Charge pipe recommendation
Hey,
Looking to replace my charge pipe. I was looking to get the ER one and was hoping to pick up a lightly used one off someone but that doesn't seem to come up too often. I was looking online and noticed the VRSF one is under $200 and they have the Xdrive model now. Any one that has a Xdrive (I have 435i Xdrive) have any complaints or fitment issues? Just not looking to spend close to $400 for a brand new black ER one. Its just a pipe in the end haha. Car is all stock under hood and no plans for intercooler etc. The big price difference just makes me wonder. Last edited by anderson87; 05-25-2019 at 11:30 AM.. |

I installed a vrsf charge pipe on my 335i xdrive a couple days ago and fitment was perfect. I did install it along with the vrsf 5" hd fmic, but I don't see why it wouldn't connect to the stock intercooler just as well.

I don't have X-Drive, but I can attest that VRSF has no fitment issues. Don't be negatively swayed by the lower price point. Think of it as "value" vs "cheap". I have both the VRSF charge pipe and c/l downpipe (bought from mike over x-ph.com...highly recommended vendor), and I have zero issues on quality or fitment.

I just installed my vrsf CP in my 2014 335i. No issues with fitment. I did replace my intercooler at the same time with the vrsf intercooler so don’t know how it lines up with the stock intercooler.

VRSF is our most popular charge pipe option for Xdrive cars

It lines up perfectly with stock or most aftermarket intercoolers.
