BMC Carbon Racing Filter Induction System | Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560 Coupe
If you are looking to squeeze every bit of power and throttle response out of your Lamborghini V10, the stock factory plastic airboxes are the first things that need to go. The BMC Carbon Racing Filter induction system (Part Number: CRF779/01) completely replaces your standard restrictive air filters and intake boxes with a full carbon fiber setup. BMC builds these kits specifically for high-end supercars to force a direct, cool stream of air straight into the engine intake manifolds.The main housing is crafted entirely from premium carbon fiber, which acts as a highly effective thermal barrier. It keeps engine bay heat away from the incoming air, ensuring your Gallardo sucks in cold, dense air for maximum combustion efficiency. Inside, BMC uses their signature multi-layer cotton filtration material soaked in low-viscosity oil, which catches tiny dust particles without slowing down the fast-moving airflow.Features and Benefits
- Real Carbon Fiber Housing: Built with an incredibly light and strong carbon fiber shell that stops engine bay heat from warming up the intake air, keeping your engine feeding on cold air.
- Massive Airflow Boost: The straight-through design cuts down on the air turbulence and restrictions common in standard factory plastic boxes, giving you a sharper throttle response.
- Premium Cotton Filtration: Uses multi-layer oiled cotton fabric that filters out microscopic dirt and debris while allowing a significantly higher volume of air to pass through cleanly.
- Washable and Reusable: You never have to buy another intake filter for your car. This racing filter can be cleaned, re-oiled, and dropped back into place whenever it gets dirty.
- Aggressive V10 Intake Sound: By removing the thick, sound-deadening stock baffles, this kit lets you hear the raw, mechanical growl of the Gallardo engine under hard acceleration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will this BMC intake system cause my car to throw a check engine light?
No, it will not. BMC engineers this kit to work perfectly with your factory Mass Airflow (MAF) sensors and electronic settings. As long as everything is clamped down tight and there are no vacuum leaks behind the filters, your engine computer will adapt to the clean airflow normally without triggering any fault codes.How often do I need to clean the internal cotton filters?
For normal street use, we recommend inspecting and cleaning the cotton filter element every 15,000 miles. However, if you regularly drive in highly dusty environments or take your Gallardo to open track days, you should check it sooner. You can use a standard BMC cleaning and oiling kit to refresh the filters.Can I install this kit myself in my garage?
While it is a direct bolt-on kit that replaces the factory parts, working inside the tight engine bay of a Lamborghini Gallardo can be challenging. It requires basic hand tools to swap the airboxes and transfer the sensors. If you are not completely comfortable working around tight exotic engine components, we highly recommend taking it to a professional performance shop.
