piping and MAF sensor via a smooth-walled silicone elbow.
M7 AGS-R
Our Price: $629.00

The M7 AGS-R is the best performing R56 Cold Air Intake system currently on the market. We have added tons of features to keep this system the best performing and best looking available. Here are some exclusive features that make the M7 AGS-R so special:

1. Composite construction minimizing heat soak of the intake box.

2. A properly designed intake tract allowing the air to speed up with no restrictive air-box interface. We also added vortex generators to minimize restrictive laminar flow. The filter will see the airflow across the whole 12" of filter media, not just a small portion of it.

3. A huge 12" dual stage foam filter with a 3" tube interface that will outflow any flow requirement the engine will ever need. The MAF interface of 3"OD allows for a perfect fit to stock components.

4. Simple "Knock-out sound ports" placed above the filter element allow the owner to adjust the volume of the blow-off sound coming from the engine compartment. With these three ports, the driver can experience the quiet stock sound or full out turbo-announcement (it's ok, we like making the neighbors' kids jealous, too).

5. After looking closely at the dynamics of pressure inside the box and possible pooling of water in a rain storm (or worse depending on your location), we decided to add rain/water valves in the lowest area of the intake box. As water enters the the intake box, some will atomize and enter the engine without harm and cool the intake charge (good thing). Larger droplets will accumulate towards the lowest area in the box and thus exit through the water valves due to the high box pressure.

6. We also kept servicing the engine in mind. The filter element can be cleaned and re-oiled by opening up the filter compartment at the rear of the intake box. Oil can be changed without removing the AGS-R. For spark plug service, just remove the AGS-R (two M6 button head screws) and loosen the rubber downtube. This is a simple process that takes no longer than a couple minutes.

7. Since the AGS-R is not attached to the hood, a Strut Tower Brace will comfortably fit right above the air box with no issues.

8.Either the M7 R56 Ram Scoop or M7 R56 Vortex Scoop will be a fabulous addition to this system in terms of style and air volume.

9. Heat is enemy numero uno under the hood of the R56. Since part of the AGS-R sits above the turbo, a simple but very effective heatshield is included with the intake. For those wanting a step above, we will soon offer an Aerogel-lined heatshield to futher defend against the heat.

10. The AGS-R is made right here in the US for quick availability and quality control.

11. We found that the changing from a simple cone filter to the AGS-R made a profound difference in how the car reacted to throttle inputs at both low and high speeds.


PLEASE NOTE: The AGS-R pictured on this page has been painted. The AGS-R that ships out comes in a black gel coat that needs to be prepped and painted.
M7 Pre-Intercooler Charge Pipe
Our Price: $135.00

The M7 Pre-Intercooler Charge Pipe is a silicone hose that runs from the turbocharger’s outlet to the intercooler’s inlet, replacing the stock piping between these two components. The OEM parts were designed from the factory to silence any sound by breaking up the air path with restrictive piping.


With the M7 Pre-Intercooler Charge Pipe, the charged air coming from the turbocharger sees nothing but the smooth inner walls of the tubing and smooth mandrel bends allowing uninterrupted airflow to the intercooler.


On the dyno, installation of the M7 Pre-Intercooler Charge Pipe resulted in gains of 3.6 horsepower and 11.3 ft-lb of torque AT THE WHEELS!

Increase your MINI’s performance while sprucing up the engine bay with a little color.

Available in Black, Red, or Blue finish!
M7 Front Mount Intercooler
Our Price: $799.00

Following the success of the DFIC for the R53, we here at M7 knew that the turbo R56 owners couldn't wait for such a great enhancement in performance. We took all of the great ideas behind the DFIC and brought them to the M7 R56 Front-Mount-Intercooler.


• The core is much larger in comparison to the stock intercooler. It's exposed to the entire opening in the front bumper thus allowing for better cooling ability, all while looking clean enough to be OEM.
• Core fin design allows for minimal back pressure ensuring max airflow through the intercooler.
• Dual monitoring ports allows for an easy way to monitor boost pressure or charge temperature without drilling into other areas of the engine.
• Utilization of the stock charge pipes means no other modifications or new parts are necessary.
• Made in the good ol' USA for availability and better quality control
• Simple installation with hand tools and floor jack.

Avoid the dreaded heat-soak and give your R56 the cooling it deserves with the M7 R56 Front Mount Intercooler!
R56 M7 Hose coupling
Our Price: $49.00

The new R56 M7 Hose coupling is solving the "how cool is my car running" in an inexpensive easy way. The M7 hose coupling is a CNC machined billet piece that we Anodized black to prevent corrosion.

To fit most thermal probes on the market, we added an 1/8"npt threaded hole so if you plan to install the part in advance of adding a temp gauge, a plug and hose clamps is delivered with the part.

The install would be a fast 15-20 minutes, and can be accomplished by
almost anyone in your drive way. No cutting needed.
M7 Aerogel Turbo Heatshield (R56)
Our Price: $199.00

The M7 Aerogel Turbo Heatshield is designed to fit over the stock turbo using pre-existing mounting points. It's lined with a custom Aerogel blanket to minimize the heat flowing to the rest of the engine bay. Aerogel is nanotechnology with amazing heat rejection qualities (which is why NASA is also using this material in a variety of applications). We've been using Aerogel for a while on the R53 and wanted to bring its heat-rejecting characteristics over to the R56.

The M7 Aerogel Turbo Heatshield is black powdercoated to give it a sleek, OEM appearance. All necessary mounting hardware is included. Using pre-existing mounting points in the engine bay eliminates the need to drill or add extra brackets. 15-25 minutes is the most you'll need!
