Upgrade your OEM Gen1 B58 BMW charge pipe with our durable aluminum replacement, designed to prevent charge pipe failure.
Crafted from high-quality aluminum with a glossy black powder coat finish, this replacement charge pipe boasts CNC machined flanges, optional 1/8" NPT methanol bungs, and OEM-style mounting hardware for a seamless fit. It also features a vent-to-atmosphere blow-off valve flange for enhanced integration and performance.
The kit includes:
BMS Elite Aluminum Charge Pipe TurboSmart Race-Port BOV (3) 1/8" NPT Bung Plugs with Thread Sealer (1) 3" to 2.5" Silicone Reducer Coupler (2) 1/8" NPT to 1/4" Push-lock Fittings (1) 1/4" Push Tube Line (1) B58 Boost Tap Adapter Associated Hardware (Clamps, O-rings, Screws)
The factory B58 charge pipe is made from plastic to reduce weight and manufacturing costs. While this is great for the production line and the sticker price, it doesn't hold up well as the engine ages or in the case of increased power.
Replacing the weak plastic stock part with a solid aluminum one like this will ensure proper functionality under higher levels of boost and eliminate wear caused by the heating and cooling of plastic pipes. You can also safely turn up the boost on your B58 once this kit is installed, and not worry about the problematic factory piece.
Whether you have a stock car and are looking for improved throttle response and peace of mind, or a high boost monster in search of reliability in your big horsepower build, this charge pipe is the solution you’ve been looking for!
Design Features and Benefits:
The upper pipe is constructed from 6063 aluminum for increased durability over the factory plastic charge pipe. Can withstand higher boost pressures while offering OE-like fitment.
Billet CNC throttle body flange for OEM fitment.
Black powder coated for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance.
Lower pipe is constructed of 4-ply reinforced silicone hose and a 6061-T6 black anodized aluminum coupler to retain factory fitment to the turbo.
Silicone provides a smooth transition from turbo outlet to the upper aluminum pipe. The silicone also provides good wear resistance wear the charge pipe is in close contact with the turbo inlet and coolant hoses.
The turbocharger coolant line plays a critical role in your vehicle's cooling system, helping to regulate heat and ensure the turbocharger operates efficiently. These lines, which include both inlet and return components, are typically constructed from durable materials such as metal, rubber, or plastic composites.
Over time, repeated heat cycles and aging can cause these lines to degrade, leading to cracks, leaks, and compromised cooling performance. If left unresolved, a failing coolant line can result in engine overheating and potential turbocharger damage. For vehicles with composite plastic lines, replacing them during any removal or maintenance is highly recommended to maintain a secure seal and reliable operation.
