N55 Behind the Grill Intake DIY
OK, so I know there are a few threads on this, but hey... mine's different cause, well, it's mine. Plus everything here is pretty much sourced from Amazon prime with 2 day delivery. It was WAY more expensive than I thought, but oh well. So here we go... still waiting on a few other parts to come in but here is a teaser...

well.... if it's under the $449 that MST wants for their intake, I'm very much interested. This would remove a good what? 7-ish ft of intake tubing? You with your upgraded turbo would see a gain from this!

It should work! intake has identical routing as the N55 on an F10. What may differ is the angle and/ or length of the segment going forward to the opening between the pax headlight and the pax kidney grille . And just like the F10s, the X5 also has an opening on that side as the N63-equipped versions use a scoop on that side as well

Nice work homie.
I did something similar not too long ago. I'll sell all the parts I made for mine plus extra couplers and pieces if someone is interested. Don't want jack the thread so DM me or I'll create a separate post.

Like to share where you got that mafs adapter and whats the size of the tubing you're using? Looks like you added another spacer in between the mafs and the tubing, was that for a reason?
