I saw how much those disa kits cost it's insane dude I'm going to keep a look out for you dude.

Thanks man! Turner and tischer are both stupid expensive, but car-part is incredibly difficult to both get people to respond as well as to ensure its the right part.

called my bank to force Bavarian auto scum to return my money. once I have it back I'll be on a determined quest to find myself a proper manifold.

What utter bullshit.

This is why I use AMEX for my internet purchases. Absolutely ruthless buyer protection.

Chase bank got my return to me 3 hours later. So i'm a happy camper, time to find somebody who doesnt suck and will actually ship me the parts.

Sourced another manifold. Stig or anyone else, can you tell me if this is the correct manifold? 2008 328xi SULEV n51

I'm 95% sure that's the three stage disa manifold it looks to have the adjuster unit that is shown in this diagram#2 below I'm not an expert but I think that's the one

Im 99% sure its the correct one too. The nice guys that are selling it are grabbing me more pics and the part #'s to further confirm it. Will know by tomorrow if it's the one or not.

[TheSt|G]

Yes that is the right part if it is indeed from that car.

Part number should end in 9523.

Be aware that the part number on the manifold may not correlate with part numbers on RealOEM. Not sure why. Mine has a sticker that says "110915200650," which is the right format for a BMW part (specifically an engine part), but doesn't return a hit on RealOEM. The sticker also says "N52 B30 OL," which is apparently the designation for the High Output N52.

it's the correct manifold, purchased and shipping out on Monday. excited for this, I'm gonna try to find somebody to do the install.

[631twentyeighteye]

Would anybody happen to know if that tube in the 2nd picture happens to be a spare vent tube? In case i break mine in the removal process as some have.

[631twentyeighteye]

Found a guy for install, Still wondering if i should order those vent hoses or not in preparation of the swap. Also, i bought a zx1000g today, so.. My car will be put on the back burner after the manifold since i'll be enjoying my 135hp on a 500lb chassis.

Your stock vent hoses work fine, the only thing you need is fresh gaskets.

[631twentyeighteye]

Awesome! I have 6 brand new gaskets, 3 new nuts and 4 new bolts/studs also. Thanks stig!
