VRSF Chargepipe install help
Hi, I'm attempting to install a VRSF Chargepipe in my 2015 335xi. I was able to get the stock Chargepipe out through the top, but I can't get the new one in through the top or bottom. I can't seem to get enough clearance to get it in. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Yup, thanks guys! It was much easier to install by installing the top half first and then connecting the bottom.
I also ordered and installed the vrsf 5" FMIC. My only complaint is I ordered it in December and still got a defective one with Fan tabs too long and no screws included. I was able to bend the tabs in good enough though. |

yea. i ran in to the same thing. i fished it down from the top with the silcone sleeve loose and then from the bottom reached up to rotate the clamps around to tighten down enough.
if i had to do it again id do the two piece and be done in half the time.

Vacuum port locations, pipe routing and a few other details differentiate the four different styles of F chassis N55 cars which is why unfortunately we're limited to 4 different pipes for one car.
We're actually in the process of compiling multiple 3d scans of each engine bay in order to find a one pipe fits all solution and I'm happy to say we're pretty close launch. We'll have an update shortly! Last edited by Tiago@VRSF; 01-17-2019 at 06:09 PM.. |

Brilliant idea! so long as the sensor and vacuum line locations fit without adding anything that would be awesome. Im not sure how a rwd and xi would be able to use the same since all the awd components create an issue. Curious to see the outcome of this.
