@Sadclown , chargepipe will not give you any power gain. But it will increase the response to the car since the chargepipe doesn't blown up under boost, so all of the pressure is not reduced.
The main important thing on the chargepipe upgrade is the peace of mind that it will not break on you and leave you stranded in the middle of nowhere.

Thx @[r33_RGSport]. That's what I gathered from some of the searches, we are doing it to prevent issues with a weak part. I was just curious if sound of engine changes after replacing. I see many of the manufacturers state an increase in throttle response and decrease in turbo lag, which seems to describe better flow?

I haven't had mine off in a while but still loving the extra kick. I'll have to see how mine feels when I take it off for the next service. |

Well, other than better flow, the aftermarket chargepipe is made out of aluminum pipe. During boost pressure, it won't expand like the OEM plastic one, with that, all of the boost are directly delivered to the engine. Therefore, less turbo lag and better response.

Never had a piggy back tune before and I just installed the RaceChip Ultimate yesterday. I bought it used from a member on a different forum. Setup was easy as described in the pictures above.
I set the unit to the recommended factory settings and I feel a big difference already in sport mode. I'm still feeling this out but I'm already looking at getting a charge pipe from BMS with the extra power being put down.

Even though it is also aluminum, but a thin wall, do have tendency to crack or break. Also, rough finish and few flashes will cause damage to the motor when it got sucked in. Just a heads up. I wouldn't buy a burrito from a steakhouse.

Are there any other places you would recommend that have charge pipes for F10 535i?

I just checked BMS website and the chrome finish charge pipe they have pictured appears to be the same one you are selling with the same ER branding. (Unless they ship you something different) But you have it priced cheaper plus you have it in Black which is what I'm looking for.

bin01123 I know the product you're seeing might look so attractive due to the price, but be warned sometimes. Go with a reputable brand such as the one RG has and others sell as well.
ER for sure. Since you have RaceChip it takes some adapting to your driving and engine, stock setting is def good to start and letting the engine adapt. You're in GA so you will have good 93 octane, you will be able to go 1 setting at a time. Best tip is after a tank of gas on each setting.

Thanks for the advice as I'm really grateful for this forum and the knowledge shared here. I will be purchasing an ER charge pipe but not from BMS. And thanks for the advise on the tuning with the RaceChip. I have a few other MODs in mind but I'm trying to do one at a time.
