Hi, any boost leaks from the wrinkle paint finish? Do the silicone couplers seal nice? Was thinking about using a thin film of RTV?
I have a 2011 335is that has only 42k miles. The factory stock Charge Pipe cracked so I have to replace it.. What U show in the video the best in the market for the money & I notice U removed the stock air filters, what do U recommend that may add some more HP but at the same time not molesting the car like many that cut the car to fit a larger oil cooler…
Is silicone or grease better. I see you use both on your channel
What does that sticker say?
There is no comparison to this guy's tutorials. I'm willing to bet that not even the official bmw tech tutorials don't come close to this guy's videos.
I have bmw 740 Li F02 N54 is this the same ?
does anyone else have the problem that the charge pipe can be wiggled around. i put the c clamp and the o ring in properly. it seems like the pipe has play.
Excellent DIY thanks!
I just subbed brother I also have a 2008 535xi she a beast stock wanna upgrade her to stage 1 but I feel like before I go stage one I wanna do this so I don’t gotta worry bout coming back to redo charge pipe Awsome video and I subbed brother BMW fam for life……
Thanks for the video, I will be ordering mine tomorrow
I have one question i did exactly the same but engine light came on with powerlose warning. What did i do wrong? Any advice the rings i received didnt fit on the rubbers it was to small i think factory falt. So i did tyripped it just for one day tomorrow i gonna buy the rings. Maybe it leaks air because of it what do u think thanks.
Can you install a blow off valve on these?
So I’m looking at this charge pipe, would it be worth it to pay the extra 250 bucks for the hks bov, or would I just be fine using stock dump valves
Nice video, do you think it's worth upgrading the diverter valve pipes at the same time, or are the oem diverter pipes good enough?
Yo that's a clean diy but for some reason my chargepipe from vrsf doesn't slip on like yours it gets to the park where it lined up but doesn't actually go in its rubbing metal and metal even my buddy cant put it on
VRSF IS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE
Can someone help, I've been running upgraded chargepipe and mhd tune for months now and all of a sudden the cclip won't hold the pipe anymore and keeps popping off during any heavy acceleration
PEOPLE WATCH THESE VIDEOS TO SEE HOW YOU REMOVE THINGS AND INSTALL THINGS. SO CUTTING THE VID TO YOU ALREADY REMOVING THE CHARGE PIPE IS RIDICULOUS. NEEDED TO SEE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Personally would have taken a reference photo of the intake pipe and not applied grease
What kind of grease did you put in the elbow to be able to move it around/install the charge pipe?
