VRSF Charge Pipe on Stock N55
Currently running only the VRSF CP upgrade on my N55 F30. I'm planning to do other mods but not in a rush to do anything, just wanted to make sure it's safe to run on the stock engine. I have a rough idle sometimes and have had the P112F code appear and disappear, and was wondering if adding the other supporting mods with the charge pipe would help anything run smoother. I'm very new to the modding scene and all help is appreciated. Hopefully this isn't a dumb question lol thanks all!

when you installed your charge pipe did you have to replace the mounting bracked that holds the bottom of the pipe to a small bracket? My stock CF just blew and i was looking at vrsf and er for a replacement but noticed the plastic grommet holding the stock pipe in broke but cant find any info on the mount online?

Im pretty sure its not needed with an aftermarket CF and yes its a plastic grommet holding the bottom of the stock CF to a metal bracket. I found some install guides for vrsf and tuner and they mentioned the bracket not being needed after the install.

In that case...yeah, none of the aftermarket pipes have it.

I just ordered the vrsf one this morning but I can update once it comes and I install it if youd like since this will be the first part i replace on my own so hopefully it fits good enough.

Pretty sure VRSF rubbing issues were only on very early iterations (several years ago), and only for x-drive. The main thing to watch out for is boost leaks from the connection points.
