CXRacing FMIC Install on N54

RimasRS · 07-08-2013, 02:01 AM

Thanks for sharing this...
I think googling 135i Big TOM intercooler DIY would help a little installing this one and it looks good something like Active Autowerke race version.

i did watch a couple of the videos for the big tom intercooler install. thats why i was confident i could figure out where to cut and didn't wait for them to get back to me. Now i need meth and more boost.

are you tuned? or stock? do you feel power gains?

I have JB4 G5 ISO, BMS downpipes, Injen Intake, Berk Race axle back, now CXRacing FMIC and ER charge pipe. Not to sure about the power gains. it always feels more powerfull after i dont drive it for 2 weeks. i had my car Dyno'd with the intake, JB4 G4 and axleback. i was told downpipes and FMIC would do wonders so i'm going to go back to the same dyno in a little while and see what those 2 mods did as far as increase in power.

I'll be at Bimmerfest east if anyone reading this wants to see it in person.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, did you cut the long chargepipe down? I have a lon aftermarket one and am wondering if I can just cut it shorter.

no. I didn't cut the stock one. I put it for sale on here and bought a short charge pipe with meth bung from E.R. I bet if you just cut it you would have problems with leaks. maybe not though. might find a buyer if you list it.
