Turn up the boost with a tune and find that your $400.00 factory charge pipe has broken apart? You are not alone, as this is a common situation for many BMW N55 enthusiasts, and sometimes you don't even in this situation. The factory charge pipe is made out of plastic and was not designed to handle the higher boost levels. Well, fear not! The solution is here! Replace it with a higher flowing, stronger aluminum charge pipe! Made 100% of 6061 high grade aluminum, this will never happen again (backed by Evolution Racewerks' Limited Lifetime Warranty)! The OEM Charge Pipe equipped on the N55 was never designed to hold high boost. Once the car is tuned the stock Charge Pipe will begin to leak, losing your boost and your horsepower. Evolution Racewerks has addressed this problem with their new N55 Charge Pipe.

Charge Pipe Color Options:

Mirror Finished Polished
Hard Black Anodized
Brushed Aluminum

Evolution Racewerks has finally released their N55 Charge Pipe! ModBargains is proud to have been one of the first to offer it to our customers. The Charge Pipe Upgrade Pipe is available in the same 2 finish. It is available in a mirror polish finish and is also available in Evolution Racewerks' Type III Hard Black Anodizing for the guys that want the stealthy, factory look. An added benefit of the Type III Hard Black Anodizing is that it hardens the aluminum piping and makes it more durable against accidental damage (like dropping the pipe).

Design

Often ignored, charged intake airflow characteristics greatly affect throttle response, turbo lag and ultimately maximum power potential. Smooth bends and minimal obstructions are ideal. ER used 6061 aluminum (lightweight) mandrel bent piping to ensure smooth transitions. The upper pipe features 3"" piping to match up to the factory throttle body (factory pipe is 2.5""), ensuring maximum flow without obstruction.

Evolution Racewerks' testing of the N55 F30 charge pipe had shown it could hold quite a bit of boost. During our testing, we had pressure tested this connection up to 25 PSI. The reason why they stopped at 25 PSI was because at 25 PSI, one of the intake pipes on the turbo blew off and we could not test any higher. However, we were confident that it would easily hold over 25 PSI as the throttle body flange showed no signs of failing. Also, keep in mind, this type of connection is used throughout the engine, in many crutial areas like the coolant radiator system as well as the clutch system. If BMW did not believe in the durability of this type of connection, they would not use it in such important areas.

What are Meth Bungs?

Evolution Racewerks has added 1/8"" NPT threaded bung (for methanol or nos injectors) to their charge pipes.This allows for quick and easy installation of methanol/nitrous injectors that are used in methanol injection systems and nitrous systems. Each charge pipe comes with 2 meth bungs. Each 1/8"" NPT bung will come with a plug so that you can run with or without the methanol injector. Also, the 1/8"" NPT bung can be used as a boost source to connect your boost gauge or other devices to.

Ideal connection compared to the silicone hose and hose clamp connection found in all other aftermarket charge pipes available in the marketplace
Precision CNC machined MAP sensor flange ensures leak free connection
Factory sound baffle, which causes turbulence in the factory pipe, is removed
Optional Type III Hard Black Anodizing (for stealth and OEM look). Hard anodizing helps improve durability of intercooler piping - Resists bent or dented piping

Complete Your Charge Pipe Upgrade with an ER Turbo to Intercooler Charge Pipe (TIC)

Take a look at your factory rubber charge pipe that runs from the turbocharger to your intercooler. Grab it and squeeze the rubber hose and you will be surprised how easily it collapses. Now, imagine how that charge pipe is under boost! Our new turbocharger to intercooler (TIC) charge pipe replaces that rubber hose with a new 6061 aluminum (lightweight) mandrel bent piping. Often ignored, charged intake airflow characteristics greatly affect throttle response, turbo lag and ultimately maximum power potential. Smooth bends and minimal obstructions are ideal.

Airflow in a pipe tends to travel in the outer edges of the pipe. Hard piping like Evolution Racewerks' TIC charge pipe keeps the inner diameter of the constant and prevents it from ballooning or collapsing. The results? Better throttle response and decreased turbo lag! Pair it with ER's N55 Charge Pipes and have full metal hard piping in your entire intercooler system!
