Turn up the boost with a tune and find your factory charge pipe break apart? Fear not! The solution is here! Replace your 230i/330i/430i/530i intake chargepipe with a higher flowing, stronger aluminum charge pipe. Made of 6061 high grade aluminum, this will never happen again, backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty!
Often ignored, charged intake airflow characteristics greatly affect throttle response, turbo lag and ultimately maximum power potential. Smooth bends and minimal obstructions are ideal. 6061 aluminum (lightweight) mandrel bent piping was used to ensure smooth transitions. The upper pipe features 3.0" piping to match up to the factory throttle body (factory pipe is 2.5"), ensuring maximum flow without obstruction. The MAP sensor flange is also designed to mimic the factory setup. The CNC machined MAP sensor flange utilizes the factory o-ring seal for strength and reliability.
The ER B46 Charge Pipe is available in 3 finish options: Mirror Polish, Type III Hard Black Anodizing, or Brushed Aluminum. 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).
Two 1/8" NPT threaded bungs (for methanol injectors) are included. This allows quick and easy installation of methanol injectors. The 1/8" NPT bungs come with a plug so that you can run with or without the methanol injector. This is perfect for those who do not have the Methanol Injection yet but plan to do so in the future. Or it's the perfect place to source a boost gauge.
