If anyone is interested, due to my current financial circumstances, I am willing to sell the custom inlet I previously bought from AZ-MCRacer. If anyone is interested, PM me. It can be shipped asap. Hopefully by the time I'm ready for it, there will be another batch being made.

I am test fitting one of these to my F25 tomorrow, hopefully then AZ-MCRacer can start selling them to X3/X4 owners upgrading to PS2. We have the exact same engine layout from what I can tell.

I was looking at the F25 inlet pipe on realeom.com and it looks close, but I think the straight section i slonger on the F25. I also looked yesterday for someone interested with an F15, but the upper end of the inlet is an oval and quite a bit different.

I'll have a pretty good idea of fitment tomorrow. If I have to buy the upper section for an F10 series then so be it... That would be the only piece I need to make it work if my upper piece doesn't fit for some reason.

I think the only actual difference is that the X3 inlet has a few plastic pieces to hold different coolant and oil lines. The 5 series inlet appears to be smooth, but from the pictures I have found they look to be the same part as far as flowing air is concerned.

Either way, excited to see!

Good luck, I definitely hope you can do something to improve the stock one if yours has the same restriction we have with the F10 stock inlet.

I'm not sure when I will do the install, but I just got the part in and confirmed it's the same. My hunch was correct and the only difference from the 5 series and F25/F26 part is some extra plastic that holds coolant/oil hoses against it. Otherwise it's the same, weird, obtusely shaped inlet.

Edit: Famous last words, it didn't fit

Bad news and good news for someone else here.

Got to dropping my X3 off at the shop and it turns out the connection from the inlet to the clean air pipe is different between the F10 and F25. So I've got one of these that I'll ship out for what I paid for it: $375

PM me if you want it.

Is this the same one made by Az MCRacer? If so I'll take it off your hands.

You can get a brand new one from FTP motor sports for $180 shipped. Good quality https://www.ftpmotorsport.com.tw/pro...5i-intake-pipe

I think that one still tapers down like the OE pipe. It's definitely better since it's metal though.

I don't think it does, looks identical to AZ.

Considering that the FTP inlet is using the stock gasket, I'm guessing it's slightly smaller diameter than AZ-MCRacer's and an obvious, if somewhat inferior, knock off.

Such is the market, though. It's probably adequate and certainly an improvement over stock, which really chokes down inside due to the thick plastic right before the turbo.

FTP told me that their inlet pipe is 57mm width and that they have their own gasket. I dont know the width of the oem one.

I'll keep having them made if there is demand, eventually there will be a cheaper solution to everything. The ones I am selling are made 100% in the US. I can't compete with the price of the FTP and won't try. But if there is demand I will keep offering them.
