Partee Racing's carbon fiber and fabrication division, in partnership with EAE Motorsports, is pleased to offer the first commercially available complete (top and bottom) carbon fiber plenum for the E39 M5. Borne of the S62's illustrious racing heritage, our carbon fiber plenum mounts directly to the throttle bodies using stainless bolts in lieu of the stock studs with only thin gaskets in between, thereby eliminating the necessity of plenum plates altogether. Aside from eliminating heat-retaining metal under the plenum, this has the advantage of allowing us to make the plenum top taller, increasing the internal volume of the plenum, without changing the overall height of the plenum or creating hood clearance problems. Similarly, our plenum eliminates the four internal mounting stanchions as gratuitous (given the strength of the carbon fiber), thereby creating additional internal volume. Increasing the height of the plenum top also benefits users of our carbon fiber velocity stacks because it avoids having to "clip," angle and shorten the Cylinder 2 velocity stack. (Early adopters of our carbon fiber velocity stacks wil receive a complimentary new Cylinder 2 velocity stack with a purchase of our plenum).
Intakes and oil separator holes are made from 6061 billet aluminum, as are the mating rings for the plenum top and bottom. To ensure plug and play installation, the bottom mating ring accepts the stock plenum gasket, and aluminum hose bungs are used for the idle air control valve air intake and the plenum oil drain (can be upgraded to AN connectors of your choice if you want to replace the stock rubber hoses with braided or other aftermarket hoses).
As with all of Partee Racing's carbon fiber products, our plenum is made from aerospace quality pre-preg carbon fiber that is baked in our self-designed and built autoclave, formed from molds cut with our CNC router, and finished by hand in our paint booth, all in Partee Racing's Danville, Virginia shop (near Virginia International Raceway).
The best part: Unlike the previously available custom carbon bottom plenums designed for race engines, this plenum is affordable, with an introductory price of $3k for BOTH top AND bottom. And for those who want to go deep, we will throw in a set of our carbon fiber velocity stacks for another $2k. So for $5k, one can have entire plenum and a set of our stacks. That is an introductory price only and is not permanent.
