1:1 Design Replica

The exterior shape of Karbonius CSL airbox mimics the original BMW Motorsport design

Improved trumpets.

The trumpets' shapes were slightly enlarged, and revised for improved flow. They are made from carbon instead of plastic.

Complete carbon construction.

Made using the "dry carbon" method: pre-preg resin, cured in autoclave.

OE fitment.

The original bungs were replicated in machined aluminum, anodized in black.

Installation Hardware

I have curated installation kits per the E46 M3's specific production years and transmission types using Genuine BMW products.

BMW M Power sticker included.

The signature BMW M Power sticker is provided with the airbox. If you plan on installing it, I recommend it is applied and re-cleared for a seamless finish.

Optional matching carbon snorkel.

The Karbonius design mimics the original BMW M snorkel, without the flap mechanism. If spec'e with the CSL airbox, it will come in matching weave pattern and finish.

Build journal: A Special series
Buying the airbox is only half the way there.

These CSL airboxes are complex - the engineering & design expertise is not only for performance, sound but most importantly: reliability.

In this Special Series, I document my extensive experiences with CSL airboxes with 3x different airboxes I have tested.

I document the hardware checklist, the tuning dilemma between MAP v Alpha N, installation notes and my driving impressions with proper sound clips.

Cheers,
