FTP Charge pipe review
This is my story
I ordered VRFS Race IC with ER CP form my Bmw M235i Xdrive. The ER CP did not fit at all. I had to send it back. So I heard about FTP Motorsport from Taiwan. I made contact with Kayo their CEO. He was quick to answer all my questions. I ordered the CP and paid on Friday. The package was sent on Monday and I had it at home on Wednesday and installed it today. Quality: Arrived well packaged. Nice quality welds and clean bends. All hardwere included even a new throttle body clip. Box marked with FRAGILE. Fitment: Great. I had the CP installed today by a shop. Everything fit well and there were no issues. Although space was tight up there but when fitted it was perfect. CP is a a litle bit dusty on the pic. But IRL this is a real quality piece.

Maybe your fit problems came from manual vs. automatic editions of the charge pipe; they are different depending on the trans. What was the cost for these?

Looking good. Never heard of these but glad that it all worked out for you.
Edit: My ocd says "take those stickers off" :P D Last edited by Dylan86; 04-14-2017 at 09:43 PM.. |

ER CP and FMIC piping fits perfect on Dinan FMIC.

I dont have any plans for meth. Had it in my 335i E92 for about 9 years ago. Had it once never again. |
