Do you mean the HPF Charge Pipe? HPF are using the Synapse BOV but I ended up going with the ER Charge Pipe with Synapse BOV. The full HPF kit would have been nice though as I've got the HPF FMIC.

the fit just wasn't the same with the AA chargepipe after installing the HPF FMIC, it was way more tighter and had to pull on the stock outlet pipe a bit from the IC to get it to connect to the AA chargepipe.

I think HPF make great parts but we're just not a priority right now, maybe in a year or two things will start to pick up. They seem to be focussed on the E46 M3 right now.

We just finished completing our 335i intercoolers for the xi, coupe and sedan versions. Those are now live on our site. We also completed our "new" exhaust prototypes for the 335i sedan and 335xi. Those will be in production soon. In this video below you can check out the updates on our HPF 335i turbo systems.

Not sure what the status of the bov is at this point, would hold your breath. but i do know that they have the turbo upgrade in the works and have got the build started for manifold etc. prob release december if all goes smoothly, which I doubt since it is the first N54 they have upgraded the turbo/internals.

Ya I hope it gets released in December but it just isn't happening. They haven't even tackle the fueling yet. Besides hpf isn't known for there accurate due dates. If you remember correctly, when they said they're taking on the n54, they also said they would have a stage ready for May last year . Heck they've been saying they're finishing the manifold prototypes for the past few months. Don't get me wrong, I'm not hating on them. In fact I'm a potential customer. I'm just keeping it real because there's no point of coming up with dates. When it's ready, it's ready I guess.

LOL, about to do the same despite having an HPF FMIC... it's bullshit to tease a BOV kit and then delay it forever. Hope HPF is listening, cuz you're losing potential customers.

I feel ya since I'm also running a HPF intercooler and wanted to run them together, that's why I took off my AA BOV at the beginning of the year and sold it to get the HPF piece but 9 months later and still not even a ballpark eta . How long does it take to release a bent tube?

No kidding... this thread is from over a year ago with an ETA of 2-3 months. I realize HPF has alot of shit going on (like posting amateur videos), but it's foolish for the owner to post things like this up unless he's sure of it going to market.
