VTT is proud to offer the very best charge pipe solution for the BMW B58 Gen 1 platforms. This system completely does away with the restrictive, and muli-connection stock charge pipe system, and replaces it with a single 6-ply, Heat Resistant, Wire reinforced silicone charge pipes rated at over 200 psi. They are molded for the perfect fit in your engine bay, while not sacrificing anything in the way of flow or size. They also completely isolate your charge air from any additional heat soak coming in from the engine or ambient heat. Another huge benefit is your vehicle goes from 4 connections to only TWO which are barbed and has many small ridges which dig into the silicone so it’s impossible for the pipe to blow off. This means no more blown charge pipe connections on the track or road leaving you stranded.
There are other options on the market, but they only address the problem in half measures. Some offer silicone connectors that are attached to hard pipes and are notorious for blowing, but they do nothing to address the heat soak issue or the number of connections needed. This kit solves ALL of those problems and does so at a lower cost.
Install is very easy and takes about an hour if you are inexperienced with working on your own car, can take as little as 30-45 minutes if you have had it apart a few times.
Dimensions for the pipes are as follows: Hot Side Pipe: 64mm or 2.50″ on the connection to the turbo outlet opening up immediately to 77mm or 3″ and remaining a FULL 3″ to the throttle body inlet.
Please Note: THESE PIPES WILL FIT ALL AFTERMARKET MANIFOLDS WE HAVE TESTED, SOME REQUIRE SLIGHT TRIMMING OF THE 3″ END
