    For the intake pipe. 3.25 inch 45 degree silicone boot + 3.5 inch 90 degree boot. Slip one into the other and cut to size but works well. Overall great video

  • Thanks for the video man! I'm gonna copy everything you do, I trust your build already, keep it up!

    @Raimund just put ITB on his N52 running without TB hopefully they release the kit+tune soon

    You should definitly do a 3SIM vid for the views since it's so popular ! Great video tbh !

    Hey, great info, and thanks for taking the time to post this. What did you use to tune out the Disa valve error code. Thanks
  • @rezas6786
    You reckon I can do this with a n52 125i ?
  • @juxebeats5439
    im curious how the stock manual gearbox will hold up to boost, looking forward

    Hey man I have a question so I have a 2010 528i n52 I want to put the n54 manifold on my car but how would I go about the disa valve connector I would take it to a place in Vegas to tune but no shop is interested in helping. If you could give an insight I’d appreciate it

    Soo i have a 2005 325i looking to do this upgrade But i have a few questions Did you use any gasket on the block/ intake? or no gasket at all? And 2nd is it gonne give trouble with the disa valve? And how much power increase does it give? Is this more worth then the 330i 3stage inlet? Thnx for this video
  • @RShcherban
    How would the blow off valve will be managed with the valvetronik system - due to its work - in manifold, with boost, there will be no vacuum (throttle is not closed by 100% with valvetronik) ?
  • @HonzaVinCZ
    Doesn't N52 come out with crankcase breather oil separator? So why would you run catch can if oil separator is already present? I'm about to get N52 so I really appreciate videos like this one. I just need to get everything sorted out so I can work on it as well.
  • @ishd1144

    Where’d you get those skirt extensions?

    I would rather go with n54 manifold then the 3stage . I hate disa valve because of the plastic parts ... I have an 523i and I want to increase the power , I have only 177 hp but I bought it because of the good condition of the engine .I want to add more hp at least 218 like the 525i .What do you think , this n54 will help me with some power? I have the manifold with the single disa valve , the valve from disa it s almost broken in half , my only options are to buy a metal kit valve to repaire it or to buy this manifold from an n54 and to lose all the problems ... What do you think ? Thank you!
