AEM Cold Air Intake System – 21-719C for MINI Cooper S & JCW (N14 / R56 without MAF Sensor)

High‑Flow Design | Optimised Airflow | OEM Scoop Integration

Product Description:

The AEM 21‑719C Cold Air Intake is a premium performance upgrade for 2007–2010 MINI Cooper S & JCW R56 models with the N14 engine but without a MAF sensor. By replacing the restrictive stock intake and converting the fake OEM hood scoop into a functional air duct, this system delivers improved throttle response, torque, and horsepower.

Developed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and validated with flow bench testing, the 21‑719C is engineered for maximum airflow while maintaining a smooth, reliable signal to the ECU.

Key Features:

• Direct‑fit design for N14 engines without a MAF sensor

• Turns OEM hood scoop into a real cold‑air duct

• AEM Dryflow™ oil‑free filter – washable and reusable

• Mandrel‑bent aluminium intake tube for smooth, unrestricted airflow

• Optimised airbox and couplers for consistent torque and top‑end power

• Includes AEM turbo heat shield for extra thermal protection

• Covered by AEM’s Lifetime Limited Warranty

What’s Included:

• 1x AEM Dryflow™ high‑flow filter (oil‑free)

• 1x Custom AEM airbox

• 1x AEM bonnet air duct

• 1x Mandrel‑bent aluminium intake tube

• 1x Silicone hose to turbo connection

• 1x Turbo heat shield

• Full fitting hardware and instructions

⚠️ Important Notes:

• ✅ For MINI R56 N14 engines without a MAF sensor (2007–2010)

• ❌ If your car has a MAF sensor, use the AEM 21‑699C Intake instead

• ❌ Only the AEM strut brace fits with this intake – other braces will foul the intake box

• 📷 New versions no longer include the filter reminder/monitor as shown in older photos

Performance Gains (Based on AEM Testing):

• +14.14 hp @ 5,400 rpm

• +11.3 ft‑lbs torque @ 3,300 rpm
