The most complete charge pipe setup I've seen

Bmw doubles · 09-04-2016, 12:34 PM

Oh eBay how you continue to a part of the community and yet we deny you like a like a bad drunk decision.

Has anyone seen a more complete set? This one is almost there and reasonably priced. I'm concerned about fitment

I have the FTP chargepipe, just the larger of those 2 pipes. Fit is great except it was a bitch to press the oring fitting over the throttle body. Once the oring squashes from use I bet its a non issue, but a fresh plump oring was wtf difficult to get over the throttle body.

You can buy just the boost pipe / outlet as well, nice comparison pic here:

I think I'll probably buy this to install with my Pure Stage 1.

Very nice! This would be for more of a preventative maintenance correct from the weaker OEM CP?

How is this different compared to something like the ER Chargepipe?

AWF87M2 · 09-05-2016, 09:17 PM

I've had both but am currently running the ER due to the early batches of the FTP not fitting correctly. The er I ordered is andoized black as opposed to the spray can like finish on the ftp. The FTP is easier to connect to the inter cooler portion because it uses a standard clamp as oppose to the T bolt style clamp included with the er, which you really have to tighten it many turns so it won't pop off, the er comes with one extra meth bung. Overall the edge goes to the ER for the overall build fit and finish.

You get zero performance from aftermarket charge pipes. Just more of an insurance item that everyone should get

I can't confirm but people say better throttle response *\(^o^)/*

The throttle response improvement is negligible. You can barely feel the change if the car is stock. The improvement is much more noticeable once the car is tuned.

Interesting. I've yet to do this mod. I wonder if there still a difference with my sprint booster. Throttle response is immediate with the SB set to race mode. Even with the SB there's still an inherit turbo lag, wonder if that improves with this mod.
