Evolution Racewerks BMW N55 Charge Pipe 2011-2012 BMW 135i / 335i

OVERVIEW

The Evolution Racewerks Charge Pipe Kit for the E chassis N55 single turbo engine fits the 135i, 335i and X1 xDrive35i. It replaces the factory charge pipe with lightweight high grade 6061 aluminium and is covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

The pipe is throttle body matched at 3" and retains the factory style o-ring throttle body lock flange. The flange is precision CNC machined so the connection is leak free and quick to take apart, which Evolution Racewerks considers a better solution than the silicone hose and hose clamp joint used by other aftermarket diverter valve pipes. A CNC machined MAP sensor flange keeps that connection sealed, and beaded pipe ends with T-bolt clamps stop the intercooler piping coming off under boost.

Evolution Racewerks states the pipe increases throttle response and decreases turbo lag, and it remains compatible with the factory electronic diverter valve.
