The HPS Performance black 3-inch intake charge pipe for the BMW N55B30 engine was designed with one goal in mind: reliability. On our 2011 BMW 335i test vehicle, it was discovered that the factory charge pipe was manufactured with inferior materials. At just 60,000 miles, the factory BMW charge pipe was barely hanging on at the throttle body connector. The HPS R&D team reverse-engineered the original part to provide a product that met all criteria for durability, performance, and style. The HPS charge pipe is manufactured using a durable billet CNC flange. It includes HPS's signature high-temperature 4-ply reinforced silicone couplers and heavy-duty 100% stainless steel T-bolt clamps for connecting to the intercooler pipe. The kit includes a new O-ring, as original equipment throttle body connectors are known to deteriorate over time. The HPS turbo charge pipe also includes a 1/8" NPT bung, providing the option to run methanol injection or a boost gauge (and nitrous systems). Installation can be completed in under 30 minutes using basic hand tools, with no permanent modifications or ECU re-flashing required. Replace your broken charge pipe with the HPS Performance charge pipe for N55-equipped E8x/E9x vehicles. CARB compliant. Fits 2013-2015 BMW X1 xDrive35i 3.0L Turbo (N55).

Our entire product database is based on North American vehicles (USDM), so please verify compatibility with Japanese vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (Please feel free to contact us if you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle. Our support team will be happy to look into it for you.)
If you order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and vehicle model in the tabs on our homepage, it does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese models without modification.

Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on circuits, private property, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.
