Overview

The FTP F-N55 air intake pipe is a replacement for the original plastic air intake pipe, designed to improve airflow into the turbo.
Show original supplier description
The FTP Motorsports N55 Upgraded Turbo Inlet Pipe V2 is engineered to replace the restrictive factory plastic air intake pipe on F-series BMWs with the N55 engine. Unlike stock plastic components that can crack or break, this pipe is built for durability and longevity. Constructed with a focus on performance and reliability, the inlet pipe features a caliber increase to maximize air delivery to the turbo. Viton is a superior material to the original O-ring, ensuring a more durable and leak-free seal. The comprehensive fitment list includes a wide range of F-series BMW models such as the M135i (1' F20/F21), M235i/M2 (2' F22/F87/F23), 335i (3' F30/F31/F34/F35), and 435i (4' F32/F33/F36), covering specific production year ranges for each. Additional compatible models include various 5 Series, X1, X3, X4, X5, X6, and Z4 variants with the N55 engine.
