CTS is very similar to MST I remember the 2 companies getting into a back and forth argument on Instagram about this

Seems to be nearly identical to MST v2. I just looked back at my album and its 2.2225 in ID.

Yes, you would need to dig back through this thread to find the measurements. I only had OEM and MST v2 in my photo album since those are the ones i owned. https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...1656337&page=8
I would say the MST is also a better overall design that pure for airflow, and the bench testing from VW (different platform, same idea) essentially proved this point. |

Keep in mind I used a very old school Vernier caliper. It requires skill and patience to read properly...Neither of which I have :-) It is at a minimum 2.21. The caliper was a bit loose inside, it's quite possible 2.2225 to be correct here as well. But that small a margin, you aren't losing out on anything.
I installed it today. It was a bit more a pain in the ass than I had anticipated. It's much easier to do some of the work from the bottom. |

Driving impressions, honestly I didn't really crank into it yet. The day before I blew the charge pipe (22k on stage 2 93, 21psi spikes! unbelievable!) so I've been going easy on it for now. This weekend I'll get into it a bit more. |

I could tell I lost a bit of turbo spool noises as going from aluminium inlet to silicon will kill some sound, but overall WGDC is nice, it's sitting around 55-60 on WOT at 16psi. Pretty sure they're identical if you put them side by side, but for sure the MST and CTS inlets are bigger than pures inlet.

Please can you let me know which fittings you thought were better quality? Was it the CTS or MST? I am just about to buy one of these - do you still rate your CTS? Thanks. |
