Inlets should be universal to any n55. I have one available as well - I have yet to sell it as a separate unit but I suppose I could. It flares out to a 3”. It has the correct curves and offset to clear the timing chain tensioner, thermostat and top of the water Pump… a lot of trail and error to get it that big and clear all 3 of those components.

The F30 N55 inlets won't work, as they exit through the front of the engine rather than the side.

It would just depend on where you are trying to get plumbing wise. The f30’s have a nice pass through for a front mount grill, b58’s already have this. I would like to do it for the f30.

No way you could get it through the front of the engine bay in the F10 N55 chassis. If you take a look at the F30 N55 engine bay and the F10 N55 engine bay, it becomes quite clear why.

I wouldn’t want to! I already have it coming in through the passenger side ducting. Shortest path possible.
