Overview

The FTP Motorsport charge pipe is a direct OEM replacement designed to increase flow and improve the reliability of BMW B48/B46 engines. It replaces the factory plastic pipe, which can fail under increased boost pressure, with a durable aluminum pipe. The increased piping size helps to reduce turbulence and maximize flow into the engine, and features a bung for water injection. This charge pipe is compatible with a wide range of BMW F and G chassis models, including the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 Series, and X3, X4, X5, X6 models. It also fits the Toyota Supra. Note that this part is not for sale or use in California on pollution-controlled vehicles.

Show original supplier description

The FTP Motorsport Charge Pipe V2 is a direct OEM replacement upgrade engineered for enhanced performance and reliability in BMW B48/B46 2.0T engines. Constructed from durable aluminum, it replaces the brittle factory plastic charge pipe that is prone to failure under increased boost pressures. This upgrade features increased flow, a larger diameter for reduced turbulence and maximized airflow, and 3-ply silicone couplers for a secure connection. It also includes a bung for water injection integration and comes with all necessary hardware, including an O-ring, seal, and C-clip. Performance testing indicates gains of up to 14.8 HP. The kit is compatible with a wide range of BMW models, including various F-chassis variants (e.g., 1' F20 LCI, 2' F22, 3' F30 LCI) and G-chassis variants (e.g., 3' G20, 5' G30, X3 G01), as well as the Toyota Supra A90 2.0T (2020 model).
