OVERVIEW
The Evolution Racewerks Charge Pipe Kit with TIAL BOV flange replaces the factory diverter valve charge pipe on the 2007–2010 BMW 535i (E60) with the N54 twin-turbo engine. It is built specifically for the E60 535i and comes from the same development work Evolution Racewerks did on its 135i Time Attack race car, where the factory diverter valves could not hold up to high boost.
The kit replaces the diverter valves with a TIAL-pattern blow-off valve flange and uses smooth bends with minimal obstructions to keep charge air velocity up, for better throttle response, less turbo lag and more power potential. Instead of the silicone-hose connection most competitors use, it keeps a factory-style O-ring and C-clip lock flange at the throttle body and a CNC machined MAP sensor flange with the factory O-ring seal, so the connections stay leak-free under boost.
