ER Charge Pipe
Hi all
I bought a brand new ER charge pipe a while back for F series N55 from the forum. Took it in to the shop and the mechanic told me it is missing the barb fitting before the throttle valve shown here: http://www.evolutionracewerks.com/node/236 He tells me it is the wrong CP. Any ideas? Did I get the wrong CP? I have a 2014 M235i (automatic, RWD). PS. if anyone has the installation instructions and can direct me to them that would be awesome. Cheers

View post on imgur.com You can see it's missing that fitting in the middle of the pipe. Other than that it's exactly the same...

I have a feeling you are right as I can't think of any other explanation...
The seller didn't mention AT or MT and stupidly I didn't know they had different CP's.

Don't worry guys, turns out seller sent me the wrong CP.
A bit of a PITA but all good.

Not sure where you got it from but most sellers on here do have a mandatory selection for drivetrain and transmission.

Yea, you need to select RWD or AWD from the drop downs.
If the seller you bought it from didn't have that then they aren't familiar with the products they are selling, which is odd. |

The OEM charge pipe is prone to failure, it will fail sooner or later. If you run anything over stock boost you are guaranteed to have to change your CP soon.

Break was at the lip of the longer pipe. Car is stock. Changed to ER as I've lost confidence in the OEM part. |

Yea it's about a 30 min installation, might be a little longer your first time around but it's a very basic and straight forward mod otherwise.

Since this thread has been revived... just thought I'd let you all know that the CP was the right one, they just forgot to weld a bung on But I bought a new one and it's all good now.
